Streetdance 2 3D 2012: Movie Review

An ex-top dancer is humiliated, takes up an insurmountable challenge against a crew that is almost always undefeatable, goes looking for dancers, finds them, faces superficial obstacles, overcomes them, wins final battle.

Streetdance 2 is no different. Ash (Falk Hentschel) is insulted in public by dance crew Invincible. Determined to prove his mettle, Ash along with unusually corny manager Eddie (George Sampson) jet sets to all of Europe to find just what it would help to take down Invincible. We’re never told what Ash does for a living or the background of dancers or why the competition so important to win. Dance freaks may argue that it’s not necessary as long as the dance is spellbinding. Except that it’s not.

The cast is a talented bunch of B Boys, hip hoppers, and those things without bones you see on Dance India Dance and numerous other reality shows. The film serves no apparent purpose, with scenes stitched together because somebody had nothing better to do on a Sunday afternoon. Even the music which plays a big role in dance flicks is dry and uninspiring. It’s funny how the guy bringing together people is always the weakest dancer of them all and always falls in love with a woman who’s passionate about a different style of dance, Tango in this case.

There nothing new to brag about in Streetdance 2.

There’s no reason you should pay and watch this bland and boring dance showcase.
