Critic Reviews
-
Nick Schager, Village Voice
The film's portrait of disaffected urban teens proves an evocative tribute to the vitality of youth.
-
Ronnie Scheib, Variety
A highly cinematic restaging of a jazzy 1958 Jerome Robbins "ballet in sneakers," Jody Lee Lipes and Henry Joost's NY Export: Opus Jazz thoroughly revitalizes the piece's once timely choreography.
-
Phil Hall, Film Threat
Fairly dismal.
-
Diego Costa, Slant Magazine
Embraces the notion of dancers as characters with histories, more than just beautifully coordinated fleshly parts.
