lexa-lascola singing, dancing, and characters ain't too great, but the wild Bertram appearance makes this movie a truly unforgettable experience!!!!! 10/10 would recommend (Bertram)Bertram's amazing acting skills make every scene 10000x more delightful. He made me have new views on living, He got me out of a deep depression and can't believe how he did the impossible, truly a life saver. I named my 7th kid after Bertram. For Bertram, I cannot get enough. He really makes the stars 'tWinkle' if you know what i mean ;). He puts the but in butler. He is my everything. I eat, sleep and breathe Bertram. Bertram is love...Bertram is life.

jebert1066 If you liked the 60's beach movies, Grease and HSM, you might like this too.Reviewers who want character development, award winning acting and such should lighten up! This is a spoof of the corny, tongue in cheek "Beach" movies of the 60's.My 7 year old daughter loved the dancing and musical numbers, as did I. It's very corny, the music and dance numbers were surprisingly good. The wardrobe and hair were exactly as goofy as kid might see them if they saw the 60's films now.It's a fun, entertaining, corny (get it), harmless film....watch it, expect nothing, enjoy it for what is!!

A_Different_Drummer The astonishing success of High School Musical in 2006 , which successfully blended the musicality of the old MGM movies with a contemporary tale of teenagers trying to find themselves, is made all the more astonishing by the simple fact that this movie was ever made. TEEN BEACH MOVIE is nothing more and nothing less than a "cautionary tale," cataloguing in one short but still extremely painful film all the things that can wrong if you actually make a movie without having a clue what you are doing. As the "dedication" off the top makes abundantly clear, the film is meant to be some sort of affectionate spoof or take-off of the original beach movies which, of course, the Disney studio more or less pioneered. Hold it. Stop right there. That was the first monster error in judgement by the producers. See, the original Disney beach movies were themselves social spoofs. The 60s was a time of social chaos and Hollywood elected to respond to that by creating "escapist" films which allowed both teenagers and adults to participate in the insanity from the safety and comfort of a soft theatre seat. The producers of the original beach movies shrewdly understood that the real audience for their films was NOT teenagers living on the beach in southern California -- THEY ALREADY HAD THE REAL THING ON THEIR DOORSTEP -- but, essentially, everyone else on the planet. The larger, and more lucrative, market was offering the vicarious thrill of eyeballing the beach crowd from cities that did not even have much sunshine, yet alone sand and sea. It was a time of change, revealing bathing suits were new, even colour movies were new. The producers of the originals understood this, and used this to their advantage. The producers of TEEN BEACH MOVIE understand nothing, as evidenced by their attempt to "make a spoof out of a spoof" (replete with production numbers in the sand, and, God Help Us, a walk-on by a Mad Scientist). For that strategy to even have a chance of working, their target audience would have to be the SAME audience that saw the originals. See the flaw in logic? What this movie does succeed in doing is seriously threatening the careers of everyone who appeared in it, Even Grace Phipps, who was very effective in the short-lived Chloe King series, looks lost, as though she wandered onto the wrong set. And the Continuity Editor (assuming this production could afford one) did not seem to notice that the young lady had the complexion of Johnny Depp from Dark Shadows, and looked like she had never been on a beach in her life. Bottom line -- shows you what could have happened to High School Musical, if the wrong people had been behind the production.

moviesrme10 This is one of the few better Disney Channel films. Maia Mitchell is cute and a very talented actress and Ross Lynch as well and very, very bright. This is kinda an annoying film at times, and features several made for kids trademarks, such as horribly cheesy characters and dialogue, but makes up for it with the music, which is very original and catchy as well as the opening which really set the characters feelings, and at points I wish they'd stayed in that world. All together a decent kiddie fair, that is annoying yet watchable. The film tries to be good, but is mostly waterlogged and predictable! Still children will enjoy the catchy tunes and cast. C
