Camp Rock (2008)
Entertaining Movie
So as a 20 something girl who has loved Disney Channel Original Movies since the beginning, I wasn't disappointed with this one either. The music was excellent and most of the acting, especially from Joe and Demi, was great.
Some are complaining about the predictability of the movie, but Disney has found a formula that works. Two people meet, fall for each other, some huge controversy, and finally the big finish where everyone ends up happy. Of course it isn't going to deviate much from that formula.
There were some problems with the movie. Some of the acting was horrible and there were some plot holes or skips. Some characters were introduced and then never went anywhere, especially in the big finale.
Joe was a good actor, as where his brothers. Kevin's dumb act cracked me up. The Jonas Brothers and Demi all did great jobs.
The only other problem I have with the movie is the same problem I had with the first HSM, no kiss from the main stars at the end. Honestly if this was set with normal teenagers in mind they would have been making out halfway through the movie! I'm not saying it needs to be over the top like that, but at the end there were 3 separate times that a kiss would have been obvious. In earlier original movies, the main characters always share a kiss. I'm understand they don't want it to be "inappropriate" to the age they are marketing to, but there are a lot of people that aren't in that tween age group, including parents, that like these movies too. Plus I'm sure all those screaming tween were expecting a kiss too! Overall, this will be one of those movies I will watch when it's on, and will probably download some of the songs.
Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights (2004)
This is awesome
I absolutely LOVED this movie. Deigo Luna was so hot! This was not as good as the first, but considering it wasn't really a sequel but more like a completely different movie I thought it was awesome. The acting was good, the dancing awesome, and the soundtrack even better. I loved the dance they did at the Palace and I would recommend this movie to anyone and everyone. Both the lead actors are new and I hope that we will be seeing a lot more of each of them. This is a sweet story of an interacial relationship in Cuba where the white girl from America falls in love with the sexy Cuban pool boy! They are so awesome together and it was a wonderful movie. With the sexy dancing and the sexy music and the typical(but good) storyline this is the perfect movie to watch anytime!
10/10
