The dancing was excellent, and I'm not a fan of ballet. The effort, strength and hard work were evident in the portrayal of these characters. The story line was just OK, kinda predictable, a bit of a letdown.

This movie was excellent! Contrary to some reviewers, I didn't find it depressing at all. This was an energized, focused, psychological movie.
There was intensity which was offset by very brief moments of humour. Well paced. Well choreographed and filmed. Very convincing performances.
Be prepared to better understand how ballet performers embrace and truly embody their art.
