This sprightly, sardonic sequel to Bring It On has little connection to the Kirsten Dunst comedy, but is a lot of fun on its own terms. Freshman Whittier (Anne Judson-Yager) arrives at California State University in Los Angeles intent on auditioning for the cheerleading squad. Discovering student life to be a mix of the mundane (dumb football players) and iconoclastic (sundry militants), she buddies up with a former rival (Faune Chambers), for comfort, and gets an easygoing boyfriend (Richard Lee Jackson). But after impressing the shrewish head cheerleader, Tina (Bree Turner), with her astonishing agility, Whittier is lured to campus celebrity and briefly loses her head--and friends. After wising up, Tina dismisses Whittier from the squad, forcing the outcast to start a rival (and much sexier) cheerleading crew. Broad performances, particularly Turner's monstrous child of privilege, make Bring It On Again worth a visit. --Tom Keogh

Ideal For A Really Sadistic Re-Gifter.......2006-12-10

It's hard to believe that any movie industry professionals were actually associated with straight-to-video production "Bring It On Again" (2004). Although a sequel, it is more like a really painful blend of "Revenge of the Nerds" and "Cadet Kelly".

Despite the warnings I actually watched my soon to be re-gifted DVD. Anne Judson-Yager (who looks like Reese Witherspoon plus 30 pounds) plays new college freshman and aspiring cheerleader Whittier Smith. She and her friend Monica (Faune A. Chambers) pass the audition and come under the scrutiny of sadistic head cheerleader Tina Hammersmith (Bree Turner). They soon tire of life under Tina and form a rival cheerleading squad of fine arts students and campus radicals. Despite a host of available movie stereotypes the screenwriter can't seem to figure out how to portray this crowd and you actually feel embarrassed for the actors who must deal with these portions of her script. Production design, style, and unity are apparently unknown elements to director Damon Santostefano (unsuccessfully seeking work since making this movie) and the whole thing seems randomly thrown together. It must have been an assembly nightmare for the editor, who may or may not share some of the blame-it's hard to tell.

I'm at somewhat of a loss as to the target demographic for "Bring It On Again". These things tend to be pitched to producers for their sexploitation potential. And in this case they could at least count on a pre-sold sexploitation audience of original "Bring It On" fans. But the only tie with the original is the subject of cheerleading and those looking for sexploitation elements will be disappointed.

My guess is that the target audience is actually preteen girls. The script is certainly on that age and sophistication level. The male members of the cast appear to have been selected for their looks (certainly not their acting skills) while the female members are a dreary looking bunch (although their limited acting skills are well-matched with those of the male cast). When your leading lady looks like Judson-Yager and your only really pretty actress is cast as the cheer squad's towel girl; alarm bells should start sounding for those outside this target demographic. I bet the producers wish that they had heard those bells and monitored this project a little closer.

Then again, what do I know? I'm only a child.

Better than the first and third!.......2006-08-28

Bring it on again rocks!!! People bag it. It is totally the best bring it on film out of the lot. It is better than the new one. And better than the first.

Bad not horrible.......2006-08-12

Yeah, it's pretty bad. The first and third are waaay better. The second one has lame jokes, is boring, and did I mention it had lame jokes? Not funny, not entertaining. If you really have nothing better to do, then pop this in your DVD player.

Bring it on is soooo much better then the so called 'sequel!'.......2006-07-15

I think that Bring it on Again is a really bad movie, not to mention the boringness in it. The reason I have given it a 2 out of 5 stars is bcuz it was plain boring. I mean who would wanna watch a movie like this? Firstly actors werent hot like the the people in the first movie. There wasnt any one there that made the movie any better or any more fun to watch. The rest of it was pretty boring! Secondly, the movie was way boring coz the stars were practically anonomous! And they still are! Thirdly the movie just wasnt as fun as the first one. I mean the cheers in this movie isnt even that good. And u wouldnt repeat the cheers after the movie unlike the first movie, after an hour u would still think of the cheers and say it to urself. Maybe even copy them and use it for ur own team!And there werent any 'higher stakes, hotter grooves or any more attitude! ' It doesnt even have hotter grooves or moves and the person who created the cover must be crazy becuz there is NOT any more attitude! So over all this movie is not worth watching bcuz its really boring and its just doesnt have as much groove as the first movie. I have to say, no offence to the whole cast or anything.. but this is the worst sequel to a great movie ive ever watched!

How Did it Go Wrong?.......2005-11-28

The movie so many enjoyed, Bring It On was great, but I wouldn't recommend watching this one. The theme, cheerleading, was the same but everything else was worse. The movie started out with cheerleading captain, Tina, being someone everyone idolized, yet Tina was mean to the point of open violence, not even artificial all the time, and yet in power. Severe plot flaw? The script was honestly terrible, with terrible character development, a plot that didn't hang together, and a disappointing ending.
When you see Tina, you automatically form a dislike of her that increases throughout the movie. She openly bullies others, and loses her temper, as well as makes vengeful glares after finishing cheers which are spotlighted on TV. Yet nobody seems to notice. You see an easy, plain routine the night before the playoff and an elaborate, advanced one the day of it. How could that happen while the team was asleep? The ending occurs just after the climax, which makes the entire movie seem like a 30 minute clip. What happened to the resolution? Oh, it went into the mean, snobby and proud Tina begging to be part of the team she openly hated, the one a girl who couldn't stand her anymore created. That was maybe the last minute, and after all that action, it went directly into the credits.
This was an overall disappointing movie that leaves you feeling empty and longing for the much more satisfying "Bring it on" without the 'again.'
