ssra_25 I don't usually like teenage movies because they are all pretty much the same, but I admit I liked this one. I ended up with a smile on my face at the end of the movie, something which for me is an indication that I enjoyed the movie. So there's no reason I shouldn't give it a 10.And I remembered some of my experiences from my high-school experience (which was a calm and beautiful one), which was another indicator that I liked the movie.So yep, it gets a 10 from me.

tajera belieber Well The Disney's prom is not a movie which i expected. It played out a lot different than i thought! it is a movie that the whole family can watch in terms i would give it a five because i was expecting a lot more from this movie! when it advertises it makes it look much more fun than when you are actually watching the movie! i love that the two stars got together in the end! i thought that the script was not well thought through but it was not that bad in terms well some terms. It was missing the fun when watching this show i didn't see my self laughing and i am a very peppy girl that laughs when i get a good joke or even a stupid joke i would laugh because it's senseless but i didn't do that much through the whole movie. At some points i smiled because of the different scenes but that's all i can say for now i leave the rest to you!!

Mikey C How I ended up watching a clichéd Disney produced film at two in the morning is anyone's guess. How I persevered after the first fifteen minutes is an even more puzzling question. The opening of this film is truly diabolical; bad lines, bad acting, totally derivative, the characters nothing but stereotypes. There's also what feels like dozens of people introduced within the first five or six scenes, which is never good. The hero (anti-hero) was pretty much a carbon copy of Judd Nelson in The Breakfast Club; and of course, the guy from the wrong side of the tracks falls for the rich girl, dad warns him off, but it all comes right in the end.To my surprise it picked up, and I even had a smile on my face by the end, which is surely the point of these sugary tween movies. The highlights were the two hipster indie kid sophomores, played by the very promising Cameron Monaghan and Nolan Sotillo. The banter was funny, they had great chemistry with each other, they acted great and looked the part. No reason they shouldn't go far in the future, and I believe Monaghan has already established himself in television. The rest of the cast were serviceable if a little less memorable.As for the plot and writing, it was all of course hopelessly predictable, and some of the lines will have you laughing for the wrong reasons, but somehow it was almost refreshing to watch a film where I knew there would be a happy ending. Grown up Hollywood has a tendency to feel their film won't be considered 'serious' or 'artistic' if they don't end it with tragedy, which leads to many an inane and pointless death to close out a movie. Here, the good guys get together, lessons are learned, and there are enough nice little sweet moments like the candy necklace (no pun intended) to feel your intelligence hasn't been insulted too much by sitting through a movie that really anyone over thirteen will have seen many times before. It helped that the soundtrack was excellent, especially the M83 and Passion Pit songs. Films like this are a great way for tweens to find music other than what is promoted on the radio or music channels.There are many worse films than this, although I can't think of many worse opening few scenes.

napierslogs "Prom" is the Disney version of prom for teenagers. Or make that 17 year-olds acting like 12 year-olds (but of course acted by 20 year-olds). It's immature because it fails to bring in any humour, reality, or surprises that people of any age could enjoy. The plot is like every other adolescent romantic comedy. High-schoolers are getting ready for prom, led by the over-achieving, blonde, class president, but who is being opposed by the local rebel.The rebel is the leather jacket-wearing, too-cool-for-school, dark and handsome type with long hair. There are many examples of movies with this character, but the one that comes to my mind is "Cry-Baby" (1990), the Johnny Depp starrer. Thomas McDonell is a Johnny Depp look-a-like (as in, looks exactly like him), and at least in comparison of their two identical movies, he even acts like him too. McDonell could very well become the Johnny Depp of the next generation. Next year, he will at least play him in the up-coming "Dark Shadows" (2012) where Depp is the vampire Barnabas Collins and McDonell is the "young Barnabas Collins." Instead of writing in additional plot lines (i.e. more than just getting ready for prom), we got additional characters (all of them getting ready for prom). There were way more than I could possibly care about. The movie probably would have been better spent turning the "main" characters into more endearing people. None were unlikable, they were just fairly bland, and a lot had difficulty delivering the cheesy lines."Prom" is at least predictable on purpose, nobody is supposed to be caught off-guard, and we're just supposed to naturally fall for the sweetness of the overly simplified teenage relationships on screen. It is sweet and good-natured, but despite all the characters' insistence for perfection, "Prom" is far from perfect.
