Break

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 leave in French-speaking Switzerland so it wasn't difficult for me to watch this film in the cinema. I was entranced by the story, the characters, the music, the dancing... it went by quickly even though it was my first French language movie without subtitles! Stromae and his song deserve a special mention, but the actors playing the two main characters also do a fantastic job. I'm being vague about the plot because I think the less you know about it, the better: suffice it to say that it's a drama, that it features dancing (different styles) and that it packs a punch. Don't miss it!

Okay so I usually don't leave reviews but this movie. Omg. Everything is perfect, from plot, to soundtrack, actors, literally everything!

In Nflix's usual fashion, they don't bother to tell you it's a French film. It does have English audio but once I figured out it was dubbed I switched to the original French. This film is not complex enough to worry about large paragraphs of subtitles and the original voices are nicer (although the voice actors did a great job), plus French sounds so beautiful. I felt the film was quite slow and without much substance. There were too many long moments, to show emotion, that were inappropriate, especially while trying out for a big dance production. The lead actors were clearly not real dancers and those scenes were just part of the story as opposed to offering the viewer a wonderful performance. The camera chops up the visual too much in the effort to hide the fact these 2 can't really dance well. Their dancing was so filled with effort and clumsiness. The really great dancing was extremely limited but at least 2 fun break-dance battles with good choreography. This is not a dance film, it's just a drama about 2 dancers with personal challenges that manage to meet. But it is very romantic in the parts. There's a really beautiful song near the end (tourner la page essayer de vivre ) - it's called Vivre by Slimane.

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...
