It also, annoyingly, doesn’t get resolved.
You forget that there is an attempt of a love line until the film brings it up again. Secondly, the film tried to have some sort of romance amongst the characters, which added absolutely nothing to the story. Even if his introduction in the film was corny as hell, you kind of feel bad for the guy for the rest of the film. which, to be honest, I only really felt from the male lead Super Dino (who, I think I should point out, is primarily a dancer and not an actor). Was it trying to be more like a drama, or was it it going to focus more on the dance aspect? It was all over the place.įirst, with the Step Up franchise, you obviously have the emotions that come with the passion for dancing. Overall, I was confused on what the film wanted to be. Everything about this film was terribly bland (the only highlight was seeing Jade Chynoweth dance, and she was amazing). God, I wanted to like this so much because Meiqi (the lead actress) is one of my biases from WJSN, but I really couldn’t. And for information on 2021 movies or even 2022 movies, make sure to dance on by here often.More Questions Than Dancing Step Up: Year of the Dance is a 2019 Chinese dance film that follows two dance crews from different social classes, who then combine forces to defeat a prolific dance crew from the United States.
A LIST OF STEP UP MOVIES MOVIE
I mean, come on, people! Bring dance back to the theaters! I want my Step Up 666: Dance, Lucifer, Dance! It could happen!īut what do you think? Do you miss the Step Up series as much as I do? Better yet, what’s your favorite Step Up movie in the series (and yes, I know there was a TV series on YouTube Red)? Answer in the poll below. That’s how big Step Up got in the 2000s, and it’s a huge shame that we haven’t gotten a new movie since 2014.
Or, this is like Step Up, but with cheerleaders. So much so, that you could even say, oh, this is like Step Up but on a college campus. But I would say that Step Up pretty much set the reference point for all other dance movies. Just think, most dance movies were one and done, or got a straight-to-DVD sequel like Save the Last Dance 2, or Stomp the Yard: Homecoming. You Got Served, which was about street dancing, also predated the first Step Up as it came out in 2004.īut Step Up was like the perfect amalgamation of both those ideas, and it pretty much became the de facto dance series of that time period. That distinction would likely go to Center Stage, starring Zoe Saldana, which came out in 2000 and was about a ballet academy. Remember when I said that Save the Last Dance started off the dance party in the 2000s? I lied. They Were A Reference Point For Other Dance Movies At The Time We would both want to see each movie in the series. I believe I took my then-girlfriend, now-wife to every Step Up movie as they were always a good time. And afterwards, you could always talk about which performances you liked the best, as it played well to pretty much every demographic. The plots were simple enough that you could always sneak in a quick kiss and not miss much of the story, and the sexual tension was often through the roof, with dance being a nice PG-13 substitute for actual sex. That said, I would call all of the Step Up movies great date flicks. The later films would rectify this (I’m sorry, but I don’t go to these kinds of movies for the romance), but even so, there was still always a love interest in the middle of these stories, with some being more prominent than others. In fact, I would definitely call the first movie more of a romantic dance drama than a dance movie, as there was definitely more of an emphasis on the romance rather than the dance. At the heart of every Step Up movie is a love story.
