Are you a fan of dance entertainment? Are a fan of So You Think You Can Dance (SYTYCD)? Are you in love with Kathryn McCormick of SYTYCD? Well, if you do, you ain’t going to get a better treat than this. Step Up Revolution got my heart racing inside the theater. I so wanted to step up and move my body. I have drooled watching Kathryn on screen. Cynthia too. So I guess that was fair play.
Now, before you rush out and buy a ticket to watch this orgasmic dance movie, there is something you must know. Story-wise, there is nothing to cheer about. Still, the plot seems to be better than what I have expected. A bit cheesy? Yes. A bit over the top? Certainly. But the feel good factor is there.
Also, key acting scenes are pretty awkward to watch. I suppose great dancers aren’t necessarily great actors. One scene, I can tell that it was baked from many takes so much so that it was rather disturbing to watch. That, or the film editor has done a not too good enough job.
These are the only two criticisms I have on Step Up Revolution. For those who are new to SYTYCD, contestants are expected to dance a variety of genres. Also, due to the show’s voting system, contestants are naturally likable, supremely entertaining. They tease the audience with all sorts of appeals they have. Some of the dancers in this movie come from SYTYCD. Hence, you can imagine how sizzling hot this movie is.
The story of Step Up Revolution is based on the flash mob concept. What these passionate dancers can do is truly amazing. Each dance scene is unique, choreographed with a special theme in mind. What Kathryn can do on screen reminds me of how gifted she and the rest of the SYTYCD contestants are. One may say that if you have seen one Step Up, you have seen it all. True. However, I don’t mind getting entertained over and over again.
