Review Step Up All in Movie – Entering its fifth installment, the Step Up franchise, which started its journey eight years ago, is trying to be present in a more enthusiastic atmosphere than before. The method? Not only through dance battles that prepared (and hopefully) epic, but also through grand reunions.
Trish Sie takes the position of Scoot Speer
Yes, Trish Sie took over from Scott Speer as director, inviting old faces from the franchise from the first generation to Step Up: Revolution to reminisce with the big fans. Not everyone was able to attend, of course, such as Channing Tatum, Jenna Dewan, Rick Malambri, Kathryn McCormick and Robert Hoffman, who were unfortunately absent (damn!). But don’t worry, even though the impression created may not be as bright as it should be, Step Up: All In still provides the expected festive atmosphere. Yes, as before, this volume also equipped with a series of neat dance battles, although for once it not strong enough to lift the film to a commendable level and erase the emptiness that surrounds it.

Review Step Up All in Movie: Focuses on Sean and His Dance Troupe
Continuing where the previous series left off, Step Up: All In focuses on Sean (Ryan Guzman) and his dance group, The Mob, who try their luck at making a career in Los Angeles after having the opportunity to star in a commercial for Nike. It’s just that, even if a well-known product listed in your work history, it doesn’t necessarily guarantee that The Mob’s path to achieving their dreams in Hollywood will run smoothly without anyone. Adrift for months after failing at various auditions, the group’s fighting spirit is slowly but surely fading. The climax was when a warning letter for arrears in payment for the apartment sent.
The Mob Returns to Miami
The Mob decides to return home to Miami, leaving Sean, who still has ambitions to achieve greatness. In the midst of his downturn, Sean searches for a number of dance auditions in cyberspace which leads him to a solution in the form of ‘The Vortex’, a dance competition with a prize of a three-year performance contract in Las Vegas. Not having a dance group, Sean asked for help from Moose (Adam Sevani), who then contacted his old colleagues from the previous volume, including Andie (Briana Evigan), to form a new group called LMNTRIX and fight together to conquer the competition.
Review Step Up All in Movie: All in Retreat Regularly
As thin as paper is the right analogy to describe the weight of speech in Step Up: All In. John Swetnam was reluctant to go to the trouble of creating a new plot and simply copied and pasted the narrative structure created by his seniors. It’s not a new problem, actually, because the story line from Step Up to Step Up: Revolution has barely undergone any significant changes and tends to run in place. It’s still generic and easy to guess.
This is often normal because the main focus of films lies in the packaging of dance movements and (more recently) the use of 3D. However, when the franchise has reached a saturation point, then repeating the back-to-basics story clearly not the best solution that can given, especially as Revolution has more or less dared to step out of its comfort zone, getting rid of all the clichés related to competitions and dance clubs. Rather than bringing the franchise – which was starting to show development in Step Up 3D – to move forward to a higher level, All In actually went backwards regularly.
Safe Dance Choreography
The music department, which usually acts as a helping god, for once, is facing a similar problem. Easy listening song content is difficult to find here so there are no ‘Club Can’t Handle Me’, ‘Goin’ In’ or ‘Low’ moments which are magically able to bewitch the audience to shake their bodies – or at least stomp their feet – happily. . What a shame. But fortunately, the dance choreography which the main ammunition of the film not dragged into the same sad black hole.
Money and Time Are Not Wasted
The ‘Wow factor’ somewhat reduced on the dance sequence side, but it’s hard to deny that the peak scene that takes place on the ‘The Vortex’ stage – the concept like a mix between The Voice and So You Think You Can Dance – presented quite stunningly, magnificently, lively and beautiful. . Providing solace above the dryness of the script and the main character, Sean, who tends to be annoying rather than charismatic. At least, the money and time to attend this person’s reunion event was not wasted.
