Step Up 2 Sizzles

"Step Up 2: The Streets" is a movie for dancers and non-dancers alike that will leave you wanting more. With rhythmic moves and sultry attitude, this film makes you want to get up on your feet and dance.

Continuing from the 2006 smash hit "Step Up," this sequel follows young Andie (Briana Evigan), little foster sister of Tyler Gages of the first film, as she tries to find her balance between school and the streets.

As a member of "410," a gang of dancers that hold the title for best dance crew in the underground battle called "The Streets" five years and running, Andie must be loyal to her crew and their trouble.

Andie's guardian and late mother's friend, Sarah, disagrees and plans to send Andie to Texas to live with her aunt.

A short appearance from Tyler (Channing Tatum) provides Andie with the second chance she needs to stay and audition at the prestigious Maryland School for the Arts.

Andie's style of dance leaves her outcast at the school, leading her to make friends with the school heartthrob Chase, played by Robert Hoffman, who shares her love of freestyle dance.
