He left the low-wattage likes of Guzman to carry the franchise forward, by playing a young man who’s discovered the hard way that the flash-mob shenanigans he and his crew conducted in Revolution have failed to impress the Hollywood establishment.
As a lead character, he’s a whole lot less charming.Īs for original Step Up star Channing Tatum, he got the hell out long ago and never looked back.

Guzman plays hot-blooded dancer Sean Asa, opposite Briana Evigan’s Andie West, a hot-blooded dancer who has not graced this series with her joyless presence since 2008’s Step Up 2: The Streets.įan favorite Adam Sevani returns as Robert “Moose” Alexander, a young man who over the course of his four films in the series ( Step Up 2: The Streets, Step Up 3-D, Step Up Revolution, and this one) has made a remarkably boring evolution from gawky geek to sexy, tanned Angeleno. It’s hard to tell one passionate street dancer willing to risk it all for a dream from another when these films occupy a universe where most people are passionate street dancers willing to risk it all for a dream, and the rest are evil land developers, sinister reality-show schemers, and various other one-dimensional bad guys who exist solely to bedevil the generic protagonists.įor those Step-heads keeping score, Step Up All In brings back Enrique Iglesias lookalike Ryan Guzman, star of the series’ fourth film, Step Up Revolution, whose incendiary, politically charged flash-mob sequences had audiences famously rioting in theaters.
