This movie completely surpassed my expectations.... as to how bad it would be. I was expecting the terrible acting. I was expecting a nearly non-existent story with more holes than a fine swiss cheese. Unfortunately I was also expecting some jaw-dropping dance moves, which is ultimately the only reason anyone would put themselves through a movie like this. However in this respect the movie totally failed. The dancing is almost completely uninspiring. I have recently been watching the TV show "Americas best dance crew", which is the only reason I watched Beat the World, but in comparison the dancing in the movie is just Lame, with a capital L. I feel violated.
If you thought you are going to be amazed by this movie that followed the first "You got served" -- you're going to be very disappointed. When the first movie appeared, even though it had bad reviews as storyline and / or acting, the dancing was sick, and it was revolutionary. Someone "got served", there were battles, but first of all there were DANCERS. After 7 years in which urban dance evolved incredibly, "Beat the world" comes with an even worse script, no dancing (except for some poppers and lockers), no routines, nothing !!! It just blows
As a professional dancer and choreographer, "You got served" was a key in what street-dancing should look like, and after 7 years the sequel just made my sleepy. Very disappointed.
Don't waste your time on it. Maybe the first "You got served" had a lame story line as well, but the dancing was hot and fresh. Everything about this second one is trash. Don't waste your time.
If I could have given zero stars I would have. I'm glad I used a free rental from Redbox to watch it because I would have wanted my money back. I expected a lot better. Some of the Actors or should I say dancers are really great in there personal video's, on YouTube, in other movies. I had high expectations. But what I got was half @$$ dancing. Bad dialog, and a plot that has been done way too many times. If you though some of the dancers were good or you felt like they were not allowed to show there full potential, then look up some of the names in a video search engine and watch how good they really are. Example Christian " Prince Mio" Loclair , Chase Armitage and his crew 3RUN, or maybe Kristy Flores. Skip the movie watch You Tube.
If you like great dancing, then this is a movie for you. Although other dance movies feature local dance competitions, in this movie dancers come from all over the world, not just locally - Berlin Germany, and Rio in Brazil. Some of the moves are incredible, it's hard to believe that the laws of physics are not being broken. The dancers are all amazing, but I think that Stephanie Nguyen really sticks out. Also I like Ray Johnson (Sho Tyme), great sense of humour and of course great sense of taste. It is also very interesting to see how the various crews train, nothing comes without lots of work and of course for the Fusion Crew, it helps that they have their own X-Man coach!
