Very formulaic, but I still found a decent amount of entertainment value in it.

Rating: 6/10 (27 September 2013)

After Channing Tatum broke out, they decided to make this into a franchise. The sequels would grow increasingly tiresome, I just felt with every sequel they would rehash the storyline from the original, but in different ways, but this one is actually decent for what it is. The gorgeous Brianna Evigan takes over the lead in this one, and does a solid job. Her bubbly, yet defiant personality was a treat to watch. I'm surprised her career hasn't taken off like I expected. Robert Hoffman lacks Channing Tatum's charisma, but he made for an OK, if underwhelming lead. He & Brianna lack the spark that Channing & Jenna Dewan have. The dance scenes are fairly good. Around the beginning of the film, Channing Tatum has a quick cameo at a dance club of sorts, and to be honest the movie could have used him fully. Overall though, I had an OK time with this movie
Final Thoughts: It won't turn your world upside down, but if you enjoyed the original like I did, I'm sure you'll find things to like about this one. Worth a look
6/10
