I enjoyed it (but don't tell anyone) - By: haunted, 06 Nov 2008
As a straight 39-year-old man I was wary of watching High School Musical to say the least. However I really enjoyed it.

Okay, it is an all smiling all dancing cheesy musical. And you can predict the storyline from the opening credits. But it is donein such a pleasant way that you probably won't be able to help yourself singing along, even if it is to yourself!

The story is hardly groundbreaking. Boy meets girl on vacation. They click (singing a karaoke duet, of course) and, would you believe it, she is transferred to his High School. He's a top basketball player but has a secret desire to sing & dance. They try out for the school musical & the rest as they say is history, or at least a good laugh.

Some scenes are quite funny, the main & supporting cast are excellent. There's nothing more to say except enjoy this movie, even if you may not want to admit it afterwards!

It's alright - By: Anja Schmidt, 17 Oct 2008
High School musical is alright entertainment, it got some alright songs, & some alright dancing, & it's a fine movie to enjoy on a boring saturday night (or something), but if you're looking for a real musical treatment, & want something extremely good & actors that are extremly good at both singing, dancing & acting, & a plot that really rock, I suggest you watch Newsies! That's how a true musical should be done!

Cheese Balls - By: R. L. Haydon, 08 Sep 2008
After accidentally buying 6 copies of this film, I decided I'd watch it until I loved it. It was pure cheese, with precious American teens singingin often nasal voices. On the surface it's something that I would usually hate - but somehow, it drew me in. This isn't to say that the plot was thrilling, well written, or easily defined as a plot at all - but it was enough to keep mein my seat & entertained well enough. Even though this isn't a shining review - I would recommend watching it if it's available to borrow - but not worth buying perhaps.
