Good Follow-up to the First Film, but not Quite on the Same Level,
By Gerald Parker "Gerald Parker" (Rouyn-Noranda, QC., Dominion of Canada) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Center Stage: Turn it Up Bilingual (DVD)
"Centre Stage: Turn It up" is a worthy sequel to the first "Center [i.e., Centre] Stage" film (the earlier one subtitled "Life Doesn`t Hold Tryouts"), but not quite of the same level of interest either as drama or as dance. There is more dance of modern pop styles (rap, hip-hop) in this nice sequel than there is ballet, though both are present in the two films, the difference in that regard being one of balance. Ballet (and some glamourous Hollywood/Broadway show dancing, too) is more prominent in the original (i.e., in "Life Doesn`t Hold Tryouts"), with much more dancing of all styles in that film by the entrancing Ethan Stiefel, who, however, does enough dancing in "Turn It up", in classical and pop styles, to justify obtaining the second DVD as well as the first, which had been, however, more of a show-case for him.The storyline of "Turn It up" is not quite so engrossing as that of the interweaving plot constituents of "Life Doesn`t Hold Tryouts", but the later motion picture does hold the interest between the dance sequences, which are well integrated into the plot. Kenny Wormald, the the adorably boyish yet muscular principal male protagonist in "Turn It up", is a fine dancer in his own right; it is his acting that is not quite so up to the level of that of the delightfully insouciant and self-confidently genial Ethan Stiefel, who, fortunately, is in both movies (and in "Life Doesn`t Hold Tryouts" as the main male figure of that film). My recommendation is to buy both Centre Stage films, if one really has a passion for dance in all of its forms, as I do. If star calibre acting and dancing is the shopper's overridingly chief interest, then the first film is the more essential of the two to purchase for his personal collection.

You have to love dance movies.,
By Bizu - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Center Stage: Turn it Up Bilingual (DVD)
I really like this Movie but,I also watch every dance movie I can get my hands on, so basically I am bias. It's not my favorite, but I find it entertaining and the dancing is pretty good. I am glad I own it! Don't expect great acting and story. But if you love to watch dance movies, this is a movie for you! Hope this was helpful!

This Film Is a Charming Product to Have Supplied as a Sequel to the Earler "Centre Stage" Dance Film,
