"Viewers will find themselves immersed in a song-filled, universally relatable story about chasing dreams and building community."

"In a pleasant way, it felt like a feature-length version of that moment in Fame when all the kids start dancing and singing around the yellow cab outside New York's High School of Performing Arts."

"A cool breeze blowing on sweat-beaded skin."

"Basking in the film's ceaseless swirl is as intoxicating a moviegoing experience as one could want these days..."

"It's joyful."

"A large ensemble of engaging performances holds together this bursting-at-the-seams picture..."

"A musical triumph, unafraid to lift its voice up to the sky."
