Miranda (Evan Rachel Wood) has had a tough time raising herself on her own. But when her father (Michael Douglas) comes to stay with her after spending several years in a mental hospital, her life is thrown into disarray.
Charlie is obsessed with finding a 17th century Spanish treasure. Miranda is torn. She likes seeing Charlie excited and having a purpose, yet at the same time she knows he is often delusional and always thoughtlessly self-centred.
Yet, thanks in part to her dad’s magnetic eccentricity, his unflinching optimism that there is indeed buried treasure nearby and her own sheer boredom, Miranda agrees to aid Charlie in his quest.

This sequel is as entertaining as its predecessor. Youthful and spirited, the film’s energetic pace along with some fabulous choreography makes it thoroughly enjoyable.
The heroine of this story is Andie (Briana Evigan), an orphaned 16-year-old street dancer who lives in Baltimore with her deceased mother’s friend. Andie is a part of a street dancing gang called 401, a notorious crew that stages musical pranks in public places and competes in dance contests at clubs.
Not too happy with her lifestyle, Andie’s guardian wants to send her to live with her aunt in Texas. But Andie desperately wants to stay back. In order to do so, she enrols in a formal dance school where she meets Chase (Robert Hoffman), a dance legend who likes street dancing. Andie’s total commitment to her new school gets her kicked out of her old dance crew, but no problem. She forms a new crew with Chase to take part in street dance competitions.
