Blu-ray Review: ‘Step Up Revolution’ Sleepwalks Through Recycled Steps
Submitted by mattmovieman on December 7, 2012 - 10:47amCHICAGO – The kids in “Step Up” are hardly the children of a revolution. They stand up for nothing of consequence besides the right to dance wherever they please, even if it means blocking several lanes of traffic.
