One and Only

"Ding Lei" (Bo Huang) is a veteran boss of the E-Mark street dancing team. His renowned lead dancer "Kevin" (Casper Chu) is a bit of a prima-donna and so when he alights on "Chen Shuo" (Wang Yibo) who is an hard working family lad to come along and help at the practice sessions then divisions soon appear and the battle lines are drawn for the ultimate in dancing challenges at the national championships. The story here is not great - nor, indeed as is the acting nor the writing. What is captivating, though, is the gravity-defying acrobatics as these guys spin, pivot and fly through the air with astonishing skill and dexterity. It's also illustrative of just how this art serves as an aspirational conduit for young men who have little by way of opportunity to escape from the mundanity of their day-to-day lives. Personally, I find Yibo Wang just bit too weedy as an actor - he's actually always a bit of a drip - but essentially this is a triumph for the choreographers art and the adroitness and spontaneity of the dancers that really delivers excitingly for the last twenty minutes.

Watched One and only yesterday with my son and we enjoyed it very much!!

The movie is so different than how it's publicized.. the movie actually focuses on street dance culture and a boy's dream !!

Main actor Chen Shou is so pitiful and many young kids who wants to pursue a career in dance culture but don't get the opportunities can relate!! The main theme of the movie..the dance battle!! It's so good!! For a movie made for Asian Game, it's a good one... .

My only complain is wish the editing was better though! I liked how all the characters have their own personalities but none came out because of flat editing.

I will still watch it again as it's good and also I need to finish reading all the subtitles lol.. Overall it's good watch with family and friends and for the street dance!

So I've seen a lot of drance movies over the years and the dancing is usually fun to watch but the acting and story end up being kind of cringey. This movie broke that stereotype for me. The movie centers around a boy by the name of Chen Shuo, played by Wang Yibo, whose passion for dancing and chasing after his dreams is both touching and inspiring. In a way, this movie also reflects the young actor Wang Yibo's own journey chasing after his dream of becoming a dancer and performer at a young age. The dance scenes were so exciting to watch! But I also felt myself tearing up during some of the more emotional scenes.

You know Chen is gonna win, you know he' s gonna suffer a lot, going thru ups and downs. Under the pace control and style combination, Re Lie delivers an extraordinarily smooth feeling from start to finish. Dong Chengpeng, a comedian-to-director who have brought out several box office hits which are phenomenal yet differ in themes, has proven himself to be one of the most promising directorial newcomers in Mainland China. Audiences follow the way the story goes, laugh and cry, over and over again. In the end, they find themselves not only witnessing the growth and rebirth of a character, but also the unsurrendered souls inside themselves. A must-see for street dance lovers, and still there's more in Re Lie-even for people who aren't.

All stars shine brightly In this movie. I can wholeheartedly feel their passion for street dance and their resilience to negativities. The final 20 minutes are sth really mesmerizing - worth every penny of my ticket and you won't regret your decision. I don't understand why there are so many low ratings but without any negative reviews - does not seem normal ...

YES I would Recommend this movie without any reservation. No matter you like street dance or not, I am sure you will find a lot to feel for and sth worth cheering for and laughing about. I felt really energized after watching and would like to see more people feel the same positivity :)
