If you are watching this because you like the plot and acting of the first one then skip it. This time you need to be watching it for the dancing and nothing else. If you want a great plot and some amazing acting don't bother.I actually enjoyed this movie because I wasn't expecting much. All I wanted to see was dancing and it was pretty good. I've been dancing since I was 2 and appreciate any form. You will see Twitch in the movie as a main character (He's not half bad) but will admire his movement. Twitch is from 'So You Think You Can Dance' and so much more…just an FYI.Overall if you appreciate dancing watch this film. Besides the acting you will be entertained. It's like watching the preceding Step Ups and expecting anything else but good dancing.

Like most who purchased this movie or watched it...it was due to me being a huge fan of the first Stomp The Yard. To say I was let down is somewhat of an understatement. First of all the second movie starts off the same as the first...dance competition followed by needless violence. That's where the similarities end. First of all…Collins Pennie (Chance in the movie) is not as talented of a dancer as Columbus Short (DJ in the first movie). That much is evident from the opening dance scene. My opinion of him is pretty much justified throughout the entire movie.Then there is the time-line problem. Stomp The Yard was released in 2007 and Stomp The Yard 2 was released in 2010. Columbus Short's character DJ should still be enrolled in Truth as a returning Senior. If he graduated early which is possible, it's hard to believe that the Thetas have endured another losing streak to the Mu Gammas which is clearly the case, as direction of this movie would have you believe. This could have easily been fixed had the film makers offered up more money for Columbus to actually star in this movie instead of making brief cameos. Imagine this…Chance comes to Truth needing direction and DJ mentors him having experienced similar issues during his initial semester at college. Also imagine DJ instructing Chance that he has to be open to improving himself…in life as well as Stepping. Imagine then, the dance finale of seeing Chance and DJ stepping on the same stage. Imagine DJ turning Theta Nu Theta over to Chance as he prepares for graduation. Also it would have been nice to see Megan Good make a cameo as DJ's fiancée. Now a plot including these bits and pieces would have made for a much better movie. That's just my opinion though. Before I forget…did I mention that both fraternities had better steppers in 2007 than 2010, laugh out loud.

Well all i can say is that this movie is OK to watch but after watching to the end then you would realise that it was a bit weak....the plot was OK...the acting was OK...a bit exaggerated at certain parts. It was very very predictable though....but trust me it is way better than the back up plan...with J'lo......(i would say that movie was the worst for 2010) Stomp the yard 2 in my opinion was done in a rush. I mean i think the makers of this movie weren't too keen on out doing the 1st one but just wanted to do a dance movie in a hurry and reap of unsuspecting movie goers like you and i. So I am sure their plan was that by the time you would realise that the movie sucked ass, you would have already paid to be in the cinema hall. It is worth watching on your laptop, after all if you got it for free from a pal who downloaded it then its worth watching. At least it is a great a opportunity to use it to kill 1.20hrs of time if don't have anything to do or if u don't have anywhere to go. Other wise i recommend Scott Pilgrim vs the worldi give it 3 stars

OK... First hearing about the sequel I was pretty much excited being that I enjoyed the first one especially the cast. But boy was I let down. The dancing and the stepping was horrible; it feels like they didn't even try to surpass the moves they did in the first film; if anything it fell way too short. The cast on the other hand; mixed reviews on that one (some could act and some couldn't). The storyline was pretty much generic and boring. The movie is 1hr and 27mins but at some points felt longer due to its slow pace and not being as entertaining. However I gave the movie 5/10 because although it didn't meet my expectations I would not say its the worse movie every made besides I added an extra star because the scenes Columbus Short was in put a smile on my face (THETA WHAT?).*Don't be discouraged by my review; its all subjective. You just may like it; it just did not exceed my expectations.
