Break

Lucie, a dancer, has an accident. When she wakes up from her coma, she and her partner begin training for a dance performance. Along the way, she begins looking for her father, a path that could lead her to a life-changing love.

The opening scenes of dancing in the air, hanging from the building with ropes, beautiful and delicate, risky, falsely led me to believe that it would be a different film about dance, a big mistake, taking the trauma of the protagonist aside, the film rowed to nowhere, swam and died on the beach, boring, I lost interest in less than 15 minutes, but I went to the end, like a good cinephile, #SQN...

I really loved this movie The choreography at the Beginning and at the End of the movie were very VERY beautiful!!! The feelings!!! Especially at the end of the movie. Breathtaking!!

I loved the storyline. And the variety of dancing types really made this movie a delight to watch. This is a great French speaking movie. I watched with English subtitles.

See what I did there? I added a word to the title and the result is ... well what the movie is about (?). That is more or less, because this is not just about dancing. It is about freedom and it is about love too. Things to be expected many probably will say and yes this is predictable to a degree at least. Still the drama is very well drawn out and the story makes sense.

Our main character has flaws as has her love interest. Drama as some might call it (all will call it?). But you need that to make an enticing viewing and movie. The dance scenes, the other very important factor here, are very well choreographed and incorperated into the dramatical structure of the movie. If you are into dance movies, this will tickle your excitement bone ...

I was under the impression this movie was about breakdancing... It is not. It is however about dancing, stage performance, and i must admit it does contain some impressive dancing, especially the breakdancing, the stage performance is cool too... But it is not breakdancing.

This whole movie is about a dancer who has to make a stage performance for a... Thing... Anyway she goes to some city, and is inspired by breakdancing, and sets out to get a teacher. They have 3 weeks to make a performance, so they focus on making it unique... Which is funny because the movie is not. Unique that is.

The movie has weird pacing, it feels offbeat, the then story feels off too, it lacks motivation and emotion, you never really get a feel for the character or why they are pressuring this goal.

The goal that is set to be the ultimate goal is then defeated, to be replaced by a new goal... combined with the sup plot and drama.... So it all kinda feels ruched because it all has to happen in only 1 hour and 37 minutes

All in all i was left a bit disappointed by the lack of actual breakdancing and unfocused due to pacing. I did enjoy some of the movie, some of it was cool.
