Beat Street is just an awesome movie. It's a great movie about modern art; Graffiti, dance/break dancing, rapping, & DJing/mixing. It’s truly awesome. At the heart of the movie, is a group of friends who do all of the previously stated arts. I like how a lot of the movie is straight dancing & break dancing. Back then, all they did had heart. Ramo & Kenny did what they do with passion. Ramo told both Kenny & his father straight forward; he's not just tagging trains, walls, etc he tells them he's making art, beautiful art for the entire city to see. Kenny, being an amazing DJ, does what he does simply because he likes it. He hears thing he likes and puts them together for others to enjoy.
Beat Street is just a fun movie! From the start, we got people dancing as it jumps from scene to scene. Another reason the movie is great, IT TAKES PLACE IN THE 80's!!! Today everybody try to emulate the style in the 80's one way or another. The music is definitely just as awesome today as it was then. Everybody just loves 80's music; something about it makes everybody want to dance! And when you combine that music with old school rapping, which is just awesome, you got yourself a recipe for awesomeness; not to mention you got the awesome dance moves.
I also really like that throughout the movie, there's a general positive, fun, energetic vibe. Of course there was that sad point when Ramo died, but right after, Kenny brings everyone's spirits up by making a mix that is all about remembering Ramo, he made it so we weren't mourning for Ramo, we all appreciated him, and appreciated his work which is what Ramo would have wanted.
Kenny & Ramo, these guys were what made the movie awesome for me
