This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
everything you have heard about this movie is true.
It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.
One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
First of all, I am a big fan of the first You Got Served. Making this movie was the biggest mistake made in this kind of genre. The plot was lousy, the lines were somewhat picked up from a 60's TV show, acting was disgusting although the announcer of the crews did a nice job! About the choreography, I have seen better moves and routines from the show "Britain's got talent" but not to be unfair, there were, here and there, a few awesome moves but generally it was boring to watch. My two-star-rating goes to the beautiful women in the movie as I should have given it a 0. To all of you how have seen the movie and expected better from it...You Got Served!
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.
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 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!
