- TriviaDavid Reivers who plays Corbin Bleu's dad in the movie is his dad in real life.
- GoofsIn the City Finals, as the first routine (with Keke Palmer's song, It's My Turn) is ending, right before Keisha and Izzy do the flip, you can identify that the stunt double is jumping rope instead of Izzy. The complexion of the skin is different and if you pause at the right time you can see the stunt double's face.

Featured review
I watched this movie on Monday night and let me tell you, I thought it was great! I never knew that double-dutch is taken so seriously by some people. I think that Corbin Bleu did an excellent job playing Izzy in the movie. He is such a great actor and him doing all the gymnastic moves in the beginning was great! Some people may think that the movie was taken place in the "ghetto" but there was nothing ghetto about it. It's just a movie where a young teenage boy who is a boxer, wants to give it up because it's his fathers dreams. Not his. This movie shows that you can do anything if you put your mind to it. Don't let anyone stop you. Corbin and KeKe Palmer are great workers together. You can easily tell that they have great chemistry with one another. I believe that you guys would enjoy this movie. Only if you can understand the true meaning of double-dutch and how it's taken seriously about something. It's not just about jumping rope, but about putting your heart and soul into something you really want to do.
