Yea muscles are responsible for movement
Of all the muscles contracting simulataneously, the one that is mainly responsible for producing a particular movement is called the prime mover for that movement. The other muscles that help in producing the movement are called synergists. As prime movers and synergists muscles at a joint contract, other muscles, called antagonist muscles, relax.When antagonist muscles contract, they produce a movement opposite to that of the prime movers and their synergist muscles. -- I wrote kind of alot so you can under stand it just in case if you don't :)

cerebellum directing the muscles
Yes, skeletal muscles are responsible for the movement of limbs in the body. They contain muscle fibers that contract and relax, causing the bones they are attached to move. Skeletal muscles also play a role in producing smiles, as they assist in the movement of the muscles in the face that create facial expressions.
Opposing muscles use connective tissues to cause movement in a joint.

The muscle that is responsible for most of a movement is called a prime mover. It may also be called an agonist.
The muscle performs many important functions for the body. It produces movement, maintains posture and gives shape to your body, stabilizes joints, and generates heat. Muscles protect your internal organs as well. The visceral or smooth muscles assist in the circulation of blood. The skeletal muscles are responsible for uncontrolled motions, and your cardiac muscles make your heart beat automatically.
