“I would write about the plot here, but seeing how there isnu0026#39;t really one, I find that pointless. This movie is basically about one thing: Awesome dancing. If you walked into this movie expecting anything else, then you walked out severely disappointed. I, thankfully, expected this movie to be a strenuous two-hour music video, and, it having gone above and beyond my expectations, walked out completely satisfied (in fact, I saw it twice). u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eStep Up 2 presented some of the most amazing street dancing sequences that have ever appeared on film. The final dance literally had me leaning forward in my seat, as if I were watching a high-intensity fight or chase scene. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAnd come on. Iu0026#39;ve heard a lot of complaints about the acting. I thought the acting was not too bad, especially since they initially had to find really good dancers…that happened to act. Comparably speaking, I wouldnu0026#39;t say it was any worse than, say,the acting in Jumper, which was fairly horrendous at times *cough*Jamie Bell and Hayden Christenson. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBasic summary:u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eHighlights: The video that the new crew makes for the streets. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe characters Moose and that hilarious Asian chick. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eLatino dance scene u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAnd, of course, the final dance scene.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI gave this movie a 6 out of 10 because this is a film quality grade, and, as a film, it wasnu0026#39;t spectacular. However, Step Up 2 accomplished just what it intended to do: create an awesome excuse to show off amazing dance moves for almost two hours. In fact, it passed with flying colors.”
