Fans of comedian Jamie Kennedy will probably best appreciate this lightweight comedy about a breakdancing fool who gets a second chance at stardom. Kennedy is top-billed as a hip-hop fanatic whose breakdancing moves put him in a coma circa 1987; 20 years later, he's revived and wants to reunite his crew, but finds they've moved on in less than spectacular ways. The affections of his school crush (TV reporter Maria Menounos) prove to be enough inspiration for him, but there's a former rival (Smallville's Michael Rosenbaum) to overcome. Kennedy is a funny performer, and he's well supported by Rosenbaum and Miguel Nunez Jr., as one of his crew, but an overreliance on bathroom humor and '80s kitsch is a clear signal that the screenwriters were floundering once they got past the initial concept. The Old Skool DVD includes full-screen and widescreen versions of the film, as well as a selection of deleted scenes. --Paul Gaita

Customer Reviews

An 80's Gem!
I know alot of people didn't appreciate and like this movie. That's because you are not taking it with a grain of salt. Take it for what it is...a fabulous 80's movie that keeps you interested because of all the hidden funny references. The songs in this movie are all GREAT and bring you back to when you were in grammar/middle/high school. WHY they don't have a soundtrack is absurd. Would have saved me alot of time looking up all the songs. It won't win an academy award or any award for that matter, but it is entertaining and very funny. Just give it a chance and I bet you WILL laugh and enjoy it.

Bootytraps!!

Kipin' it Real!
I grew up in the 80s, and this was really a blast from the past! It was unrealistic, corney at times, and definitely won't will any movie awards, however what ever happened to watching a movie simply for fun? It made me laugh and brought back all those 80s memories that I miss so much. Life as a child in the 80s was simple, without all the modern technologies (aka hassles). So, sit back, relax, and get ready for 80s nostalgia. Enjoy! Funky fresh boyz FOREVER!

Brings back great memories
Anyone who had the privilege of growing up a child of the 80's will find this film moderately funny. It has all the classic nuances that made the 80's! Garbage Pail Kids, Smurfs, Break dancing and Star Wars! How could you go wrong...? In short, if you want a short break from reality and want some great laughs, check it out!
