dream. And in beautiful clear New Mexico. Who could want anything more!

watching it each time it comes on T.V. I hope that everyone enjoyed this movie as much as I did. P.S so should really watch this movie. See Ya!

and made this movie stand out from the other Disney channel original movies, however, was the music, singing, and dancing. I loved the songs, especially 'What I've Been Looking For' as sung by Sharpay and Ryan, 'Breaking Free' by Troy and Gabriella, and Gabriella's solo, 'When There Was Me and You'. I was impressed by the vocal skills exhibited by the four main actors and actresses. The dancing sequences are also fun and well choreographed, and I loved how they were right in sync with the music.Overall, in comparison to other Disney movies, this one is a 9/10. As a Disney channel movie, it inevitably has several flaws, the most obvious of which is the cliché, cheesy plot between the two main characters. I was also disappointed when there was no kiss between them, but that didn't really take away from the movie too much.Whether you're a 10-year old or a 30-year old, I highly recommend seeing this sweet, funny movie.

the new product of them! Look at Hillary Duff, Lindsay Lohan, Raven, and many others! This movie has a few soon to be rising stars in it! Good job Disney!!

school's "winter musicale." This is where we meet Sharpay and Ryan Evans, a brother and sister musical star team. It is soon revealed that Gabriella is a new student at Troy's school. After a lot of deliberation, Gabriella and Troy audition for the musical, much to Sharpay's, and their friends', dismay. I won't divulge how, but all end up happy, and celebrate in a fantastic closing song "We're all in this together!" It's the simplicity of the movie that makes it so wonderful. As a fan of musical theater and an amateur performer I played Mrs. Paroo this fall in The Music Man! HEHE! I loved every moment of this film. It is the essence of musical theater, parts of it were corny and over acted, but go to see any show on Broadway and you'll notice the same, it's a characteristic of musical theater. Other parts were heartfelt and lovely, without being overly sentimental. The music was beautiful and well sung overall. The actors didn't necessarily have the best voices, but they were all fully suited to their roles. Especially the girls. Ashley Tisdale is perfect as dive Sharpay. Any one who has been in a high school show recognizes this girl, there's one in every school. Vannessa Anne Hudgens is lovely as shy, intelligent Gabriella. She is practical and grounded but can't help wanting to do something as seemingly frivolous as singing in the school show and fall for the popular jock. The first time you see her smile you realize how adorable she is.High School Musical is definitely worth watching. If you're a fan of musicals you're sure to enjoy it.

other shows. In the movie Choreography takes a big factor into the dancing scenes. One thing that they forgot was to put more background into the 2 main characters, played by Zac and Vanessa. They should of added more about their family's, and where their from but otherwise it was amazing. I highly recommend this movie to anyone out there, if you love music, beautiful actors, great choreography this movie is meant for you!

roles are just as praise worthy, sometimes even better. Maybe if she had an older sister in college or something that used to get all the attention and she feels like she has to get lead roles to be considered as great as her sister, than her actions would be more understandable. I'm a little disappointed by that character; it's makes this normally good actress look pretty bad. I love Tisdale on the Suite Life of Zack and Cody, so I was pretty disappointed. But still, all in all, it was a very good musical. I almost cried at Gabriella's solo. I hope to see more of Vanessa Anne Hudgens. :

best actress because of the way she really handled things in the movie. Lucas Grabeel, also Ryan Evans paired with Ashley Tisdale, or Sharpay Evans and made the most hilarious brother and sister I have ever watched on TV. This movie is one of the best Disney Channel Original Movies, and I think it is a good use of time to watch it. Also, don't forget to go and buy the soundtrack quickly! It contains so much enthusiasm that was in the movie and it just makes you want to watch it over and over again. While watching this movie, I'm sure you are going to feel how I felt...I wish I could be the person starring in this movie...just because it was so well made, the choreography is explicitly fantastic and the storyline is just phenomenal. Once you see this movie you will be 'Breaking Free'.

a little hokey. Look at Grease or Annie, not that I'd rank this movie with either of those.The actors did a pretty good job on both the singing and acting. They weren't spectacular, but they definitely were right for this movie. Though, I do have to say that Ashley Tisdale's character, Sharpay, was over the top. This is probably more the fault of the writing, rather than her acting, because I do think that she is a good actress. All in all, for what it was, High School Musical did the job and left me pretty satisfied after seeing it. I am a junior in college and a music education major, so as practice for my future career, I will give this movie the grade of a B.
