The movie “Stomp the yard” was directed by Sylvain White. It centers on Dj Williams and his life as a stepper.

As the movies goes on some things happen with Dj and the Thetas and the Mu Gamma Xi goes to a step competition with the other teams.
I personally wouldn’t change anything about this movie. The way this movie was written had a good message to it; and I as a person wouldn’t be able to think of a better way to make this movie unless it had a whole different morel to the story.
I believe most people would love this movie if you enjoy dance movies. There are celebrities in this movie that he or she would find attractive. If you are interested into African- American movies, then it is worth watching. I would recommend this movie to teenagers and young adults because it has a really inspiring moral to the story. It’s really touching and makes you think about how things aren’t always about you all the time. It teaches you about brotherhood. How family will always be there for you.
