Hip-hop fans should flock to Planet B-Boy to see what break dancing looks like around the world, but so should movie-musical and performance-art fans who love intelligent and aggressive improvisation and energy.

If Benson Lee's intention with Planet B-Boy was to set the record straight on the continuing story of break dancers, then his documentary has to be counted a success. With a few caveats.

What they all have in common, as Quik, a member of Japan's Ichigeki Crew, explains, is a passion for the border-busting power dance, movement as a movement, freedom of expression, wild-style.

Great entertainment backed with profound social and cultural insight about the worldwide grass roots importance of breakdancing. After admiring the dancers' athleticism, you'll want to hit the gym.

Product Description:
Though breakdancing hit the public consciousness in the 1970s and '80s, this style is still going strong. This documentary chronicles groups of break dancers, also known as "b-boys," in their quest to be the best in the world. Appropriately, PLANET B-BOY got its world premiere at the prestigious Tribeca Film Festival in New York City, the birthplace of the b-boy phenomenon.
