This series has actually been fairly successful with each new release. In total, the budget for all five movies was just shy of 100 million.
The total earnings in the box office for the series was 650 million, a fairly large profit margin. Critical review of this series has been relatively negative, the highest rating of the five is a 46% on Rotten Tomatoes. However, these movies aren’t exactly made for their epic plots, it’s mainly to show off cool dance moves and warm your heart. I wouldn’t read too much into what the critics think about this one. Movie Order Trailers Because of the continued success of this franchise, I would be surprised if we’ve seen the end to this series. While there’s no official word, I would paint a target date of 2016 for another release. I come at this date because the current release schedule for the previous five films has been every two years, like clockwork.
With a reasonably high profit margin on the previous movies, there’s no reason why there should not be another release in the upcoming years. The Step Up movie series is both a heartwarming story, as well as an entertaining dance flick.
