Viewing Notes

Outside of XANADU, BREAKIN’ is my first exposure to a dance fantasy movie: the type of fantasy where street dancing is taken entirely too seriously and people have public dance battles when they have a beef with each other. It entirely deserves its own drinking game. Every time someone is serious about street dancing, take a shot. Every time a new bad actor appears on screen, take a shot. Every time Ice T raps terribly in the background, take a shot. You’ll be dead of alcohol poisoning by the time the movie is over.
