    Fun. Not groundbreaking, but fun.
    I figured this would be a teen musical with some religious references and average acting, and that's what I got, BUT I didn't expect the kids voices to be so good. The dialogue was expectedly fun and cheesy (if not always clever) without smacking you over the head with god, BUT the choreography was very spirited. (No pun intended, seriously just thought that's the best word to describe it.) The rapport between the 2 main guys was excellent, the lead actor and actress had decent chemistry, and the second lead actress was charming. Only the "villian" guy annoyed me due to a cliche character and hammy acting.

    I'm not religious at all, not one iota, but I don't come down on others if that's what they choose to believe, and one of the best things about this movie is even with all the references, I didn't feel like it was trying to convert me. There are MANY mainstream movies with god messages equal to this, where characters pray to be saved or forgiven. My point is, I don't want people to be turned off by the religious aspect of this. They'd be missing out on a fun, cheesy, uplifting, sweet, silly movie.
