Overrated and overhyped

not as good as all the hype

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

To it's credit, the dancing in this film is amazing, but it doesn't make up for how bad it really is. The plot is predictable, the acting is sloppy, the writing is beyond lousy and the editing is all over the place. This film focused more on choreography rather than trying to create a decent film. The only people who "Got Served" are the ones who had to watch this.

You Got Served is the epitome of watching someone scrape there nails on a chalkboard for 90 or minutes or so, that's how bad this felt. I expected the horrible acting, the typical "in the hood" talk, but I at least expected to be somewhat enthralled with some of the dance sequences, I got none of it. The characters are grating as well, I had trouble relating to any of them to be honest, while I had to listen to a pretty annoying soundtrack.Bottom line. I got served alright, served with horrible acting, terrible screenplay, and an awful movie. Avoid, only recommend to die-hard dance fans, and even that's pushing it.1/10

I'll keep this review brief. This was easily the worst movie of 2004. Critics of critics might say that if you don't like this movie you cant dance and to that I respond: ain't no call like a booty call cause' a booty call don't call yo booty. That doesn't make sense right? Of course not and neither does your rebuttal to those that hate this movie so shut up! And now......the review.The whole thing is about two kids whose dance crew is challenged by some preppy wanna-be-black suburbanites who steal the crew's moves thanks to a treacherous friend named Sonny. Omarion and Marques's character fall out over Omarion dating Marques's sister and things get more problematic from then on. The acting is atrocious and the dance moves might be cool at first but get pretty mundane after a while. Omarion as well as Marques Houston cant act. Lil Kim looks like recovering heroine junkie and the attractive Jennifer Freeman(My Wife and Kids) is whiter than Jenny McCarthy. You can tell this was a vanity project for the suspiciously effeminate Chris Stokes. And it still bombed! If you're into a movie all about dancing then go right ahead but if you're looking for something more than a dull dance film with heavily edited dance scenes look elsewhere. You just got served suckaz!

What's wrong with you people? This is one the best movies out there. So what if the plot isn't exactly the most realistic? It's as realistic as those of many other movies. Movies are meant for entertainment. This was more than entertainment for me... it was inspiration. The dancers in this movie are so talented. This movie combines comedy, drama, and dancing. How can you not love it? I've watched this about 4 times. I just want to watch it even more every time I watch it. I love this movie. It makes you want to dance no matter how bad you might be. There's so much energy in this movie. I usually feel lazy after watching movies. After watching this one, however, I was just so pumped up. Plus, Omarion is so cute!!
