Battle B-Boy

Great film with a positve message
This was a fun film with a positive message, I think this is something new and different. We need more films like this with this type of new talent.

Battle B-Boy (non-spoiler) Review
The movie was great. It had all the thrilling dance/combat sequences to satisfy any thrill-seeking dance or martial arts fan, but it also had more. To call it a dance movie would be to do it a disservice since it had none of the crappy stuff found in most dance films.

Kreng, who plays Jimmy and serves as stunt coordinator for the movie.
He is the author of Fight Choreography: The Art of Non-Verbal Dialogue
which is a must read for anyone involved with martial arts and action
choreography. He...
