Twenty five years after its original release Breakdance The Movie is without a doubt still the original and best breakdance film: a movie inspired by a street movement that went on to spread the craze wider and further than anyone anticipated.
Now, get out your lino, stick on your ghetto blaster and don your cap as Breakdance– and its sequel Breakdance 2 Electric Boogaloo – spin on to DVD courtesy of Second Sight.
The freshest DVDs of 2009 will be released in their full widescreen glory for the first time in the UK on 6 April 2009.
Breakdance was a genuine phenomenon, an independent film that grew out of thenascent hip hop craze that was sweeping across both sides of the Atlantic and wenton to bring it to an even wider audience.
With a thumping soundtrack including the top 10 hit There’s No Stopping Us by Ollie & Jerry and Rufus and Chaka Khan’s Ain’t Nobody, Breakdance will have you doing windmills, crazy legs and headspins in no time.
