STEP UP 2: THE STREETS
Mood: Sleepy Music: "With You" by Chris Brown
It was pretty spontaneous of me to watch the movie. I was in front of my pc doing some paper work about 7ish and suddenly Joey drop me a msg in MSN asking whether have I seen the movie.
I was like…"There is actually a Step Up 2? A sequel?" And he was like YEA. Was wondering how come I did not see any trailers or posters around. Joey himself saw the trailer on Youtube.com. So I went to GSC.com and check da movie out and it seems it is already out. There were two shows left, one at 10pm and the other at 12.10qm.
Both Joey and me are suckers for dance movies cause we love dancing our butts off. Well, he is into breakdance of course while I’m more into stylish mainstream moves. So I decided to get da 12.10am movie which happens after cell group.
Da show wasn’t as good as I expected it to be. While Step Up 1 was more specialized in Ballet & hardcore hip hop, the sequel was a mixture of everything. From breakdance, to electric boogey to hip hop and jazz to ballet and krump to popping and steppin to latin salsa…it was like rojak lar.
Basically in the streets, you bring whatever flava you have on the floor as long as it is new and fresh but watching it on screen, da choreographies were nice but there wasn’t anything new lar. In the sequel, there were more storyline than dancin. Da main actress is hot though while Cassie who played the jealous girlfriend was pretty much a dissapointment since she played such a minor role with so little dance opportunity.
I’m giving da show 6/10 but if you need a spark of inspiration or just wanna relax and enjoy the saucy music, it is still ok to watch lar.
