A fan of modern music and enjoyed watching the original Step Up:
Acting and story are borderline and pretty predictable. But the lead actress, Jenna Dewan does a superb dance number and good enough acting -- a combination that does not exist easily. The finale is excellent and worth a watch by itself. She is married in real life to the male lead, Channing Tatum.
This led to a ton of sequels which have gone downhill to the point where they are just random hip hop dance routines. And even there they are not the best there is sometimes.
