Sure Got Mine On!

A very cute little tale of the Southern California underworld action going on up in this film. This isn't one to watch if you're looking for an Oscar flick in the making but if your goal is too zone out with something entertaining for just a little over an hour then look no further! Some ravers complain that it wasn't accurate enough but think about it, I mean real shady stuff goes down at these parties and if they were to show it exactly as it is then the movie would be rated NC-17 at the least. The music was great and I thought it was neat how they had real life DJ's make some cameos. The multiple sub-plots made it interesting to follow because it switched between a couple of groups and I liked it since even though it did this I didn't find it confusing at all. The only flaw I really found was the acting tended to be a little weak but a handful actually did okay. I also thought the movie was too short and they definitely could've extended it to two hours and still have demanded my attention but with the low-budget they had it's to be expected. It got my mind off things for awhile and I enjoyed it.

Final Dance:

Movies: I wouldn't mind going if only to hear it on the gigantic speakers.

DVD Purchase: Will have to think about this for a little bit...but is a strong possibility.

Rental: I already want to watch it again!
