I know what you’re thinking…You Got Served isn’t
an action flick. Well, I didn’t think so either, until I watched
it! OMG, it is full of one-on-one fights, car chases, and
explosions. I know you don’t believe me. You’re thinking, “What
version of You Got Served did she watch? That stuff wasn’t in what
I saw.” Well, you’re right. No, it’s not full of all those
aforementioned things. It’s full of nothing like that. What it is
full of, however, is sappy dialogue, bad acting, dancing, and
people getting served. All combined to make one awesomely bad
movie. The dancing is friggin’ sweet though. I love to watch
people do things that I will never in a million years be able to
do. That’s why I watch the Olympics. Or Iron Chef.
You Got Served is quite entertaining, kinda like a nude gramma,
you’re ashamed if someone sees you looking at it, yet your
curiosity about something so horrific gets the better of you and
you just can’t look away. I know, I’ve been there, I watched You
Got Served. Aside from the acting and predictable textbook plot,
the dance moves are excellent and amusing. There are some moves
that are downright amazing. Props to the dancers, cause they serve
the audience some tasty dance moves (See what I did there?) There
are at least 5 dance sequences between two crews in this movie, so
it keeps you entertained and willing to sit through the plot just
to get to the next dance off.
Amount of time until dance action:
0 mins
Best dance move: In the opening
dance sequence, a random dancer slides across the floor…on his
head!
Best “You Got Served” sequence:
They saved the best for last. The end dance sequence was the best.
Two large groups battling for 50 thousand dollars. There are moves
that I have never seen before and have a hard time believing are
humanly possible. They do jumping jacks on their hands, slow
motion moves floor whirligigs, and all sorts of spins on their
heads.
People getting served: Everyone
gets their share of being served; however, “Wade’s crew” from
Orange County is the ultimate crew being served.
Best line: After the last dance
sequence, David (Omarion), gets in Wade’s face and says to him
what he said to David’s crew earlier in the movie:
“Ya’ll just mad because today, you suckas got served.” The crowd
goes on to chant “served” over and over again. Classic.
Best kill: The one and only
kill of the movie, the youngest member of the crew, Lil Saint,
dies is a gang related crime. No real loss, cause that kid was the
Scrappy Doo of this movie.
Action Rating: 3 dudes sliding
across the floor on their heads, out of 5
