perfect

Rating: 10/10 (17 November 2007)

So one word. Amazing! Step up is definitely the best movie i have ever seen. I am a teenage girl, so it is pretty obvious that Channing Tatum(Tyler Gage) is hot, but even with that everything else was amazing. The acting was great, the dancing was great. The drama in this movie was like nothing else. The music is catchy and placed in the perfect places. The plot is great; a teenage white troublemaker living in foster care in a ghetto afro-American community. This movie shows people how harsh living in areas like that are. From alcoholic parents, to breaking in a school without even a second thought, to stealing cars, and finally to drive-byes. Skinny's death was extremely sad, but the turning point in Step Up. Without the death, nothing would have fallen into place like it did. The love story is great. Having a girl like Nora, rich, artistic, with a loving family, and then Tyler, a poor artistic, but foster child is good. Even though most teenage dramas have that plot, opposites attract, this is beyond anything I've seen. With Nora already being together with Brett, and not fully admitting her attraction to Tyler, its in a way, suspenseful. The drama. love story between Nora and Tyler isn't the only love story in the movie, which also parts Step Up from other movies. The love story between Miles and Lucy is perfect, with Lucy dating a "sophisticated, real man" named Colin she denies her attraction to Miles. I would highly recommend this movie to anyone, even if you aren't into dramas, it is amazing. I have seen a movie very similar to this, Stomp The Yard. Also a great teenage drama movie. But, for my opinion, Step Up is the better of the two.
