action

The dance group of dancers Sean and Eddie, the crew "The Mob", causes a sensation with their flash mob dance performances. Your goal is to get ten million clicks for your channel with the videos of the insoles on Youtube and thus to win the first prize. In the beach club that belongs to the hotel where Sean works, he meets Emily, who disappears without a trace after dancing with him.

The next morning he meets her again: He serves her and her father, the new owner of the hotel, at breakfast. Emily's father is not enthusiastic about her idea of ​​becoming a professional dancer with a large dance company, but he allows her to attend the auditions and she is accepted on a trial basis.

When she is invited by Sean to a flash mob in the art gallery in Miami and experiences their performance, she is enthusiastic and wants to join the crew. Eddie is initially not enthusiastic, but is outvoted by the others. At the following mob in a restaurant, she dances the female lead part and can also convince Eddie of her talent.

Meanwhile, Emily's father is de-renting the neighborhood in which Sean, Eddie and their crew live in order to tear it down and build lucrative hotels and shopping centers on the site. Emily, who cannot convince her father to find another place for his project, organizes a flash mob with the crew to fight for the neighborhood. The video for this mob caused a sensation and so the group almost made it to ten million clicks.

While Sean and Emily are rehearsing for Emily's final performance, a conversation between the two of them happens to be taped in which Emily talks about her father. Furious, Eddie organized a revenge mob without Sean's knowledge, which rioted Emily's father at a gala and exposed her as a member of the mob. Since the police have arrested Eddie and Sean, the group is excluded from Youtube and Sean leaves the group after another argument with Eddie. Emily, who doesn't believe Sean didn't know about the mob, feels betrayed. She performs the final performance alone, although she actually practiced together with Sean and the dance was intended for two people, and is rejected by the company.

After Sean and Eddie have made up again, they organize a flash mob with the help of Moose and Jenny Kido at the groundbreaking ceremony for Emily's father's major project. After seeing that Sean is ready to fight for his goals, she too is ready to perform her freestyle in front of her father. Only now does he see how much dancing means to his daughter and he decides to carefully modernize the district. An advertising specialist who actually works for Emily's father is so enthusiastic about the whole thing that he offers the crew an advertising contract with Nike.

Reviews

“In view of the rudimentary story, it's surprising that a screenwriter is listed in the credits. In any case, the artfully and energetically choreographed dance ecstasies in 3D, which will cast a spell over hip-hop hunts and party girls alike, are popular here anyway. Conclusion : dynamically staged dance battle without story ballast "
