Camp Rock is a Disney Channel original movie about a rockin' teen summer camp that's highly appealing to tweens and young teens despite the movie's failure to favorably compare with truly great Disney Channel movies like High School Musical. Joe Jonas (of the Jonas Brothers stars as Shane Gray, a member of the rock band Connect 3, who is compelled to serve as an instructor at Camp Rock in order to counteract his increasingly negative public image. Tess Tyler (Meaghan Jette Martin) is the camp diva whose self-absorption defies description, Caitlyn (Alyson Stoner) is a past Tess groupie who's now ostracized from the popular kids at camp, and Mitchie (Demi Lovato) is a camp newcomer whose mother is the camp cook. Caitlyn initially befriends Mitchie, but the friendship wanes when Mitchie makes up an elaborate story about her family to get accepted into Tess's exclusive clique. As Mitchie struggles to maintain her façade around camp, Shane begins to reform his bad-boy ways and find his own personal voice and he and Mitchie become friends--unfortunately, their new relationship is based partially on Mitchie's lies. In the end, Mitchie's deception is exposed as is Tess' true villainy and the perfect summer camp experience threatens to turn into the worst summer ever for everyone involved. Camp Rock is infused with lots of energy, fun choreography, and a ton of good, if not particularly memorable, music. Add in the cast of generally unlikable characters with extreme characteristics whose changes of heart at the end of the film are not particularly believable, and Disney's got an entertaining film for tweens and teens that adults might just as well skip. --Tami Horiuchi

Usual Disney song and dance August 31, 2008
19 out of 19 found this review helpful
This is a Disney Channel Original Movie, so don't go into it expecting anything too much in the way of a plot. The sitcom-type story is supported (and padded) by a full soundtrack of tween pop music and dancing, and touches on many of the issues facing the target age group, namely fitting in, peer pressure, un-cool and too-cool parents, jealousy, and last but not least, loving the Jonas Brothers.
Tween idol Joe Jonas plays the leading man, a young pop star who's been behaving badly, and gets sentenced to teaching dance classes at an upscale summer camp for musicians. The other Jonas brothers also play supporting roles, and perform a couple of songs at the camp.
Demi Lovato plays the female lead, a promising singer/songwriter whose mother takes a catering job at the camp so that she can afford the fees. There's also the rich girl, played by Meaghan Jette Martin, and her obligatory two henchgirls; the usual outcast who befriends the new girl (well played by Alyson Stoner), and the well intentioned Camp Director. Add some supporting singers and dancers, and a ready group of back-up dancers, and you have (drum roll) Camp Rock.
Short Attention Span Summary (SASS):
1.Girl goes to camp and meets boy
2.Girl messes up big time
3.This is a Disney movie, so after the song and dance, everyone lives happily ever after.
While I recognize the age-appropriate manner in which the movie addresses certain issues, the wrapping up happens far too quickly to be even remotely believable, but then, the target audience probably isn't paying too much attention to the story anyway.
I've seen girls doing the "I'm not worthy" bow in front of posters for this movie, so I'm guessing that it would be a good gift for any fan of the Jonas Brothers on your list.
Tween rating: 4.5 stars
Adult rating: 3 stars (given for the music and the family values)

Pretty Okay Disney movie-love it for the songs August 29, 2008
I am glad that both Camp Rock[Extended edition] and The Hannah Montana and Miley Cyrus Best of Both World Concert 3D were released at the same time and they had some deal when you buy both. I bought both. On Camp Rock, the whole story line is okay and typical, there is always those group of girls who single out a girl who is sort of different from them. The girls on there weren't that great at acting,but I really enjoyed watching it for the music and songs by the Jonas Brothers and Demi Lovato. The other characters who sang on there were also good. I would't mind watching it again and that's what I like about most Disney movies.
A vehicle for fans of Joe Jonas with some truth about the "work" of showbiz in its extras August 27, 2008
Camp Rock was so long anticipated for its Disney Channel premiere that, as far as the local kids were concerned, the world stopped turning that evening. Though it's sort of being sold as a Jonas movie, it's really a vehicle for up-and-coming young star Demi Lovato and "ouch he's sooooooo keee-uwww-te!" Joe Jonas. His brothers have marginal roles, reportedly due to Joe's insistence they be included. Demi has that Sally Field winsomeness down pat -- ABC should have no trouble recasting if they ever bring back The Flying Nun. (Seriously, which Saint can I pray to for that? I loved that show.)
The movie follows the garden-variety teen formula, where the nice girl learns to be true to her mom and her friends and herself and the mean girl is told off (with perhaps the greatest line in the history of teen movies: "B-T-W, your lip gloss is soooo not glossy anymore!")
Even though Camp Rock's DVD includes one disc; there are comparatively more extras, like songs, videos and the like. What really impressed me was, believe it or not, "How to Be a Rock Star," a series of mini-docs currently being promoted on the Disney Channel. What I like is that they balance material like Demi giving the impression that she's having a constant ball making the movie. That may be true, but it could also give young, impressionable kids the idea that it's a nonstop laugh-filled party to be a showbiz kid.
However, as the "Rock Star" segments continue, the more refreshingly straightforward they become, and the less public relations-driven they seem. Kids need to hear how much practice, school, dedication, discipline and hard, hard work all of the cast must commit to in order to make any kind of success.
It's a message rarely shown with any degree of emphasis on today's various entertainment magazine shows. Kids often see either the extreme of fun and glamour or the extreme of dysfunction. In between there are lots of people who earn what they get because they work hard. Someone actually says, "None of these kids has any of this handed to them."
 Awesome movie!!!! August 26, 2008
I loved this movie and have watched it about a million times! The Jonas Brothers are amazing and so was Demi Lovato! This is one of my favorite movies! The songs were great!
 The movie is great, but what's with full screen only? August 25, 2008
Even as an adult (38) and father or two boys (5 & 8) I found myself enjoying the movie. The plot obviously isn't too deep but allows you to have fun throughout the movie.
Sadly the DVD version falls short in presentation. I find it a mistake to not offer a widescreen version of the film other than Blu-Ray. Seeing that there was only one option to purchase as a DVD, I had assumed that either both versions were on the disc or that it was just widescreen. It was a huge disappointment to find out that the movie is only 4x3.
Long story short. I wish I had read the details better on Amazon. In the end I would have not purchased this and just let the kids continue to watch the HD version we recorded on the DVR with commercials.
The movie itself is 4 stars. Unfortunately I knocked this rating down to 3 stars because of the forced 4x3 format on DVD.
Disney, what are you thinking?
