Billy Elliot

AudienceAudience: 8.2

Set in County Durham, England in 1984, a young boy who loves dance gets pulled into a world of pressure and change. As his talent grows, he struggles with family expectations and social rules while pursuing a place in a big musical about identity and belonging.

My take

If you love uplifting stage-to-screen musicals with big emotion and impressive dance, Billy Elliot is a strong pick; Not for you if you want a light, purely conventional story with easy-to-remember songs, or if you prefer less dance-focused titles like Rocketman.
