Critics Consensus

Step Up Revolution treads familiar territory by surrounding its lively and kinetic dance sequences with a predictably generic story.

Despite the fact that there are four choreographers listed on the IMDB credits, even a few of the routines felt flat.

One can't help but feel that if the franchise hasn't jumped the shark it's certainly stepping over a finned killer fish with abandon. Damn. We've been served.

The Step Up dance franchise steps up for a fourth time, unashamedly and unselfconsciously sticking to a tried and trusted formula, here transplanted to Miami.

1.5/4.0

What should have been a stylish and fun film is instead an exercise all too similar to those godawful 80's dance flicks.

Dance is a great and expressive art form, so why can't it be displayed in a great and expressive film?

There just wasn't enough of the blockrocking beats and big phat high octane dance numbers to offset the megadownload of cheese.

It is becoming very mediocre at this point with the movies consistently having great dances, a love story between two head dancers, and a thin/weak plot and story. To be honest though, I still watch these for nostalgia

The acting is not good, but the dancing was pretty cool.

Nice twist on the series with the whole flash mob concept.

As with Step up 3D, the threadbare plot lines and stale characterization are nearly forgotten when the phenomenal choreography takes centre stage.
