Not Too Bad

Rating: Null/10 (23 March 2008)

I admit I was a little skeptical of this movie, seeing as I was such a big fan of the first movie. I was however pleasantly surprised:
The story line wasn't quite as tacky as I had thought it would be and it did have its own unique style.
Although the music and acting wasn't nearly as good. At times it seemed a little overdone! It seemed as though the script and the actors were trying to way over dramatise everything and it kind of spoiled the intensity that made Step Up such a brilliant movie. I think over dramatising it made it a little monotonous and confusing because it left the audience wondering "Ok so what exactly is the issue here" or "Wow is everything just wrong in this world".
Overall though, I would say it is worth watching but I would recommend you thinking of it as a movie of its own and not a sequel as I believe it will make it all the more enjoyable to the viewer. It is definitely a bit of a feel good film, in a slightly corny way. But NOT at all comparable to the original if you ask me.
