EW's GRADE
B+

Details Limited Release: Sep 23, 2005; Rated: PG-13; Length: 110 Minutes; Genre: Comedy; With: Bow Wow; Distributor: Fox Searchlight Pictures

A roller-disco movie that delivers a happy jolt of pleasure. Set in 1978, it immerses us in the eager daze that ruled the final moment before the dawn of hip-hop. Director Malcolm D. Lee uses the great riffs of Chic and KC & the Sunshine Band to create a kind of Saturday afternoon fever.
