It was so-so. Not good, but not terrible. I liked hearing their stories, but didn't like how it overall gave off the impression that "battle of the year" is the epitome of bboying. I'd like to see a film or documentary that focuses purely on bboying and how its changed over the past almost 4 decades and to show it as an art form but I digress. I liked Inside the Circle way more than Planet B-Boy.

well there already is that documentary out called The Freshest kids why make the same movie again you know. And Inside the Circle was a good movie but it made all the bboys looks like a bunch of delinquents that droped out of school. I personally thought the movie gave bboys a bad rap but thats my opinion.

What makes you think it would be the same movie? The Freshest Kids is a good general 101 on hiphop locking and popping for people that don't know much about it, but it wasn't as in depth on bboying as an art and how it is alot deeper than people think. I never got the impression that all of them were delinquents, to me it just focused on their individual real struggles and that they're more than just bboys. But then again, maybe they were delinquents lol. I know I used to be before I was breaking.
