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

A vehicle for fans of Joe Jonas with some truth about the "work" of showbiz in its extras

Even though Camp Rock's DVD includes one disc; there are comparatively more extras, like songs, videos and the like. Someone actually says, "None of these kids has any of this handed to them.". I loved that show). 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. Demi has that Sally Field winsomeness down pat ABC should have no trouble recasting if they ever bring back The Flying Nun. In between there are lots of people who earn what they get because they work hard.
Kids often see either the extreme of fun and glamour or the extreme of dysfunction. 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. 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. 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."). (Seriously, which Saint can I pray to for that.
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. His brothers have marginal roles, reportedly due to Joe's insistence they be included. However, as the "Rock Star" segments continue, the more refreshingly straightforward they become, and the less public relations-driven they seem. It's a message rarely shown with any degree of emphasis on today's various entertainment magazine shows. 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.
What I like is that they balance material like Demi giving the impression that she's having a constant ball making the movie.

The Jonas Brothers are amazing and so was Demi Lovato. The songs were great. I loved this movie and have watched it about a million times. This is one of my favorite movies.

The movie is great, but what's with full screen only?

It was a huge disappointment to find out that the movie is only 4x3. I wish I had read the details better on Amazon. 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. Sadly the DVD version falls short in presentation. Unfortunately I knocked this rating down to 3 stars because of the forced 4x3 format on DVD. The movie itself is 4 stars.
Disney, what are you thinking. 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 plot obviously isn't too deep but allows you to have fun throughout the movie. Even as an adult (38) and father or two boys (5 & 8) I found myself enjoying the movie. Long story short.

but over in all, I give it 3 stars. Really didn't have any point to it, it was a good musical, had good music, It just didn't hit it for me. High School musical had it all. This movie did have a few drama scenes, and had a very few story lines. Disney should have had more to it then what was shown.
