Fame - Review

24 Sep 2009 23:00:17 PDT

Written by Rob
A tepid, cliche-ridden movie, Fame 2009 is more content to play to formula and embrace the High School Musical fan club rather than the edginess of its far better predecessor. As with the original, the film follows a group of students as they vy for success and recognition at the New York Cit...

Opinion: Zac Efron's 17 Again interview with AlloCiné

Zac Efron: Yes. I was 17 or something like that during the first “High School Musical”. We were just getting started and I didn’t really know what people would think about this in the States, how they would react. Nobody was expecting such a huge success. Actually, going to high school was still...

06 Nov 2008 11:40:05 PST

Written by Webmaster Greg
Tiara really is a mini-Sharpay. Not only does she get the info on Gabriella’s scholarship, she researches it online and gives it to Sharpay, who plants the seeds in Troy’s head. So Sharpay got Gabriella’s part. If feels like we’ve been down this road before…

Written by noreply@blogger.com (Ryan)
Corny as it all was, I had to admit, the energy in this sequence was through the roof. Series director and head choreographer Kenny Ortega (who was the choreographer on 1987's Dirty Dancing) knows how to work his audience, and makes the opening number into quite a showstopper in its own way. I...

Review of ‘High School Musical 3:Senior Year’

24 Oct 2008 13:25:22 PDT

Written by Julie
It all started with High School Musical 1. It was this “little” Disney Channel Original Movie with some new young actors who could sing and dance pretty good. The movie ended up being a success for the network and so that opened up the door for High School Musical 2, also a DCOM. Who knew that the f...

I'm not only the wrong demographic for High School Musical 3: Senior Year, but I'm old enough to be bringing a theoretical child of my own to the movie as the right demographic. In fact, I was the oldest person in the theater without an accompanying child. I would have felt skeevy commenting on...

Written by contrapuntist
I think most music theatre traditionalists will cringe at the thought, but there is something to be said about musicals re-emerging into American pop culture with the popularity of High School Musical. As a kid, I never had the luxury of going to see good musical theatre, so I never really...

Written by Victor Lana
When I first reviewed the original Disney movie High School Musical, I had no idea what I was getting into. Before I watched it, I believed (rather naively I might add) that this was going to be just another TV movie concocted for kids, some pabulum-like entertainment that wouldn’t hold my i...

NY Times reviews High School Musical 2, another excuse to post a Zac Efron picture

17 Aug 2007 13:17:56 PDT

But like both of those esteemed works, “High School Musical 2” has, heaven help us, haphazard charm. Yes, it’s badly lip-synched, badly danced and doused in self-tanner, but the kids seem so earnest and good-natured (Lucas Grabeel as Ryan Evans comes into his own in this one) that you root...
