All right, everyone go watch Benson Lee's Planet B-Boy, opening in theaters starting today from Elephant Eye Films. It's a fantastic documentary set in the international world of B-boying, following crews from all over the world competing and colliding at the "Battle of the Year," where the winner will walk away with title of World Champion. It's an engaging, hugely entertaining documentary with a lot of heart, and deserves to be seen by as many people as possible. I can't recommend it enough.HAROLD & KUMAR ESCAPE FROM GUANTANAMO BAY
[Editor's note: Having seen this in sneak preview on Wednesday, I'll say this--if you liked the first one, you'll enjoy this one too.]
