Leave your thoughts about High Strung.
| Chesapeake Family MagazineRoxana HadadiArts movie High Strung has a goofy script and a clichéd plot, but the dance sequences and musical performances are memorable, ambitious, and highly enjoyable. |
| Village VoiceRobyn BahrWhat it loses in thematic richness, the uncynical High Strung makes up for in pure joy. |
| The Hollywood ReporterStephen FarberDirector Michael Damian does not bring any special spark to the film, but he recognizes the talents of his cast and allows them to shine. |
| New York PostSara StewartThe journey to this foregone conclusion features several dance-offs mashing up contemporary and classical styles, which director Michael Damian (“Love By Design”) shoots with gusto. Sure, this is all a familiar tune — but it’s still catchy. |
| New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisThe dialogue may be dire, but the dancing is delightful. |
| Los Angeles TimesMichael RechtshaffenIn the end, you'll either succumb to the silliness of it all and cheer Johnny B. on to his green card or, more likely, be in desperate need of your own exit visa. |
| Common Sense MediaBarbara ShulgasserHip-hop and classical artists stop, collaborate, and learn. |
| User ReviewHope2259 HAbsolutely loved it, amazing choreography, visually beautiful with outstanding dancing sequenzes and musical performances. Heartwarming story and amazing actors and dancers. Loved the music, full of energy and rhythm. A pure delight and highly recommendable for everyone. |
| User ReviewJahari WThis movie was beautiful. The emotion in Johnny Blackwell's playing and the dancers dancing is so real you would not believe they were filming. Though they couldve shared a little more info about Jazzy's situation. |
| User ReviewSummer BI absolutely loved this movie. I give it a big two thumbs up. |
