    There's nothing objectionable about the messages of the piece: always be true to yourself and treat everyone with dignity and respect. But teens and adults may find it a little saccharine.

    Camp Rock is glossy, all right, and should provide a glow for Walt Disney Co.
  3. What matters is how well it's done, and Disney does a lot of things right. It's multicultural. Parents are portrayed as people. The intrapersonal dramas are small enough so viewers will understand them.

    Like "High School Musical," it's a painfully simple but efficient fairy tale for a generation that never heard of Frankie and Annette, blending music with teen angst about fitting in--all built around a likable protagonist, multiethnic cast and hot pop trio.

    The end was very obvious to me. But in one point in the movie I had already figured out a way for Tess to get Shane. Just sing Mitchie's song!!!

    I must say that Camp Rock is a disappointing movie, Disney Camp Rock thought that the success achieved in HSM2 but eventually got boring and predictable musical youth, the participation of the jonas brothers seem more publicity of proceedings, since in promos of the film is aunciaba they were major stars, in fact his performance was not all convincing, as joe jonas bad boy when he is an angel of God, xd, is not what the hell I was thinking about Disney Channel, on the Acting Demi Lovato and Alyson Stoner, I must say they were ... good but they are not a prodigy, the songs become tedious and predictable because they are teen pop to rock, i give it a rating of 4 for the tedious songs, unconvincing and disappointing acting, and the movie is only for the jonas fangirls , sorry for my English, I'm latin.

    This movie sucks!! The plot sucks. The movie is a big scam, lots of false adverting about the Jonas brothers and Joe Jonas's character in the movie is stupid'! There is too many unexplained stuff! It is a complete rip-off of Hilary Duff's 'Raise your Voice' Expand
