About
You may enjoy this if you like gentle, offbeat comedies with physical humor, heartfelt romance, and a near-silent style in the spirit of Lost in Paris; Not for you if you want a straight dance movie or broad, fast laughs.
Pros: charming dance moments; warm quirky tone; inventive visual storytelling | Cons: uneven pacing; very sparse dialogue; slapstick may grate
