Boring...

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...

Nice story and some good dancing too

I'm a sucker for dance movies and this one didn't disappoint, except for the final scene perhaps.

The acting is good and the way the film was shot is beautiful, someone really thought about the persepctive and angles of the camera.

The characters were believable and there wasn't anything "try hard" about it, which I sometimes find in dance movies.

Some of the dance scenes were really nice, but the final choreography didn't work for me, the dance was too edited and chopped, so I couldn't really see what the dancing was supposed to be.

On the whole I think the story of Lucie and Vincent was more prominent than the dancing, but that's alright by me, since the acting and story was so nice.

Definitely worth a watch!

One of the better dance based movies I've seen

Unlike many dance focused movies, this was complete with excellent dancing, believable acting, and good character development.

I wish more American dance movies had the realism Break has.

Both leads were very good. What is extremely rare is that their acting and dancing stand on their own. So many dancers of this caliber have trouble being believable as straight actors, but they are the exception.

I recognized the female lead, Sabrina Ouazani from a cute French Series called the Hookup Plan. Had no idea she was a dancer! She is adorable and hilarious in the Hookup Plan, so I figured there was nothing to lose by checking this movie out. What a nice surprise!

The male lead, Keven Mischel is absolutely exceptional. There is a scene where he is dancing on his own and IT IS RIVETING. I have never seen someone move like that and I have seen a plethora of dancers of all styles. He has his own language and it is quite special. And with all that, he is a very, very good actor. So rare to be at that high of a level at both disciplines. Interested in seeing him dance more. He is OUTSTANDING.

For anyone that enjoys gifted and special break dancers, this is not to be missed. There are some break/hip hop dancers that have supporting roles that are also well worth watching.

I would rate this higher if the story line wasn't lacking just a little in a couple places, especially in the beginning.
