Viewing Notes

Second movie in Jeff’s takeover of TRR TV with his program of music/dance films released by Cannon. This one also by the same director (who also directed BREAKIN’). This one was better in some ways and worse in others, the odd drama/musical mashup that comes across too corny most of the time despite some fun rap numbers sprinkled throughout. While I am glad to have finally seen this one (and LAMBADA before it) I would not watch these movies again.
