Stomp the Yard

Just saw it today. Pretty much what I expected going in. The story isn't anything new but the execution was decent. The final dance sequence was impressive but others were kinda odd. Maybe I just don't understand the style but most of Columbus Short's dance sequence looks like he's having a seizure rather than actually dancing. Maybe it's just the lack of fancy acrobatic that gets to me. Not really a fan of the constantly shaky camera either.

Weird thing I noticed is that a lot of shots were out of focus. Not DOF out of focus, but the entire frame were. I guess it's a stylistic choice (hopefully) but it still seems odd.
 
I just saw the movie as well. I thought it was great! However I didn't and go and watch it for it's advanced plot lines it was all about the dancing.
