this was a DANCE movie! - February 15, 2008

Rating: 9/10 (15 February 2008)

I saw the movie yesterday, and am going to see it again! Why? It was excellent!! From the start to the amazing finish, it was awesome. The dancing in the movie was beyond SICK. I mean, the choreographers should be given a cut of the profits. THAT'S HOW SICK THE DANCING WAS! Some people want dialogue/substance to a movie. But Step Up 2 was a D-A-N-C-E movie. Who cares if they can act their way to an Oscar nomination? Who pays hard-earned money to go see a D-A-N-C-E movie, thinking they're going to get great dialogue? This was definitely WAY better than the first.
The only other dance routine on par with anything this movie offered, was the "Double or Nothing" scene in "Stomp the Yard" (but I'm still thinking there's gotta be something from "You Got Served"). And the other recent dance movie "How She Move" was very good, but NOT ENOUGH dancing (Step Up 2 DID NOT have this problem).
So, why only 9 out of 10? Only because of a specific scene in the movie.
So, there ya have it. A more-than-satisfied customer.
