Truly Dreadful Film

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

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.

No idea why this movie is rated so low...the dance battles are great and its a classic street dance movie that paved the way for much bigger movies like Step Up. If you are in your mid 20's and have no rhythm and listen to country music, this movie isn't for you. Just search up You Got Served dance battles on YouTube and you will see its mostly positive reviews by young adults/teens who know this movie is fun.

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!

A complete waste of film. They should collect every copies of this horrible piece of garbage and burn them so that this terrible, soul-sucking piece of crap cannot infect future generations. Anything with Kevin Federline in it should realistically be burned anyway. But this incredible sh!t-fest pushed the envelope even when it comes to Mr. Britney Spears. All of the people who had anything to do with producing this movie should feel terrible shame. They should all return any money that they received or give it to charity. I could go on. I could give you my take on the plot, the characters, etc. but thinking about the movie actually makes my head hurt. The kind of hurt where you'd like to pull your eyeballs out and spray novacaine directly onto your cerebelum. If you liked this movie, you should seek psychological help.

I must disagree with many of the other users' comments. I admit the storyline does lack a certain originality to it..however this film is based around urban dancing...and considering that...IT DELIVERS. I know many of my friends who are into this style of dancing and this film has been an inspiration to them. The acting is mediocre - nothing that special...the chirography is pure bliss and you really get into the mood of the movie! Something which also has to be mentioned is the music, excellent choices made taking the best from hip-hop. I do however, believe that this film is probably not for the older generation...more suited for younger urban young adults who have an interest in hip-hop etc. Don't knock it before you've seen it...well worth the hour or so...
