Best movie of this year hands down!
From my favorite movies..
A different way of telling a story
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
View More**WARNING FOR ALL WHO LITERALLY DON'T CARE (CUZ NO ONE WILL) THIS CONTAINS SPOILERS**Back in the year of 2008, there was a DCOM coming out called "Camp Rock." At first, it sounded like one of the best ideas the Disney company had ever had. It featured a new up and coming star, Demi Lovato, who is now a major name in pop music, as well as the popular Jonas Brothers, two of which are still successful to this day. It looked to feature a lot of music, some comedy, and drama, all made for tweens in the 2000s. It all seemed like a great idea, a musical dream for kids to enjoy all across the globe. Yeah, that didn't happen. *Record scratch* This is the worst movie I have ever seen in my life. As a 7-year-old girl who loved the Jonas Brothers, I was excited beyond belief for this movie. And I freaking loved it. I rewatched this "film" a couple of days ago after years of having not seen it and literally laughed my way through the entire thing it was so awful. The movie has three MAJOR issues that are consistent through all of the film. One problem is that just about every single person in the movie is a god awful actor. Like, they cannot act for sh*t. At all. I understand this is a kids movie and usually people don't act as well as in a movie made for adults, but wow are there "performances" immeasurably horrendous. Demi Lovato had barely any acting experience to my knowledge, and Jesus H Christ is it obvious. The Jonas Brothers are actually worse than her. Kevin Jonas plays a complete imbecile in this who has a bird house obsession, because I can guarantee you the writers sat down and said, "you know what kids like these days? Random things! LOL XD RANDOM! What's a random thing the third wheel of the Jonas Brothers can be obsessed with? BIRD HOUSES! PERFECT!" The three of them are undeniably the worst part of this movie. My favorite quote from Joe Jonas or "Shane Gray" is "I'm not wasting my entire summer at some CAMP!" I laughed so hard I almost puked. Whine, whine, whine. That's all Joe Jonas does in this movie. As mentioned, Kevin is stupid and Nick attempts to be the wiser, more humble of the three, but he's just bland and obnoxious. Hmm, maybe it wasn't a good idea to cast three people who are "musicians" and have had zero acting experience in a DCOM. Money grab? You bet your f*cking ass it was. The second problem this film has is the script. Here's a good example of what the script is like. Have you ever seen the movie "The Last Airbender?" If not, it's an atrocious adaptation of an animated kids show that featured unrealistic, ridiculous dialogue and nonsensical plot lines. Camp Rock has an M. Night Shamalamadingdong scent to it that makes me want to vomit and take a dump in my neighbors backyard. Or side yard. Every scene is cheesy, awkwardly written, and full of cringe worthy dialogue that never deserved to ever see the light of day. There are sometimes very quick moments that happen that don't further the characters and are lazily written. For instance, there's a scene where Allison Stoner's character, who plays a camper, tells Mitchie, Demi Lovato's character, and I quote, "check me out!" She then hits some random keys on a laptop which produces an awful array of beeping sounds, to which Mitchie replies, "COOL!" What the literal f*ck? The moments like this in the script are what killed a good part of what this movie could have been. But enough of that, onto the third major issue. THE SONGS. They are horrible as well as the awkward, horribly choreographed dancing.. F*cking terrible. I was unfortunately obsessed with "This is Me" by Demi Lovato as a kid and definitely regret liking it. The lyrics, although reflective and somewhat meaningful, are stupid and simplistic at times. They treat the kids that are listening like complete idiots in regards of the incredibly simple lyrics and are annoyingly catchy, so you'll probably have them worming their way into your head on repeat for about ten years after viewing this pile of filth and Disney decay. I counted, and there are literally no songs in this movie that are worthy of any recognition. Wow are they horrid. THIS SUCKS. DO NOT SEE IT. JUST NO. I could see it being okay for younger kids. Maybe ages 1- 10, but please do not subject yourself to such terror and torture if you're above that age. The movie must have done at least well enough with its audience, because a sequel was released two years later called "Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam" which was literally only 1% better than its predecessor. Just no.
View MoreI watched this movie today at the beginning it was OK but i actually felt that it was too long because the music is not as good as Disney channel other movies like teen beach movies but there are some pretty good song especially the duet between Mitchie and Shane it was the best song in the movie i didn't like the choreography so much but at least the message of the movie was good camp rock is about a girl who want to spend her summer vacation at a musical camp called camp rock i liked that Shane wants to discover who is the mystery girl who is singing because that reminds me of Eric from the little mermaid when Ariel sings to him and he want to be with this mystery girl with the great voice so i liked that from the movie over all it's not so bad but not as good as other Dcoms.
View MoreI didn't exactly have the highest of expectations, which probably made the film slightly more bearable. The problem was that 15 minutes in I thought to myself that this could be alright. It seemed intelligent and fun at the same time, something that is difficult to get in a kids movie. How disappointed was I then, when it descended into clichéd nonsense, especially with the "I was just trying to fit in and be popular but at the end of the day I've found out who I really am" rubbish? It was just far too unoriginal, but if you're going to copy other plots from other films then you at least do a good job of it, this film really doesn't. The lead it to Miley Cyrus-esq, but just not as talented (as least that's the impression I got) and the girl opposite her playing the bad girl was too watered-down "Mean Girls". Young girls of about 7-12 might be interested, but otherwise stay clear. The whole thing is so High School Musical wanna-be, and just isn't
View MoreOK, so this movie is playing on the U.K Disney Channel at the moment so I decided to write a review of what I thought of the film. When this film first came out, it was September 2008 over in the U.K. It had been advertised for a long time and it suddenly got to the point were I couldn't stand it!! So boringly predictable. All I kept thinking was that the makers of this film were trying to make another High School Musical. The film is bland and the music isn't all that good either! This film is classed as a "Disney Channel Original Movie." What's original? It's High School Musical dressed up as something a bit "different." There is obviously the "bitch" of the piece = Meighan Jette Martin, the "heroine" = Demi Lovato, the "heartthrob" = Joe Jonas and the obvious dumb characters who side with the "bitch" .. Anna Maria Perez De Tagle. Now .. the points ..1)characters; bland, un-original, cheesy dialogue, acting is atrocious. Some of the actors looked as if they could act, but were limited. 2)story; The story is High School Musical dressed up. All the same kind of characters. Really not satisfying.3)music; The music is .. just terrible. This is the reason why I ditched by pod for 2 weeks because after hearing these songs, I couldn't face listening to any music for a while! The singing is okay and you can obviously tell that the singing was edited in a studio to make these "stars" look as if they can sing. I don't really like the Jonas Brothers or most of the Disney starts in general, I love Miley Cyrus but Demi Lovato, she was just a girl who "wanted" her own Disney show/movie and got her wish. When will Disney stop manufacturing these "tween" actors who just bring shame to the real stars of the Disney Channel.
