This should have been as wonderful as Red Hot Ballroom or nearly as excellent as 8 Mile. BUT, the editor and cameraman couldn't control their egos enough to let the super talented B Boys do their thing. Not once are we allowed to see more than a few seconds of each number -- never a whole performance -- even though one of the three important prizes is awarded for choreography. We are never allowed to see the talent from the audience's point of view -- even though we see the audience reaction way too much. Why can't editors and cameramen understand that dance performances are choreographed to be viewed by an audience, and we do not need nor want the film crew to reinterpret the choreography nor hack up the visual impact and dramatic structure with camera tricks?
