Plot Summary: When DJ (Columbus Short), a troubled youth from Los Angeles, moves to Atlanta to attend Truth University, he discovers "stepping," the age-old style of dance traditionally done in African-American Fraternities, where teams demonstrate complex moves and create rhythmic sounds by using their bodies. DJ's raw talent and hip-hop inspired moves quickly place him at the center of a fierce rivalry between two fraternities, the winner of which will be determined in front of a sold-out arena at the annual stepping championships. But before he can help his teammates, he must battle his own demons and learn the true meaning of brotherhood.

A compelling drama about the quest for individuality and the power of fraternity, "Stomp the Yard" features some of the most original and exhilarating dance performances ever filmed.

I absolutely refuse to see this movie. I knew when the previews came out that it would be garbage. As a member of one of the fraternities who will be fictionalized" in the movie. I'm pretty livid at the portrayal. This movie basically makes it seem as if stepping is what we're all about. Nothing could be further from the truth.

schutd

I think your lyin.

schwalbhimself

no i really liked it, its not all about steppin either, u should prob go see it and it'll prove you wrong

boondockdrunk

People told me that too... but atleast they didn't seriously go see the movie!!!

schwalbhimself

hm maybe its because your an old man, so its not your taste, the movie is suited for a more hip hop crowd

Shane H

I enjoyed the movie. Those kids are talented and that was reason enough to watch it.
