  • Starring: Aimee Teegarden, Christine Elise, Nicholas Braun
  • Summary: At "Prom," every couple has a story and no two are exactly alike. Several intersecting stories unfold at one high school as the big dance approaches; "Prom" portrays the precarious passage from high school to independence as some relationships unravel and others ignite. For Nova Prescott, it's a battle of wills as she finds herself drawn to the guy who gets in the way of her perfect prom. Fellow seniors Mei and Tyler harbor secrets, while others face all the insecurity and anticipation that surrounds one of high school's most seminal events. There are hundreds of nights in high school, but there's only one "Prom." (Walt Disney Pictures) … Expand

    A highly entertaining original movie that's funny, touching and real.

    An adorable cast ought to provide some appeal for tweens and tykes, though interest should gradually dwindle the closer one gets to actual prom-going age.

    Here's a by-the-playbook movie if ever there was one.

    Prom, aww, pretty film. I love all the works that Disney do, and Prom is an excellent example. The trama is very funny, the characters, story, all is funny in this film.… Expand

    It seems as though a writing team outlined the whole movie with plenty of characters and situations and simply forgot to add the actual writing and, more importantly, the heart. You'd never want to see this movie a second time, like you would a John Hughes movie or even 10 Things I Hate About You or Can't Hardly Wait. Teegarden's character is so flat through so much of the movie, only to open up a bit at the very end. And her parents?? Hank from Breaking Bad was so underutilized, and when he does his "bad thing", the wife has no reaction. She can either be pissed or supportive, but she can't do nothing! It's a cop out. Small point, but come on!… Expand

    Garbage absolute garbage. The camera man was never able to keep the camera in the same place. The only thing worse is the story. Unless you are a 13 year old girl avoid this movie like the sin that it is.… Expand
