Review: Step Up 3D(2010)
Posted On 10 Aug 2010 By Jonathan Sullivan. Under 2 Stars (Mediocre), 2010, 3 Stars (Fantastic), Comedy, Musical, Romance.
Step Up 3D is definitely the worst Step Up film in the franchise (yes, I've seen them all), but it's still cheesy fun and its gimmicky use of 3D is funny in a macabre way. However, if you're going to see this, do you really care about how good the movie is, or do you just wanna see people do crazy dance moves you could never even attempt? Be real with yourself.
