This flick is just an excuse to display some dance routines. As a movie it is weak. There are several reasons for this: 

The acting is bland. It reminds me of The Twilight Saga's Kristen Stewart. They mostly display neutral facial expressions. It's often difficult to know what emotions the characters have. Are they sad, p!$$ed off or a combination of both? Among the actors worthy of a nomination: 

Worst Actor: Ryan Guzman
Worst Actress: Kathryn McCormick
Worst Supporting Actress: Mia Michaels 

With so many expressionless actors the entire cast deserves a nomination for Worst Screen Ensemble. 

The movie itself should get nominated for Worst Picture and Worst Prequel, Remake, Ripoff or Sequel.

Word-of-mouth on this one was fast (and also furious!): From opening Friday to opening Sunday, grosses dropped over 40%  (MoJo LINK) making STEP UP #4 likely to be the lowest-grossing film of the series...

R.T. (around 25%): "It treads familiar territory by surrounding its lively and kinetic dance sequences with a predictably generic story". Considering how it's bad even by the franchise standars (remember how passable the 3rd one was), I'd say this has a better chance of being nominated for a Razzie.]]> Thu, 26 Jul 2012 19:03:48 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5917&PID=51735#51735 STEP UP #4 a.k.a.

It's weird to see Roger Ebert bothering to review this film, since he never reviewed any of the previous Step Up movies.]]> Thu, 26 Jul 2012 11:30:22 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5917&PID=51724#51724 STEP UP #4 a.k.a.

As a fan of Step Up's 2 and 3, I was looking forward to Revolution. As it turns out, the series is starting to show its staleness. I hope this is the last Step Up film, because the filmmakers can only milk this series for so long. This 4th film is entertaining, for what it's worth, but it isn't as exciting to watch as the previous two films. The dancing sequences are great, as expected, and the 3D is put to good use (like it was in Step Up 3). However, it lacks the charm the 2nd and 3rd films had, mostly due to the lack of Moose. 

Overall, if you like the Step Up films, there's no reason you won't enjoy this one. In fact, the whole 1% vs. the bottom 99% plot element is interesting to see. My rating: 6/10 

Note: There is one dance sequence that I'm sure will disturb people, due to the recent movie theater shooting in Colorado. It involves smoke grenades and people covered in gas masks and armor.

Does Jenna Dewan really count as a star? If she's brought up at all, she's usually mentioned as Channing Tatum's wife and nothing else. The only movies I've heard of that she's been in are the original Step Up, Tamara (a really bad horror movie), The Grudge 2 (a really bad horror sequel), and American Virgin. I've only heard of that last because of this: http://www.agonybooth.com/video449_American_Virgin_2009_Movie_Rob_Schneider.aspx]]> Wed, 18 Jul 2012 18:25:41 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5917&PID=51653#51653 STEP UP #4 a.k.a.

@MWG: Those things may be true, but the saga still lacks whatever it is that the FOOTLOOSE remake had, because that one was very well-received.

oiram, I think the reason he's the mascot is because Channing Tatum's an actual star now.
Tatum and his wife Jenna Dewan are the only actors who have become stars in the whole franchise!
