Summary of Stomp the Yard (Widescreen Edition)
DJ (Columbus Short) an amazing underground street dancer hasn't been in college for a day before he's entranced by the lovely April (Meagan Good).Working as a gardener to pay the bills DJ doesn't fit in with the wealthier students around campus but one thing does catch his attention the rival fraternity competitions known as stepping. With April's help DJ learns about the legacy and heritage behind the fraternities and decides to join up. Now part of an official step group DJ must balance rehearsals work and school while at the same time winning the heart of the girl of his dreams. With the National Step Championship drawing closer DJ must learn to stop dancing as an individual and start stepping as a team.Run Time: 116 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre:?DRAMA Rating:?PG - 13 UPC:?043396160422 Manufacturer No:?16042At its core, Stomp the Yard is a romantic drama disguised as a dance film. Or is it the other way around? DJ (Columbus Short) is a troubled teen from Los Angeles who gets a chance for a better life when he is admitted into Atlanta's privileged Truth University. Just when he thought he had escaped a life of gangs, DJ finds himself in the middle of a "war" between two upper-crust fraternities where stepping (a popular dance form) is their weapon of choice. When DJ realizes the coed he falls for is the girlfriend of the school's champion stepper, he joins the rival fraternity to try to show her--and himself--that he's as good as anyone else there. Stomp the Yard is not an original film. Add some drums and you've got Drumline. Change some of the characters around and you've got Save the Last Dance. What sets the movie apart is the stepping. The precision involved at this level is impressively complicated and Short--a dancer and choreographer--is beautifully expressive both as an actor and a dancer. Sure the plot is predictable and hokey at times. But Short and Meagan Good (as his crush April) have wonderful chemistry together, and the supporting cast--including Harry J. Lennix as DJ's no-nonsense uncle--are delightful to watch. --Jae-Ha Kim
