All Stars is a 2013 British film that was directed by Ben Gregor. The movie was released in the United Kingdom on 3 May 2013, and stars Theo Stevenson as one of two children trying to save their youth centre.
When their youth centre is threatened with closure, six children decide to come together and put on a dance show. Each has their own reason for performing aside from saving the youth centre. Jaden (Akai Osei-Mansfield) loves to dance but is forbidden to do so by his scholastically motivated parents. Ethan (Theo Stevenson) hopes to impress the girl of his dreams. Amy (Fleur Houdijk) holds a secret crush on Ethan and hopes to use this as an outlet for the emotions she has from taking care of her comatose father. They're helped along by Brian (Gamal Toseafa), Tim (Dominic Herman-Day), and Rebecca (Amelia Clarkson), and they all hope to manage to save the centre and make their hopes come true.
Critical reception for All Stars has been predominantly mixed and the movie holds a rating of 54% "rotten" on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 13 reviews.Den of Geek panned the film and wrote "Very young kids might find some enjoyment in All Stars, but it's corny, light-entertainment cinema at its most irritating."
