When films on creativity are made the filmmaker should be careful in striking the right chord with the audience. The performances, production venture and dance sequences (for this film, which is of that genre)should be indeed exemplary. And here then, Breaking Through (with a striking title) only wins half the game.

Sophia Aguiar gains the status of a star, and she is caught in the dilemma of choosing between her friends or her stardom. Then there is the self-realization process of Sophia.

Sometimes you have everything but due to the excessive hype in the networking you are (here Sophia( forced to believe that we don't have the required talent in us. Sophia is now a cat on the wall; to give up or still hold. And manager Jay Ellis is instrumental in bringing her to stardom. Well, I don't want to leak out the end. Watch the film to know what happens next.

The movie can be seen once for its dance moves, and the choreography of Ian Eastwood is average.

Sometimes, the clichés leave you boring. The direction of John Swetnam (who is also the writer) could have been done better. This film a coming-of-age film. John Swetham has collaborated with DanceOn (a group in YouTube) for bringing the dancing spirit to the movie.

Sophia Aguiar is her charming self in the movie. Robert Roldan is at his versatile best, and it’s a treat to watch him on screen.

On the flip side, the story has nothing exciting to tell and the performers work as if it is a high school play.

Analysis

Creativity should be fully utilized for such type of films, and this movie lacks in that.

Verdict:

The families can surely watch this film. Those who dream of becoming a dancer will surely connect with this movie. This  film would be surely heartening of them. Also, this movie indeed delivers a beautiful message.
