When life throws you curveballs, lemons, or closed doors, there's just one solution: Dance! Step Up 2 The Streets is a worthy entry into the inspirational dance-it-out film lexicon, with moves, choreography, and music that sometimes seem to defy even gravity. The spunky young heroine is Andie, played with sass and amazing dance talent by Briana Evigan (daughter of hardworking TV actor Greg Evigan). Andie's from one of Baltimore's grittiest neighborhoods, but her dance ability--forged in fire on the streets of Baltimore--lands her in a prestigious performing arts school, where she struggles to fit in even as her schoolmates are awed by her talent. With a nod to Love Story, our working-class heroine catches the eye of a privileged boy, Chase (Robert Hoffman), who's captivated by Andie's dance chops and genuine heart. Andie's fierce sense of self helps ground the film. At one point she lectures Chase, "Look, the streets is about where you're from. It's not some school talent show. There's no spring floors. There's no spotlights!" But the true star of the film is its amazing dance sequences, and the talented cast works the moves for all they're worth. The supercharged soundtrack features Plies (with Akon) and a couple of excellent Missy Elliott tracks. Ready? Hit it! --A.T. Hurley
Product Description
When rebellious street dancer Andie lands at the elite Maryland School of the Arts, she finds herself fighting to fit in while also trying to hold onto her old life. When she joins forces with the schools hottest dancer, Chase, to form a crew of classmate outcasts to compete in Baltimore s underground dance battle The Streets, she ultimately finds a way to live her dream while building a bridge between her two separate worlds.

 pre-ordered brand new Step Up 2 The Streets August 17, 2008
Found Step Up 2 through this seller. Put it on pre-order and a few days after the DVD's nationwide release it was at my house. Good service. No damage and in great condition out of the package. I am satisfied with this purchase and would purchase through this seller again.
Step Up 2 August 9, 2008
Good movie...Surpassed the first one. Couple of scenes that you could tell were cut in the middle. The end was amazing.
 Stepped up the dance scenes but not much else... August 6, 2008
I loved Step Up and eagerly awaited number 2... However, what you see of Tyler Gage (Channing Tatum) in the trailer is all that you will see of him in the movie! The plot rates a zero but the dancing is off the hook - don't miss the finale in the rain! If you liked Honey and Stomp the Yard be sure to see The Streets. If those movies weren't your style then I wouldn't recommend this flick.
I HEART STEP UP 2 August 2, 2008
I have to say I LOVED the first Step Up its been on high rotation since it came out, I would have watched it at least 100 times!!!! So when I heard there was a sequal coming out I was fearful it wouldn't hold up to the first but I must say I shouldn't have worried I think I LOVE it even more! Channing's still in it, (his co-star from She's the Man) Robert's the new leading man and theres more dancing then the original. What else could you ask for?
The is THE dance movie! August 1, 2008
Step Up 1 had PHENOMENAL dancing. Just PHENOMENAL. The sexy actors were just a bonus. But this is at another level. This is THE dancing movie! The dancing outshines every aspect of this movie that you don't even remember what the story was about. I loved that there was dancing everywhere. That's what a dance movie should be, shouldn't it? Rather than making the antsy viewer wait 'til the finale to enjoy some real dancing.
To comment on the acting and directing - in all honesty, it was not too shabby at all. Obviously, they weren't going for the oscars but then the movie IS about kids from the streets who have passion for dancing. The movie generally stays true to the spirit of that - and the credit goes to the actors and the director. I was especially impressed with Rob Hoffman and Cassie. Rob Hoffman, known for his edgy pranks, was very believable in his role. Cassie, singer turned actor, also surprised me with her portrayal of Sophie - I thought she would bomb like many other singer turned actor.
Back to my point - step up and watch this movie. The dancing is just SICK!
