This movie is enjoyable...once you realize that you shouldn't take it seriously. I am a huge fan of Disney movies but they could have done better. My biggest complaint comes from the continually lip syncing from ALL of the characters. It was obvious, some of the Jonas Brothers songs even sounded like they had backup singers. If these kids have voices, which many of them probably do, then they should be able to handle singing these songs normally or at least Disney could make the tracks more natural sounding. The acting is overdone but not completely terrible, although some of Demi Lovato's facial expressions don't fit. One of my favorites in this movie was actually Kevin Jonas, i thought he was hysterical. Alyson Stoner and Meghan Jette Martin also did pretty well acting wise. Once you consider who this movie was made for, girls under the age of 16, it immediately becomes easier to watch. Although I'm not a tween girl anymore I can honestly say that I still watch this movie because it's carefree and I don't have to have any real emotional connection to anything.
