"Battle of the Year" discuss just how the other globe has actually embraced b-boy society, yet how they're no more regarded as cutting side or cool in the United States.
That stresses the Sean Combs-like impresario, Dante (Laz Alonso): "How lengthy prior to hip-hop isn't cool down?".
He has to secure his music, style and dancing empire by putting American b-boys back on top. He works with an aged dance buddy, W.B. (for "Wonder Bread"), now a grieving, alcoholic ex-basketball coach (Josh Holloway of "Lost"). W.B. needs to get himself up to quicken on the current state of dance, after that recruit and coach a "desire group" of the very best of America's best to handle the remainder of the globe, which has actually passed America by and long controlled the yearly b-boy Olympics understood as "BOTY," the Battle of the Year.
That team includes assorted pretentious, chip-on-their-shoulder showoffs, because that's exactly what it takes to do well. Real superstar professional dancers such as Do Knock and Flipz are combined with others, featuring singer Chris Brown.
And aiding coach is Jewish hip-hop authority "Franklyn with a y," played by Josh Peck.
Benson Lee, supervisor of the definitive docudrama on the globally phenomenon, "Planet B-Boy," co-wrote and directed this, and immodestly has characters view that film and sing its praises. Holloway could not even hint at a real dance past, so the movie forges that by having his coach run his men through drills (in split-screen sequences).
Peck, once of TV's "Drake & Josh," one-time celebrity of "The Wackness," has a little, supporting job yet is given top invoicing. In this instance, that suggests his every scene consists of coiffed and extremely made-up close-ups. It's laughable.
Tabloid darling Brown even more compared to holds his very own with this crew, apparently not also needing a dance double. The dancing scenarios-- particularly those involving teams from Germany, France and Korea-- take the b-boy steps to the next degree.
And there are sufficient simple, undemanding laughs, the ideal lines coming from Peck's assistant coach.
"You resemble a gazelle around," he applauds his supervisor. "A gazelle with arthritis." Which, while it doesn't explain the film, does hit this category right in the bull's eye. However then, the appeal of "Step Up" and all its weary imitators is that the viewers they're shooting for has no concept that there have been 20 or 30 films specifically similar to this one that came before it.
He has to protect his dance, music and style empire by placing American b-boys back on best. He employs an aged dance colleague, W.B. (for "Wonder Bread"), now a grieving, sprituous ex-basketball coach (Josh Holloway of "Lost"). W.B. has to obtain himself up to quicken on the existing state of dancing, after that sponsor and coach a "desire group" of the ideal of America's ideal to take on the rest of the globe, which gettings passed America by and long dominated the yearly b-boy Olympics known as "BOTY," the Battle of the Year.
