Step Up 2: The Streets

Rating: 5/10 (8 January 2011)

The first film was a good excuse for great choreographed street dancing, the story is obviously not as relevant, but the good news is there came this sequel with more great moves, possibly better ones. Basically in Baltimore, Maryland, Andie West (Briana Evigan) wants to be a big street dancing star being a member of the 410 crew, and they without permission or illegally use school premises to do their stuff. Andie is allowed into Maryland School of the Arts (MSA), with Chase Collins (Robert Hoffman) persuading Blake Collins (Will Kemp) to recruit her. Being involved in illegal competitions at The Streets, Andie is expelled from the school, but by the end she has her education secured with a great performance, her friend Moose (Adam G. Sevani) gets a kiss from Sophie (Cassie Ventura), and Andie gets with Chase. Also starring Sonja Sohn as Sarah, Danielle Polanco as Missy, Telisha Shaw as Felicia, Black Thomas as Tuck, Channing Tatum as Tyler and Christopher Scott as Hair. Okay, I will be honest, there wasn't much story I was paying the fullest attention to, it was all the dancing, including in a club with trampolines, and the brilliant choreographed routines that are to watch closely, so for that, a good romantic dance drama. Worth watching!
