Flashdance,Dirty Dancing ,SN Fever did it so much better

Rating: 1/10 (13 August 2006)

Take a rancid script a couple of no-name actors add a choreographer masquerading as a film director throw in every cliché in the book and you have ' Step Up ' . Anne Fletcher might be a hot choreographer with stage productions but not so good with film . Many of the dance scenes are shot from the waist up . What is the point ? The acting is universally wooden with no chemistry between the leads . All of the plot points are telegraphed and hammered home in a ,very, unsubtle manner . Some of the dancing is interesting but they would get kicked off of 'So you think you can dance' Hip-Hop has become its own cliché . A bad one at that . We surrender Hollywood.Enough of these 'teen' dance flicks .
