Step Up Ratings & Reviews
Boxoffice Magazine
Tim Cogshell
It's all strung together by scenes wherein, for no reason at all, everyone dances -- every kind of dance, from break to ballet -- brilliantly, with youth, vigor and passion. And it's great, even when it's silly, which is often.
Village Voice
Bill Gallo
Fletcher ably blends ballet and hip-hop, but the filming itself is often clumsy, and Tatum's relentless African American impersonation quickly wears out its welcome.
USA Today
Scott Bowles
For a movie about dancing, Step Up is pretty clumsy on its feet.
Seattle Times
Judy Chia Hui Hsu
Step Up may sizzle on the dance floor, but when the dancing stops, the film fizzles.
San Francisco Chronicle
Ruthe Stein
A lot of movies are derivative. What makes Step Up particularly dispiriting is that it has almost nothing fresh to add.
Newsday
John Anderson
Being an urban dance movie, guns make their appearance, along with every stereotype about hip-hop or the young. Don't believe the hype. Just watch them dance.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
Step Up is so predictable, with every scene loudly announcing what the next one is going to show, that teens in the audience will take lots of breaks to text each other on their phones.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
Step Up barely bothers to build a memorable story. Instead, the movie rests entirely on the well-sculpted shoulders of charismatic leads Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan.
Detroit News
Tom Long
Aside from the dance steps, you've seen it all before.
Detroit Free Press
John Monaghan
Dirty Dancing by way of 8 Mile might be the best way to describe Step Up, a likable, predictable musical drama.
Denver Post
Lisa Kennedy
It's the storytelling that keeps landing on its keister.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
Any guy who sits through this date movie deserves to get to third base at least.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Step Up is about following the teen-dance movie recipe without variations, right up to the big finale. By then, Wake Up would have been a better title.
Arizona Republic
Annemarie Moody
The cast of mostly unknown actors, who can all really move and sing, are given a story that doesn't make sense and lines that are boring at best and nonsensical at worst.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
Alive with infectious rhythm, likable characters, and slick dance moves, Step Up gives clichs a good name.
Zap2it.com
Daniel Fienberg
The stars blend decently when they're flailing their limbs, but faced with the horribly earnest dialogue written by Duane Adler and Melissa Rosenberg, neither stands out
Variety
Joe Leydon
The well-cast leads are more than appealing enough to encourage a rooting interest. Better still, they obviously do their own dancing, and do it very well.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
As Nigel Lithgoe or Mary Murphy might say, it just wasn't good enough, and at this stage of the game audiences, and I, sure as heck deserved better.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
A rough Baltimore kid, armed only with a killer smile and hip-hop moves, falls for a classically trained dancer in another retread of Footloose.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
a hip-hop version of High School Musical, some juvenile delinquency and a drive-by shooting added in to provide some street cred, but still a Disney-fied world where kisses are important and happy endings are guaranteed.
