Great visuals, story delivers no surprises

Brilliant and touching

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

This show was a disgrace to Disney (much worse than Hannah Montana)The acting was awful, The Characters are annoying, The Theme song sucked (worse than The Phineas and ferb Theme song)CGI = Fail Sound Effects from cartoons = Fail Dramatic music = FailLondon was The worst and The most annoying suite Life Character ever (even worse than Candace from Phineas and Ferb)The only good point of this show was Mr Mosbey He was The funniest Character everBoring, stupid, Not Funny, Annoying and AwfulIf you want to see a good show Watch power Rangers instead and take suit Life off The air

I've watched many Disney comedy shows such as Wizards of Waverly Place, Suite Life on Deck, Phineas and Ferb and so on, yet no show ever catches the same feeling as watching Suite Life of Zack and Cody. This show is totally amazing in every aspect. The actors/actresses are amazing, from their facial expressions to the last tiny detail.This show is about two mischievous twins named Zack and Cody Martin, who live with their single mother at the Tipton Hotel, where they are known as trouble makers. Their mother, Carey, is a lounge singer. The show also features on the poor, candy girl named Maddie and the rich, London Tipton. Another one of the main characters is the manager of the hotel, Mr. Marian Moseby, who is played by Phil Lewis!!! To me, he is the funniest of them all and his acting is just incredible. From the weird sounds he makes to the way he speaks, its just a pleasure to watch him.So what makes this show such a success? Well, the cast and crew are amazing, the plots are brilliant and the comic lines of these characters are simply amazing. The show also doesn't overuse the laughing tracks like other shows. The only bad thing about the show is the stupid laughing track, but it doesn't totally wreck it or anything.Remember, this review is coming from a person who has watched every episode of this series and is well aware of the characters, their acting, the funny lines and the story. This is the only Disney show that has kept me laughing so hard, and so long. In fact, sometimes if I begin to laugh, I just can't stop myself. No other Disney show did this to me. This proves that SLOZAC has something special about itself.There are two more characters that are totally amazing and they are Estaban, a bellhop and Arwin, a man who tries to invent things and goes horribly wrong. He also has a huge crush on Carey, the twins mother. Estaban is perhaps one of the funniest of them all. His accent, his acting and everything is amazing.Besides, for young twins like Dylan and Cole to act, its just a huge talent. The acting of every character is amazing, and the way that things happen in this show is far beyond amazing.If you've liked some of Disney's other shows, you'll certainly love this one. This is Disney's most popular show, I think. Anyways, to sum it all up, you better watch these episodes. Purely amazing.

Well maybe it wasn't awesome, but season 1 was pretty good. It was a nice way to wake up on a Saturday morning. The jokes were innocent and funny. Sure, it had a few of those slow, sad scenes that you usually find in any family sitcom (take "Two of a Kind", "8 Simple Rules" etc.) but those times were actually pretty sweet. One thing that I liked about "Seinfeld" is that there were no sad scenes. But I forgive "Suite Life", it was funny the other 95% of the time.Then, the long-awaited season 2 came out. The kids' hair was longer, and their voices got deeper. They had hit puberty. Uh-oh. All of a sudden, the kids became obsessed with the opposite sex. Most of the episodes in season 2 have something to do with their attempts to get a girl. The other episodes in season 2 had plain out bad writing.My least favourite episode was called "Birdman of Boston". This has to be the worst episode in this series. Cody adopts a bird, and when he realizes that it has to go and be free, he starts crying. Now, this scene could've been a real tear jerker, if it had been directed by someone who worked on "Scrubs". But because it wasn't a good dramedy director that was running the show, also that Cole Sprouse can't act that well (sorry Cole), it just wasn't a great episode.The third season wasn't bad, the writers were obviously not giving their 100% effort, but it was still okay. I haven't seen much of it, because season 2 didn't get me very excited for the next season. It was a good thing that Disney canned the show, giving them a chance to hire fresher writers for more horrible Disney sitcoms to come.The character development just got out of hand after season 1. Cody (Cole Sprouse) just got so annoying with his smart-ass comments. He was a funny nerd in season 1, he just got annoying after that. "The Big Bang Theory" has shown how to make nerds funny. Disney should take this as a lesson. London Tipton (Brenda Song) was funny as the stupid girl in season 1. One of the great, original turns that this show made was having the Asian girl be the dumb girl, and the blonde being the smart one. After season 1, the jokes got old and London became WAY too stupid. In season 1, those two were my favourite characters, in seasons 2-3, they were the most annoying.I plan to have my next review be on the spin off show. It ain't artwork, but its still not terrible.If this show ended after season 1, and left us wanting more, or better yet, kept the tone of the first season throughout the series, I think I would've liked it more.6/10: not terrible, not great, just okay.

I stumbled upon this entry looking for an actor. I expected to see uniformly negative reviews (if any at all; the show is really not worth the effort). But I see so many positive reviews that I can only conclude that it is part of a coordinated effort by Disney to promote this garbage. If Disney doesn't directly write the favorable reviews, it at least creates the zombie-like following that actually recruits others into the Disney grave of imagination. I, therefore, thought it important to provide an adult point of view.I agree with the reviewers who are almost speechless in their attempt to explain what trash this series is. It has to be directed by people who failed film school. If you were to compile the very worst mannerisms of the very worst American sit-coms of the past 2 or 3 decades, you would define the style of the direction of this mess. And I cannot imagine what kind of "adults" sit around writing the "zingers" that the kids mouth to adults. If you think your job is dreary, imagine being a writer for this program. The writing is bad even by Disney standards. A friend of mine told me he was at a business conference where Disney was held up as an example of good branding. You always know what you are going to get from Disney -- like McDonalds; the quality is within a very narrow band. But I swear either the quality monitors failed to read scripts or the quality band must be ratcheting down at that "Entertainment" Complex. All I can say is that to be a Disney writer, you must have to check your self-respect at the door.But here is what is really disturbing for parents. The characters are horrible, and yet somehow made to appear cute to 'Tweens. Disney evidently has some study about how to mesmerize 'Tweens. I have yet to see a 'Tween that watches this show regularly that doesn't ape the mannerisms of some of the characters.But it's worse than that. The kids on the show have a contemptuous view of adults, all of whom are stupid, mean (and stupid), vain, or have character flaws. And all of them can be manipulated by the kids -- who despite doing vile, deceitful, immature things are always forgiven because they are "cute."And all the little viewers who become addicted to this mess will soon be mimicking that very same manner towards adults. I saw my own kids (when they were 8) start to come up with "sit-com" type "quips" at me and others and I was bound to find out where it came from. I watched everything they saw on TV until I identified the source as this very despicable program.While watching many (ugh!) Disney program I also noticed that Disney is really not an entertainment company any more. It is simply a vast licensing and cross-promoting marketing organization. It is so vast and so effective that I feel sorry for those ad execs who tried to get kids to eat sugary cereal in the 60s -- how much they could have made had they known what Disney knows now.As a result of the "experience" of watching Disney, I banned the channel from my kids' permitted viewing. As a "liberal" I was reluctant to do it (and even admit it), not just because I naturally believe in free speech but because I was not convinced that TV affects behavior -- until I saw what this program did to kids. After several weeks of not watching this trash, my kids returned to relative normal, although there is still an occasional relapse a year later. (I wonder if they were able to ditch the behavior so quickly because I nipped it in the bud -- you might not have such luck if you allowed long-term damage to be done.) Since then I've mentioned my banning to others, and I've found among the parents who actually watched what their kids watched, universal agreement. Parents who watch Suite Life are uniformly horrified at what it signals to kids -- cheap, unfunny writing, delivered by untalented children and worse adults, directed by robots programmed from some inane formula as something worth aspiring to. It is a shame. It is an entirely new and qualitatively different form of "dumbing down."It is also disturbing to find a common theme of most Disney programs that happiness involves becoming a pop idol, and that this goal is neither impractical nor difficult. But that is an entire other screed.I cannot urge you strongly enough to watch at least one episode, and decide whether your children should be exposed to it.
