Customer Rating:
Summary: Great film!
Comment: Can't say enough good about this film, especially how it illustrates the power and sometimes painful relationship played out between a traditional father and an atypical boy. I couldn't help but cry at the end.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Video worth watching....repeatedly
Comment: I purchased this video as a gift for a dear friend. We both love the story and found it transfers well to any country, age, gender. I sincerely recommend it .
Billy Elliott received it's highest compliment when Sir Elton John saw it and proceeded to create Billy Elliott the musical on Broadway! He related his life with his father to the story.
Enjoy it!

Customer Rating:
Summary: Cheerful, positive winner
Comment: Young Billy Elliot (Jamie Bell) defies macho convention as well as his close-minded father (Gary Lewis) and older brother (Jamie Draven) to pursue his love of dancing in a small English mining town during a strike.

This delightful film just made me happy with its cheerful T-Rex-heavy soundtrack, exuberant performances, and quirky characters. It's pretty clear how everything is going to turn out at the end, and some of the changes of heart undergone by certain character may not be entirely convincing, but this remains a sunny, upbeat film. Despite the language, which earns it an R rating, it also presents a positive message for young people about being willing to think outside boundaries and resist stereotypes.
