Step Up 3D - The Return of Boring

|
While the trailers are bursting views into millions,
everyone must have been anticipating this groundbreaking movie of the year.
But little do you people know,
how DISAPPOINTING this movie is! Yes I've said it right.Downright disappointing!

Sure, when Step Up appeared, it became a major blockbuster.Back then, it deserved the popularity because the idea was seemingly fresh at that time (aside from other dance movies like Honey, You Got Served etc). Step Up is considered one of its kind.

The success of Step Up had lead to its sequel; Step Up 2: The Streets. This sequel is still doing fine even though the typical love story element was reused.

However, the third installation of Step Up is incredibly...boring.Effects,yes they are there but did not do the choreography any justice,at all. Storyline is flat and maybe occasionally a few little surprises (which were expected!!!!). The female lead cannot act and certainly cannot dance that well.Male lead looked painfully sad.

There are many elements in the movie that don't make sense at all.
For example; the Pirates gang can afford a gigantic collection of 'cun' shoes but cannot afford to pay for their house mortgage or something.
Another spoiler; The Chinese crew at Chinatown had so much difficulty to dance when the water pipe broke,acting like water is some sort of bad omen or something.Also,showing some chinese apeks [uncles] betting on American hiphop battles, did not help in enforcing the image of Chinatown.In fact, it made things worse.
Wait till you reach the final battle,you'll cry for your loss of 20 bucks including the cun popcorn combo.

Verdict is pretty simple; annoyingly typical plot that lacks the 'oomph' factor and also amazingly fake visual effects.

There you go! *takes deep breath*


Oh sorry I forgot to warn you guys about the spoilers.NGEEKKK too late for that! Now I have successfully convinced you not to watch it.HAHAAAA
