It's rare to find a film that portrays dancers of all shapes, colors, ages, and sizes as beautiful, which they are. Read full review

Tap World, also takes viewers around the world, and that, plus some flat out terrific performances, make this a surprisingly lovely little film. Read full review

The movie is at its best when Hargrove shows rather than tells. Anyone can appreciate these artists in motion, all of whom prove the infectious appeal of a dance that doesn’t just respond to rhythm but creates its own. Read full review

It would be better if it had a bit less proclaiming and a bit more nuts-and-bolts information, but still, it’s refreshing to see people bubbling over with enthusiasm for an art that is somewhat out of the mainstream. Read full review
