At 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 realises the girl he falls for is the girlfriend of the school's champion stepper, he joins the rival fraternity to try show her--and himself--that he's as good as anyone else there. Stomp the Yard is not the most 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

Although the pretty much the whole film is predictable the dancing is out of this world. colunbus short is very impressive as an actor and this film proves he is not just a name in dancing. a very good role for meagan good as this is her first role as the female lead. good soundtrack and an enjoyable film
Great film October 24, 2008 Pippa (Weymouth) I didn't know what to expect by this film, i watched the opening scene previously to buying the film, and didn't understand what was going on so stopped, but after watching it a second time i love this film, i even prefer this to step up. This combines a very hip hop style dancing with college life and all its fraternities and sororities. This film is based on two rival frats involved in hip hop dancing and ultimately ends in a dance off in national championships with amazing moves. I definitely recommend this film to anyone who likes dance films, worth a watch. A real feel good movie
It's about the moves and music December 8, 2007 Alexandra (Netherlands) Dance movies should have their own category. It's about the moves and the music, not the storyline. We all know the storyline to each dance movie; leading role has troublesome past/present, leading role meets pretty boy/girl, leading role has epiphany. We don't care, we want to see some steps and hear some good beats. This movie is full of win on that account.
brilliant December 26, 2007 Laura542 (London, UK) this film is great and a must have for all hip hop lovers (whether its the music, dancing or both), the ending is a bit predictable but apart from that a great film!
