Swing Kids

Anyone else enjoy this film as much as I did? It seems as though it's very underated considering I never hear anyone say anything about it. Anyways, those of you who have seen it what do you think? Those of you that didn't you can get it dirt cheap for $6.99 at DDD, here's the link.

Hey Ignite-
(I'll try this again) My wife and I really enjoyed "Swing Kids." In fact, when it first came out on DVD, I made sure I went out and picked it up. We got ours at our local Best Buy for like $6.99/$7.99 tops. Just to let you know, its a "bare bones" presentation and the sound is only in surround ( 2.0) but it still looks and sounds very good and you can't beat the price. So if you like it as much as us ( I like jazz/big band and that time period ( Art Deco) its worth a purchase, you won't be disappionted. Well, that's my two cents..Enjoy!

Swing Kids is a great movie, have watched it many times since it was originally released. Wish there was a better release for it, never looked out of the R1 region for it though, maybe there is something else better out there.

Nice to see I'm not the only one on the planet who thought this was an undeserved failure. (It took in less than $6 mllion during its run in 1993.)

I enjoyed this movie and bought the dvd. Unbelievable price! I was pleasantly surprised to see it was anamorphic as well!
