"Battle of the Year" discuss exactly how the rest of the world gettings accepted b-boy culture, yet just how they're no much longer perceived as reducing edge or cool in the United States.
That frets the Sean Combs-like impresario, Dante (Laz Alonso): "How long prior to hip-hop isn't cool down?".
He needs to safeguard his dance, fashion and songs empire by placing American b-boys back on leading. He employs an aged dance buddy, W.B. (for "Wonder Bread"), now a grieving, sprituous ex-basketball coach (Josh Holloway of "Lost"). W.B. needs to obtain himself up to speed on the present state of dance, then sponsor and coach a "desire team" of the finest of America's finest to take on the other world, which gettings passed America by and long dominated the annual b-boy Olympics called "BOTY," the Battle of the Year.
That team contains diverse big-headed, chip-on-their-shoulder showoffs, because that's what it takes to succeed. Real star professional dancers such as Do Knock and Flipz are blended 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 definite docudrama on the worldwide phenomenon, "Planet B-Boy," co-wrote and directed this, and immodestly has characters watch that movie and sing its praises. Holloway can not also prompt at a genuine dancing past, so the film fabricates that by having his coach operate his guys via drills (in split-screen sequences).
Peck, as soon as of T.V's "Drake & Josh," onetime superstar of "The Wackness," has a little, supporting duty yet is provided top invoicing. In this case, that suggests his every scene consists of coiffed and very fabricated close-ups. It's laughable.
Yet tabloid favorite Brown greater than holds his very own with this crew, evidently not also needing a dance double. The dancing scenes-- particularly those entailing groups from Germany, France and Korea-- take the b-boy transfer to the following level.
And there are a lot of simple, undemanding laughs, the very best lines coming from Peck's assistant coach.
"You look like a gazelle available," he applauds his supervisor. "A gazelle with arthritis." Which, while it does not explain the film, does strike this category right in the bull's eye. However then, the beauty of "Step Up" and all its tired imitators is that the audience they're capturing for has no concept that there have actually been 20 or 30 motion pictures specifically similar to this one that came before it.
He has to shield his songs, dance and fashion empire by putting American b-boys back on leading. He employs an old dancing colleague, 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 dance, then recruit and coach a "dream team" of the ideal of America's best to take on the rest of the globe, which has actually passed America by and long dominated the annual b-boy Olympics known as "BOTY," the Battle of the Year.
