Review of Battle of the Year (2013) by Pebblecamp — 17 Nov 2013

The movie was totally boring from the outset. After the electrifying and seat grabbing screen wonders, Stomp the Yard, Step Up, and especially the latest “wow” Step Up Revolution, Battle of the Year fell flat in expectations. The Battle of the Year attempted to introduce themes that were over-used and worn about the edges by every upcoming wannabe movie writer.

It was boring and without imagination on the part of the writer. The actors, even Chris Brown who I suspect was mostly used for sale factor, were lacking in acting skills, and the ability to grab and hold the audience. If the intention is to take children to see a great dance movie, save the dough and get Step Up Revolution from Netflix or pay per view. This movie is not worth the ten dollars and the popcorn.
