Amazon.com: Step Up happily joins the long line of movies intoxicated by sexy bodies in motion. When an overachieving dancer (Jenna Dewan, Take the Lead) at an East Coast art school loses her partner just before a big showcase, her only possible replacement is a young tough (Channing Tatum, She's the Man) doing community service as a janitor. From there, Step Up slams together a folio of cliches, from prissy-rich-girl-gets-loosened-up-by-poor-boy to hoodlum-learns-the-error-of-his-ways-through-personal-tragedy to artist-discovers-his-voice. It's set in one of those performing arts schools where the students burst into spontaneous synchronized dance at parties. But Step Up, directed by choreographer Anne Fletcher, has a relaxed kinetic momentum and enough texture to give the nonsense just a hint of realistic grit. More than anything, Step Up shows off hunky Channing Tatum. With his sleepy eyes, broad jaw, and sloping neck, Tatum looks like an Easter Island statue come to life. His acting range may be limited, but Tatum has a definite lazy charisma; even when dancing full tilt, he looks like he just woke up and is still dreaming of the night before. Step Up also features Rachel Griffiths (Six Feet Under) as the requisite tough-but-loving-authority-figure. --Bret Fetzer
Step up:) I loved Step up when I saw it in the theaters I also loved it on dvd:) the music is great and the dancing is amazing:).
Step Up Movie Review This was a really great movie. I had watched it at the theater before. It was nice to have a copy of my own. The product arrived in great shape and I have viewed it about three times already too.
The dancing and story for the film are really phenomenal. If you enjoy a feel good tale of young city kids- this is for you. Entertaining for anyone 13 and up.
step up! very sexy movie with lots of dancing!one sad part that will put a tear in your eye!
DVD Step up Great Dancing! Channing Tatum hot as ever, who would have thought he can dance? Cute little dance movie. Quite entertaining
I was bored stiff Very boring, very predictable, every cliche under the sun. The lame plot might have been bearable if there had been more dancing but there was hardly any. I hated the little brother and was very happy that he got plugged. What the heck was the big brother thinking, giving him money and telling him to take the bus? What an idiot! Everyone in this movie was an idiot. Nora's Senior Showcase seemed to showcase everyone but her. And wasn't Tyler a senior too? I'm pretty sure you can't transfer into an art high school in the second half of your senior year -- you just don't have the background necessary to graduate. All the boys at that school were wimpy little things, weren't they? Could any of them hold up a partner in a pas de deux? Also, I couldn't tell how much time went by after Tyler quit and then asked to be taken back, but it had to be weeks. So Nora was willing to switch her Senior Showcase dance at the last minute back to one that hadn't been practiced for ages -- seems like quite a risk. Channing Tatum sure is nice to look at; that's about the only nice thing in this entire movie.
