Go Wildcats! School is back in session and the exceptionally flamboyant students of “I didn’t care to research the name” high school are back with an action packed performance. It’s senior year and everything is on the line: male lead and female lead are going off to college and might never see each other again; male lead has to lead the basketball team to victory so he can get with female lead; female lead has to win an important scholarship so she can go to college; and most importantly, both need to help organize the best senior musical ever to raise enough money to put up bail for their beloved principal who was imprisoned for the brutal rape and murder of one of the unpopular, non melodic students who nobody liked in the first place, so he can attend their senior play. Circular reasoning… I know.
Male lead puts up a spectacular performance. He is the perfectly generic high school heart throb who can sing, act (his character can, not him), and play awesome Bball with amazing cinematic cuts that make it look like he’s sinking them from half court. But really, honestly… he sucks.
Now Female lead… don’t get me started on her, oh wait, that’s what I’m supposed to do. Well, female lead brings it home with a sonorous voice and some scintillating outfits that old Walt definitely would not have approved of(don’t worry, she just plays a high school student in the movie)! She is the one redeeming feature of the movie, and not for her acting.
But seriously, this movie was awful, and this reviewer believes that it may be directly responsible for the Dow Jones Industrial Average 3% decline in blue chip stocks on the day it premiered!
