Premiere of “Step Up”

by Leora Israel Zellman on August 8th, 2006

A lot more stars than I thought would showed up for the premiere of the movie "Step up". The movie’s about a bad boy learning to dance and falling in love, yadda yadda. Here’s what IMDB says about the movie:

Everyone deserves a chance to follow their dreams, but some people only get one shot. Tyler Gage (CHANNING TATUM) is a rebel from the wrong side of Baltimore¹s tracks and the only thing that stands between him and an unfulfilled life are his dreams of one day making it out of there. Nora (JENNA DEWAN) is a privileged ballet dancer attending Baltimore¹s ultra-elite Maryland School of the Arts — and the only thing standing in the way of her obviously brilliant future is finding a great dance partner for her senior showcase. When trouble with the law lands Tyler with a community service gig at Maryland School of the Arts, he arrives as an angry outsider, until his skills as a gifted street dancer draw Nora¹s attention. Now, as sparks fly between them, both on and off stage, Tyler realizes he has just one performance to prove that he can step up to a life far larger than he ever imagined.

I’m not sure if i’ll spend the $10 to see it in theatres because it sounds too similar to other dancing movies I’ve seen but I’ll definitely rent this one when it comes out on DVD because I love Channing!
