In a limited role, Ne-Yo does what is asked of him, but I'm not sold on him as an actor. Her character, April, is a character that has a lot of depth and is very interesting to watch as she changes throughout the film. Meagan Good gives another great show, with another good character. Short gives a good performance and provides a likable character for us to see. Columbus Short not only proves he can dance in the film, but he can act as well. In a small, yet important role, Chris Brown will amaze you even more with his incredible ability at just 17 years of age. The choreography is simply brilliant, blowing all other dancing movies of recent memory Step Up, Take the Lead, You Got Served out of the water. It's a good drama that puts the stepping in as entertainment. Even without the musical aspect of the film, Stomp the Yard would be a decent film. You may be wondering how the dancing and stepping fits in with the plot, but that is the interesting thing. DJ soon meets a friend in his roommate Rich singer Ne-Yo and the beautiful daughter of the school's president Meagan Good of Waist Deep. His uncle allows him to start college and start a job, giving him the chance to start over. For it's genre, however, it's as good as there is. It's pretty much what you think it is from the trailers, but it's a very well made version.I'd give the film a strong 7/10. Also, it's new in subject matter, which makes it different from it's peer films.If you're on the fence about seeing this film. Still, I thought that the messages in, the performances in, and the overall execution of this film was better than any in this recent group of college age/friendship genre films.I enjoy films of all types, and I can honestly say that this is a solid film for this genre. These are the people who might want to see this film and learn of something new.I, for one, am not big fan of "Greek" organizations.
It's also obvious that they know nothing of the subject of this film, stepping. I just feel sorry for the kinds of people who would make spreading hatred a part of their lives.You can see by some of the comments made by some of the IMDb commentators, so to speak, that they never saw this film. How pathetic is that? I'm glad that this film was a financial success, despite the "haters". It's a shame that so many people who have obviously never seen this film used their time and energy to rate this film a 1.
