    High School Musical Knockoff
    I have mixed feelings. It wasn't very interesting and I got bored watching it, yet the promotion of young actors is nice to see. It felt like a Christian version of high school musical, taking the same plot line:

    #1: Boy can't be who he wants to be #2: Boy meets girl who he can't have #3: Boy finds he is amazing, says the truth and lives happily ever after

    Honestly, I like HSM better. It's nice, and I freaking LOVE George, though he can be cringey at times. Nice movie ig, but I hope Netflix doesn't keep going in this direction of creating bad movies instead of keeping good shows like Julie And The Phantoms. They want this, but don't like kids who are actually good singers, (not to be mean lol) and don't have that DCOM nasal voice? I mean, seriously.

    Very Nice
    The movie was absolutely nice for younger teenagers. I don't why it felt very nice to watch this movie mare than 2 times. It had very nice music. I still hear it on Spotify. I will always recommend to watch this movie with friends. I wish that it gets a second part. It's the first movie that I have seen on Netflix with no adult seens.

    Meh
    I love the ideas of turning around the kid, but not everything needs to be a musical. Sometimes, it's better to act natural instead of being extra and making the show feel fake and hollywood-like.
