Nick Schager, Slant Magazine
That Raya's rhythmic, stomp-heavy dance performances provide her with an outlet for rage and grief would be more corny if Wesley's dancing wasn't so ferocious, and if Rashid's depiction of his tale's ... full review

May 26, 2008this movie is a lot better than feel the noise. the sad part is that you have to wait until the last dance of the movie to see something really good in the whole movie.
