Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
Am i the only one who thinks........Average?
As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Emily arrives in Miami with aspirations to become a professional dancer. She sparks with Sean, the leader of a dance crew whose neighborhood is threatened by Emily's father's development plans. Step Up: Revolution is the 4th installment of the Step Up Series and it's probably a sequel that simply just doesn't suck. It's not something that you haven't seen before such as the love story, the dancing and the betrayal between friends but the dancing this time is so impressive that you easily forget the fact that it's just not an original idea. The actors and the characters are pretty good and they do their job pretty well, the chemistry between the 2 leads is believable and the soundtrack was also pretty good. Overall Step Up 4 succeeds where other films of this particular not so interesting genre have failed with it's really good dance sequences and even the good acting from a pretty unknown cast. (A+)
You've got to admire, that they tried to take a step forward (maybe even two steps?). I wouldn't say it worked entirely, but it's nice to see them try to evolve from the usual thing they do (just to get back to it with the next one of course, but still). The dance routines are different and won't be everyones cup of tea. Especially because of the music involved (though the first one on the streets is really something to be watched and enjoy).And then there is a "message" in there too. The ending might be too smooth for my liking, but you knew this was coming. Can't comment on the 3D effects of the movie, because I watched it in 2D, but the routines looked good.
Step up 4:Revolution or "miami heat" as entitled On IMDb is the 4th installment in the step up series, one that should not have been a series in the first place, especially if the best you could do to tie in characters is bring them in towards the end (moose, keedo, madd chadd)through a character that probably shouldn't have been in this film (Jason played by Stephen "twitch" Boss")in the first place. The best way to describe this movie would be inconsistent and sloppy in every aspect of the film,whether it's the cinematography work done by Karsten "Crash" Gopinath,editing that was pieced together by Matthew Friedman and Avi Youabian, or just the terrible slurring and mumbling of lines by nearly every person in this film if you can call it that. It literally took me three hours to watch an hour and a half long movie because I kept pausing to complain about it. I would go as far as to say that this movie would've probably made me happier if it was never made seeing how it could easily be one of the worst movies i've seen since Blankman. I couldn't even rate the movie with the numbers I was given,and I would suggest that Adam Shankman and Jon m. Chu start taking lesser jobs for more time around reputable actors, directors, cinematographers, etc. If anyone enjoyed this movie I would love to know why for reasons other than the dancing.
I went to watch this film because I wanted to see some cool girls and dudes dance and just be f*cking cool. The storyline wasn't great, a bit cheesy, cool guy dancer from the poor bits of Miami meets cool girl dancer, daughter of rich businessman hoping to knock down cool guys home and district. Cheesy love, awkward moments and awkward story (but it's OK). Then BAM! They dance, and they know how to, they dance to dubstep, remixes and sh*t, I don't usually like those music genres, but in this context it was perfect. The 'flash mobs' were perfectly edited and stuck together with the rhythm and the beat. The one word to describe this movie is 'cool'. Two words would be 'f*cking cool'.
