An OK film with street dancing

Rating: 7/10 (21 March 2008)

So once upon a time my little sister tells me to see Step Up, as I myself am a pro dancer and she assumed I would like it. It was showing in-flight so I stayed up and watched it. Afterwards I was angry because I would've rather slept for the 2 hours.
So I get invited to see Step Up 2 at an advance screening and expected the worst. As soon as I recognized BBoy Crumbs in the first scene I knew the dancing would be good. And it was. The producers did their homework with casting proper dancers, there are some world famous BBoys (breakdancers) in this movie (Crumbs, K-Mel, Machine). Not to mention some great Poppers & HipHop dancers. (including a cameo by the Jabbawockeez crew) The acting is a bit cheesy as you would expect, but we do end up feeling for the characters. The plot is quite silly and very predictable.
If you like street dancing, see the movie for the choreographed scenes.
I gave it a 7/10 If you don't like dancing 4/10
