Stomp the Yard

Stomp the Yard is a 2007 drama film directed by Sylvain White.

Los Angeles krump dancer DJ Williams (Columbus Short) is sent to (fictional) Truth University in Georgia, where he gets involved in a stepping rivalry between the Theta Nu Theta and Mu Gamma Xi fraternities.

To win the affection of fellow student April Palmer (Meagan Good), DJ joins the Theta Nu Theta and overcomes his troubled past to defeat the Gammas in a final dance-off.

Despite moderate box office success, Stomp the Yard was received poorly by critics, who disliked the movie's cliched and formulaic storyline. Though the choreography was praised, the frat-on-frat rivalry was considered too "predictable" and "shallow."

Stomp the Yard has a 27% rating (out of a possible 100%) on Rotten Tomatoes.
