Plot summary

After the death of his younger brother, a troubled 19-year-old street dancer from Los Angeles is able to bypass juvenile hall by enrolling in the historically black, Truth University in Atlanta, Georgia. But his efforts to get an education and woo the girl he likes are sidelined when he is courted by the top two campus fraternities, both of which want and need his fierce street-style dance moves to win the highly coveted national step show competition.

The Emperor's New Clothes

STOMP THE YARD is an old-fashioned college movie about someone who shows up for the wrong reasons and slowly comes to recognize that college offers more than a ticket to a life in a foreign realm: last month I looked at ANNAPOLIS SALUTE from 1937 with exactly the same story, and I don't doubt it was decrepit with age then.

But when you're dealing with an old story, the issue is not the age of the plot -- we can assume it's used because it works and the question becomes one of details. Here, we have the story tricked out with issues of belonging -- to a fraternity -- and dance competitions.

Now the choreography of the movie is excellent -- but the style of dance is about confrontation and aggression And that runs directly contrary to the theme of the movie and is a weakness.

I rush to note that the performances are good, even though some of the characters are written -- particularly the lead, DJ -- as a mass of immiscible contradictions. Unless you are a major fan of this sort of dancing, it's not for you. Stick with the Disney TV movie, JUMP IN! Which is the same movie, only about competitive double-dutch jump rope.

Undeserving of its rating.

I'm often baffled at the ratings that some of the movies end up with out here. This movie is far better than a 3+. Unfortunately, I didn't catch the very beginning, but what I did see was entertaining and well-acted, just what one would usually expect from a film of any sort. Sure, the story's been told, as most stories have, but they all have something a little unique to offer. The dance sequences weren't necessarily awe-inspiring, but they also weren't drawn out so long as to bore you. All in all, I enjoyed this picture. My perspective comes from that of a middle-aged white guy, so it might be quite different from yours.

Powerful beginning

The beginning does not feel like a teenage drama/movie about dancing at all. It feels really mature. What follows might seem like a bit of a downfall from that, but it really shouldn't be watched like that. Try to enjoy what is coming next. Especially because for a movie about dancing the story is decent enough.

And I should mention that Megan Good(e) is playing in this! If you don't know her, you missed out. While she only had a minor role in "Brick", she alone should be reason enough (for male viewers) to watch this. Right now (2013/14) she's doing a lot of TV if I'm not mistaken, which is almost a shame, but here she has bigger role, even if she has not that much to do (unfortunately! She should've been dancing too imho).
