A surprisingly lovely little film.

Director and cast
Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
An infectiously spirited and pleasingly celebratory documentary about the globe-spanning appeal of American-style tap dance.
It would be better if it had a bit less proclaiming and a bit more nuts-and-bolts information, but still, it's refreshing to see people bubbling over with enthusiasm for an art that is somewhat out of the mainstream.
The movie is at its best when Hargrove shows rather than tells. Anyone can appreciate these artists in motion, all of whom prove the infectious appeal of a dance that doesn't just respond to rhythm but creates its own.
Director Dean Hargrove's claim to fame was inventing "Matlock." After sitting through "Tap World," I can assure you it still is.
