The opening scene of a Miami traffic jam gave jam a whole new meaning. Every dance routine was pure magic, with each one so unique and well thought out that I couldn't wait to see what they would come up with next. Was the lesson learnt when they did end up getting arrested? You'll have to watch to find out.The creative team behind the scenes are innovative, creative geniuses. A far cry from being positive role models. The Mob hack into security systems, turn up uninvited to VIP social events, turn a fancy restaurant into a burlesque show, and cause traffic chaos, all in order to get noticed but at the risk of getting arrested. Youth honouring the art of dance and going for something by working hard at it.It's disappointing though, that teenagers are so often portrayed as rebellious law breakers. The sheer hard work, dedication and heart and soul that each dancer puts into their performance is what makes this movie a pleasure to watch. These guys take street dancing to a whole new level of professionalism with such a mix of dance styles and some parkour thrown in for extra spice.
They come up with spectacular dance routines that leave the public breathless, regardless of the intrusion. Take the movie for what it is – pure entertainment – and leave the rest behind because no one is going to believe that a group of poor street dancers would have the funds or resources to put together such masterful dance routines, let alone conduct them in high security buildings during VIP events.The Mob is the name for the group of street dancers, lead by Guzman, who mob public areas in an attempt to get noticed and win $100K for getting 10 million hits on You Tube.
Sound familiar? Yes, but the story is so well put together visually and creatively that the ride is smooth and very pleasing to the eye. Down the poor boy's Latino neighbourhood in the name of progress and beautification of what he refers to as a slum.
