Arts movie High Strung has a goofy script and a clichd plot, but the dance sequences and musical performances are memorable, ambitious, and highly enjoyable.

Rated: 3/5

"High Strung" wears its tired let's-put-on-a-show clichs as if they were neon turquoise leg-warmers.

Sure, this is all a familiar tune - but it's still catchy.

As in love with dance as The Red Shoes, this spinning, leaping and quite fun dervish of a film should prove an audience pleaser.

Stunning ensemble dancing actually shows a correlation between hip-hop and classical ballet.

UGHHHHHH I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!!!!!!!!! It is so freakin' cheesy and dramatic and I am soooo totally here for it dude! bro, everytime I go to watch this movie I'm like "oh yeah I remember liking this movie" and then by the end I'm like "bruh! wait ahh this is so cute! this is so much better than I remember!" I love it so much, its funny, "serious", adorable, romantic, and dumb, all the perfect ingredients for a terrific movie eeeheheheheheeeee I love how they make things so dramatic and do or die, like its not supposed to be a lighthearted cheesy romcom this movie has me in all sorts of ways I'm anxious, on the edge of my seat, then I'm like "awww couple goals", and I be cheering, crying, giggling, etc. etc. etc. it's so great. cute plot, cool actors, awesome dancing, fun over the top ending and over all a super awesome cute movie! 10/10 will watch again (many times lol)
