This is one of the best sequels ever, where it not only is as good as the original but almost tops it. Briana Evigan is, by far, the coolest of all of the Step Up girls and Robert Hoffman is awesome. Plus, Adam Sevani makes everything better. Andie (Evigan) is part of a dance crew that gets in trouble a lot. She's lived with her mom's friend since her mother died and the woman has had enough. Andie's friend Tyler Gage (cameo by Step Up star Channing Tatum) talks the woman into giving Andie one more chance to change by going to Maryland School of the Arts, the school that changed him. After Andie gets accepted, with a little help from the director's little brother Chase (Hoffman), she sees that going to this school will not be anything like she thought it would. But with her new friend Moose (Sevani) and help from Chase, she puts together a dance crew to compete with her old crew. Where will they battle? The Streets, of course. The Streets is a battle of the best dance crews, where they bring their best moves. But will Andie's new crew of misfits be able to bring it? Or will they end up burning out, just like Andie will if her second chance doesn't work? Not only does this movie have amazing dancing all the way through, but the dance at the end is one of the best dances I've ever seen (in the rain?! Heck yes.). Oh, and make sure to keep an eye out for Christopher Scott, choreographer on So You Think You Can Dance. He plays Hair.
