Tanya’s Score: Good-and-a-half*
Rated: PG (with lots of language)
Starring: Rocketman’s song partner – all growed down
Plot: A talented young boy (Jamie Bell) living in an England coal mining town finds himself drawn into the world of dance.
Tanya’s Verdict: This is one of those low-budget movies with a simple plot that surprises with its depth and emotion. Every single character is given a story – a real story; a good story. It’s always nice to re-watch a 20-year-old movie that you have a recollection of enjoying and experience it all over again.
My kids really liked it too.
