03/13/2010 Not an anti-semitic movie, but it definitely stood out as a non-semitic movie. No trace of music from the Arab or Jewish world. The latter criticism seems quite odd in the face of the New Yorkness of the Stomp aesthetic- but alas, they're from Brighton. Even the Flamenco roots seemed cleansed. Don't get me wrong, there's some great music (highlight for me being the soulful sounds of the Moremogolo Tswana), but I don't think I'd ever pay money to see Stomp live or pay admission to this film (I have an annual Imax pass). It's like Bobby McFerrin - great idea, but I'd rather see real folks do it for free on the streets of NYC or London (or *insert any metropolis here*) than at Opera House prices with a bunch of upper middle class twats doing their token cultural experience for the year. At the same time, at least there's this to cater to folks who would otherwise think the extent of culture is Andrew Lloyd Webber - so I'm grateful for that. But anyone with their finger on the real "pulse" knows they can access any of this music in more authentic ways. See more 03/08/2010 It was pretty good but there was no narration, and no story. It was just one loooong song! See more 05/25/2008 My son and I went to see this movie at the IMAX theatre in Fair Park. We really enjoyed the music and he sat still through the whole movie...good for a 3year old. The different styles of percussion instruments and rythms make this a great movie for music lovers.
