As far as films about dancing go, Step Up 2: The Streets is pretty good. It’s one of the rare films where the sequel is actually far better than the first one (in this case, Step Up).
It’s a feel good film where a disadvantaged teenager goes against the odds to get the outcome needed to stay in her home town and escape going to Texas. It’s predictable is parts and a few similarities to other films of the same type are noticeable but over all it’s an easy and pleasant watch.
The talent in the film is quite amazing as the dancers are obviously professionals and the routines they do are extraordinary.
I would recommend this film to anyone who likes a bit of romance, dancing and drama all mixed in together. And, for those who have seen the prequel, don’t think it will be the same because, a part from the title, they are nothing alike.
