STOMP THE YARD HOMECOMING MOVIE
Should a sequel to this movie ever come out, I'll definitely read some reviews before deciding to watch it.Chance Harris looks to find a balance between his school, work, relationships and opportunity to perform at the nationally televised step competition during homecoming weekend at Truth University. Keith David (Chance's uncle) is a fine actor, but this script did not give him sufficient latitude to flex his acting muscle like I've seen in other films. Other than the two cameos by DJ, this movie has nothing worthwhile to offer, and it can't end soon enough. I could tell you how it ends, but suffice it to say that the ending is just as shallow and blah as most of the film. (By the way, I half-way expected to see a wedding ring on DJ's finger, as an allusion to his relationship with his girlfriend April (Meagan Good) from the first movie. Sorry, sports fans, you don't get to see DJ dance in this film - he's just there as an alumnus for moral support. DJ gives another short speech before the final competition - likewise gratifying to watch. His performance is a much-needed breath of fresh air for this film, which has been drowning for a while. In the midst of this situation, DJ Williams (Columbus Short) has a cameo appearance, in which he talks for maybe a minute or two. Chance Harris is stoked about appearing in a nationally televised dancing competition during homecoming weekend at Truth University. Information page about Stomp the Yard: Homecoming (starring Keith David, Jasmine Guy, Kiely Williams and more) on American Netflix :: from MaFts. This is a big detriment to movie, having an unlikeable main character.ĭue to some unscrupulous characters from the opening scene that have put Chance in a compromising situation, Chance is faced with a dilemma about whether or not he should dance in the final competition. The film is released in direct-to-video on September 21, 2010. 1 It is the sequel to 2007's Stomp the Yard. All of his problems are brought upon himself due to his own self-focus. Stomp the Yard: Homecoming is a 2010 drama film directed by Rob Hardy. Unlike the original movie, in which DJ played a highly talented, considerate, and likable person who had integrity and showed he could learn from his selfish behavior from the past, Chance is neither talented nor likable. Some family tension with his uncle, played by Keith David (the ONLY recognizable actor in the movie, other than Columbus Short), accounts for another ho-hum and unoriginal sub-plot.Ī few words on Chance as the main character should be offered. This sub-plot doesn't add anything to the movie, due to the shallow depth of the character development and the unoriginal and typical course of events. A love triangle is portrayed between his current love interest (girlfriend?) and an old flame (who manages to throw herself at Chance while keeping it a secret from her current boyfriend). Watch Stomp the Yard 2: Homecoming in streaming on CHILI. Next, we're introduced to Chance's environment at work and school. at the nationally televised step competition during homecoming weekend at Truth University.
He has one trick move (a flip of some kind), and the rest of his repertoire is nothing impressive - not even by local dance club standards! Already, we're off to a bad start. One dancer is clearly superior to anyone else there - but guess what - he's not the main character! (In fact, I don't recall seeing him again after that scene.) We see the movie's main character, Chance, played by Collins Pennie, do his best stuff. So onto the sequel: it starts out promising enough, with a "battle" in the street. (How Columbus Short's character, DJ Williams, could have been tagged with the murder of Chris Brown's character is a MAJOR hole in the movie, but that's another story.)
STOMP THE YARD HOMECOMING PROFESSIONAL
The cinematography - as far as dance movies of this type goes - was professional looking as well. We both enjoyed Columbus Short, Chris Brown, Meagan Good, and the rest of the great cast, along with the nicely choreographed and impressively skilled stepping. On the merits of the original Stomp the Yard movie alone I decided to watch this movie with my wife. Reviewed by raptor0089 1 / 10 Stomp any thoughts of watching this movie
