Balle of the Year

"Battle of the Year" touches on exactly how the remainder of the globe has actually embraced b-boy society, yet just how they're no longer viewed as reducing edge or cool in the Usa.

That worries the Sean Combs-like impresario, Dante (Laz Alonso): "How long prior to hip-hop isn't really cool down?".

He needs to secure his style, dancing and songs empire by placing American b-boys back on top. He works with an aged dance pal, W.B. (for "Wonder Bread", now a grieving, alcoholic ex-basketball coach (Josh Holloway of "Lost". W.B. has to obtain himself up to speed up on the current state of dancing, then sponsor and coach a "dream team" of the very best of America's best to take on the remainder of the world, which gettings passed America by and long dominated the yearly b-boy Olympics understood as "BOTY," the Battle of the Year.

That group contains various arrogant, chip-on-their-shoulder showoffs, since that's just what it takes to prosper. Real celebrity professional dancers such as Do Knock and Flipz are mixed with others, featuring vocalist Chris Brown.

And aiding coach is Jewish hip-hop authority "Franklyn with a y," played by Josh Peck.

Benson Lee, director of the conclusive documentary on the worldwide phenomenon, "Planet B-Boy," co-wrote and routed this, and immodestly has characters view that movie and vocalize its praises. Holloway could not also mean a real dancing past, so the film fakes that by having his coach operate his people via drills (in split-screen sequences).

Peck, when of T.V's "Drake & Josh," one-time star of "The Wackness," has a little, supporting task yet is provided top invoicing. In this situation, that implies his every situation consists of excessively fabricated and coiffed close-ups. It's laughable.

Tabloid favorite Brown more compared to holds his own with this crew, obviously not even needing a dancing double. The dance settings-- particularly those entailing teams from Germany, France and Korea-- take the b-boy transfer to the following degree.

And there are sufficient simple, undemanding laughs, the most effective lines coming from Peck's assistant coach.

"You appear like a gazelle around," he applauds his supervisor. "A gazelle with arthritis." Which, while it doesn't describe the film, does strike this category right in the bull's eye. However after that, the beauty of "Step Up" and all its worn out imitators is that the viewers they're shooting for has no idea that there getting been 20 or 30 flicks specifically similar to this one that came prior to it.


He has to secure his popular music, fashion trend and dance empire by putting American b-boys back on top. He hires an old dancing pal, W.B. (for "Wonder Bread", now a grieving, sprituous ex-basketball coach (Josh Holloway of "Lost". W.B. has to obtain himself up to speed on the existing state of dance, then sponsor and coach a "dream team" of the best of America's finest to take on the rest of the world, which has actually passed America by and long dominated the annual b-boy Olympics known as "BOTY," the Battle of the Year.
