This review of the movie contains the following information:
After suffering a humiliating defeat by the current reigning InvinciblesStreet Dance crew Ash (Falk Hentschel) decides to quit dancing. He is approached by Eddie (George Sampson) to form a new crew and have another go at a challenge. Ash takes some persuading but eventually agrees to gather a crew together from the best street dancers in Europe. He feels that he needs to do something completely different to win the challenge and when he sees Eva (Sofia Boutella) performing a very sexy salsa dance, realises this is the idea (and the girl) that he’s been looking for. His vision is a fusion of Latin and Street Dance but his crew needs some persuading.
Children and adolescents may react adversely at different ages to themes of crime, suicide, drug and alcohol dependence, death, serious illness, family breakdown, death or separation from a parent, animal distress or cruelty to animals, children as victims, natural disasters and racism. Occasionally reviews may also signal themes that some parents may simply wish to know about.
Young women involved in provocative dancing
Research shows that children are at risk of learning that violence is an acceptable means of conflict resolution when violence is glamourised, performed by an attractive hero, successful, has few real life consequences, is set in a comic context and / or is mostly perpetrated by male characters with female victims, or by one race against another.
Repeated exposure to violent content can reinforce the message that violence is an acceptable means of conflict resolution. Repeated exposure also increases the risks that children will become desensitised to the use of violence in real life or develop an exaggerated view about the prevalence and likelihood of violence in their own world.

Streetdance 2 3D is a dance movie with some great Latin and Street Dance moves that dance fans will enjoy. The appeal is fairly limited however, as while there is an inevitable touch of romance, the storyline is limited. Parents of younger children may be concerned about them watching scenes of young women involved in provocative, sexy dancing.
The main message from this movie is that it is necessary to overcome fears and failure to succeed in your desires.
