Center Stage: On Pointe is the fourth in the series and is no different than so many of these contemporary dance movies (a la Step Up) with a pretty cast with so-so acting talent, though it is nice seeing Peter Gallagher reprise his role.

PLOT SYNOPSIS
|
| Jonathan Reeves (PETER GALLAGHER) is tasked with infusing more contemporary styles and modernism into the American Ballet Academy, and enlists his top choreographers Charlie (SASCHA RADETSKY), Cooper (ETHAN STIEFEL) and Tommy (KENNY WOODWARD) to recruit dancers to compete at a camp where the winners will be selected to join the Academy. Bella Parker (NICOLE MUÑOZ), who has always lived in the shadow of her hugely successful sister, Kate (RACHELE BROOKE SMITH), finally gets her chance to step into the limelight as one of the dancers recruited for the camp. |
SPECIAL FEATURES — 1.25/5 |
| Dance Tutorial with Chloe (10:37) finds the dancer/actress breaking down a dance routine. |
VIDEO — 4.0/5, AUDIO — 4.5/5
|
| Center Stage: On Pointe comes to DVD from Sony presented with an anamorphic widescreen aspect ratio; colors were bright and detail for standard-def was decent. The Dolby Digital 5.1 track is fairly robust especially during the dance sequences. |
OVERALL – 2.0/5 |
|
Overall, Center Stage: On Pointe is the fourth in the series and is no different than so many of these contemporary dance movies (a la Step Up) with a pretty cast with so-so acting talent, though it is nice seeing Peter Gallagher reprise his role. I suppose tweens might enjoy this entry, but others might as well skip it. The DVD released by Sony offers good video and audio transfers. |
