An OK movie
lisafordeay1 October 2010
I saw this on Disney Channel on September 17th and was looking forward to seeing it. A sequel to the 1st one its about Camp Rock who are up against another camp called Camp Star of course the two clash together and they dance and sing to see who is the best. Demi Lovato was great in this as well as the jonas brothers who one in particular drives me nuts as he is so annoying.

The music was great,the cast was alright,the duration was OK and the dialouge was OK.

I like one song in particular Its on which is a great song as well as the duet between Demi & Joe.

For the acting i'll give it a 5/10 For the story a 7/10 For the whole thing a 5/10 Not Oscar worthy but its alright.

The second visit is more pleasant...but not by much
dudedazzreviews7 October 2010
Disney Channel hit back with a sequel to the musical Camp Rock with Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam. The movie takes place a year after Camp Rock and is about Mitchie who returns to said place with her friends to find out that there's a new camp open across the lake called Camp Star. As you may guess, they both soon start to get in a little competition and decide to settle the score once and for all in a final jam X-Factor style, performing in front of millions of viewers live on television and whoever gets the most votes win. Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam is actually a very pleasant surprise as it's an improvement from the first one on everything and it's actually a little enjoyable. The plot might be just as cheesy and just as bad as Camp Rock and a little stretched but it's a Disney Channel musical movie so if you expected different, you will be disappointed. The sequel's story is much better and improved and actually felt like a proper movie and not a bunch of people singing songs randomly. Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam has the original cast from Camp Rock and they're much better. Demi Lovato, who plays Mitchie, can be bad sometimes but she did have her moments and the same can be said for The Jonas Brothers, who have also improved a lot.

The characters are better written and this time round, the other two brothers from The Jonas Brothers actually have a part in the movie whereas in Camp Rock, they were hardly in it or hardly got involved in any part of the movie. Mitchie and the other characters are more tolerable this time round but Tess the 'diva' and the characters from Camp Star are too irritating. The script and the writing has quite a few weak moments but there were a couple of good scenes. Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam not only has a better story but it also has better songs and dances and there are some songs that are actually catchy (although there is one song that sounds way too familiar to Jason Mraz's I'm Yours which is sang by one of the Jonas Brothers). The singing has improved from the first movie and The Jonas Brothers sound a little better this time but I still think that Demi Lovato can't sing properly. She screams and shouts her lines when she sings. It's not bad in the first minute of the song but as it kicks in, she starts shouting and screaming the notes and you constantly have the remote control in your hand, with your thumb on the volume buttons. With the first Camp Rock, it felt like it was trying too hard to be the new High School Musical and really pushed the boat to try and overtake the popularity and success of High School Musical, however it failed to impress. With the sequel, it could easily rival the successful High School Musical and is very easily better than Camp Rock.

Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam might be better than the first movie but that doesn't mean it's a good movie, it's average at best. In this sequel, you can actually see that they've tried to improve the movie from the first one and while it does pay off, the movie is instantly forgettable, even if there are a couple of songs that aren't bad. The messages in the movie is crystal clear and it's your usual Disney message of working together as a team and how you should stick together, no matter what. If you were a fan of the first movie or like Disney Channel shows and movies like High School Musical or Hannah Montana, then the chances are that you may like this. If you've missed it then don't worry because Disney Channel has repeated the movie four times every day so far so you won't miss it so easily. If you're a parent and you're watching this with your children, you may find it alright but it's something you couldn't watch again. I couldn't watch it again, just thinking about it is making me cringe a little.

seriously..???? hello!!?
whiteshadow16064 September 2010
OK.. I'm completely disappointed. It was generous enough for me to give 4 out of 10.

1st of all, I like the 1st Camp Rock way better. This one doesn't work for me at all. I keep forwarding the movie. Most of the parts are just lame. Especially the songs. Hate all the songs (maybe just one that i like) but that doesn't change the fact that this movie is suck.

Let me get this clear, i don't like Demo Lovato. I just hate her acting skill. She really should be focusing ONLY on her singing career!! She is suck at acting. I bet many will agree with me on this.

As a suggestion, maybe the next camp rock's director should find another girl for Mitchie's role.

Really, REALLY bad..
AngieeeBabayy3 September 2010
My best friend and I liked the original camp rock- but this one was just bad. However- it's as good as any Disney channel movie sequel as it oozes with cheesiness. Let me put it this way- I was staring at the television and I couldn't pay attention. It just was boring, and just overall- odd. There really was no climax- and if there was- it was only two minutes long. So in the end, you'll like it if you're under 13. You probably won't like it if you're any older.

Even though the original Camp Rock was weak with it's story, it still maintained the entertainment factor. This one, just didn't provide that. I felt like I was watching a mixture of High School Musical 2 mixed with that new Jonas show and Camp Rock. That combination just didn't work.

Enough Already
DiamondGirlfl7 September 2010
It seems that the only thing Disney can do is keep repeating itself over and over...with very little original anything being created. They are trying to promote another teen queen with using Demi Lovato in the starring role. While she can sing fairly well, her acting skills leave much to be desired. There is no depth to any of it. We are suppose to believe she is THAT upset about everything happening around her. The camp on the other side of the lake apparently has everything amazing going for them...and want to WIN the competition. The heck with having a fun and memorable summer...those kids are there because they ALL plan to be HUGE stars...soon...that is if their egos don't get in the way and they can prove they can actually sing, dance and perform. The well known Jonas Brothers show up..not as themselves...but as camp counselers...who are suppose to teach the younger kids how to be ROCK stars. Of course...two of the three seem to do OK..but one always seems to have issues...that we suppose to find funny..(Kevin..the now-married one...who never gets ANY love interest in any of their shows..)..While they do sing and play music...it isn't anything memorable at all. We know who we are suppose to cheer for...the good kids...the ones who have heart and are responsible...with or without adult supervision...which there is very little of most of the time. Lets' see...teenagers..left alone....in the woods...in cabins...HMMM..it adds up to more than just roasting marshmallows over the campfire. At least in the real world anyway. These are clean-cut Disney Kids though...and none have thoughts of anything even remotely out of line. What got me was they way these kids dressed...in the highest of fashion...very un-camping like attire. Who wears dresses and jewelery at camp? Both the girls and the guys were over-dressed big time. And yes...I know...it is a movie for pre-teens and teens that haven't outgrown family oriented programing. Trust me...in a few years...these same kids will think this stuff is lame. On to bigger and more adult themes...and then the next generation of Disney fans will come along. The way Disney crams their programing at everyone is ridiculous. It is like riding the rides in the Disney Parks...they are all fun the first few times you ride them...then after a while...you get tired of it all and wish for something else that is different and more memorable. The Disney of old is NOT the same as what they are cranking out today. Pity.

I thought it was reasonably good
TheLittleSongbird19 December 2011
Although it wasn't a perfect movie by any stretch of the imagination, I did like the first Camp Rock. Camp Rock 2 was reasonably good I felt, but I think the first was superior. Camp Rock 2 does look good, with nice photography and lovely fashions and scenery.

I also enjoyed the songs. Maybe not as memorable or as toe-tapping as the first in the first, but the melodies were pretty groovy and the lyrics decent and easy to sing along to.

Demi Levato like in the first is a breath of fresh air, both as a singer and an actress she shows a lot of promise. The supporting actors are not bad either.

However, the story is predictable and perhaps if they slowed the pace down some of the relationships could have been more believable and less underdeveloped. There is also some corniness in the scripting, and a lot of the characters are on the stereotypical side.

Overall, reasonably good if in need of improvement. 6/10 Bethany Cox

Camp Star
sasukedaisuke8 February 2020
Good movie. I was only wondering - if this was supposed to be a competition then why Camp Star had so bad songs and preference, they were nowhere as good as Camp Rock.

The music in this is gold!
brookenichole-980545 July 2020
I absolutely adore the music in this movie way more than the first one. The songs are just catchy and hold so much emotion. Camp Star was clearly better than Camp Rock but Camp Rock definitely had some amazing songs. The Jonas Brothers were really funny and sweet this time around. I loved that Shane (Joe Jonas) let go more in this one. Nick and Kevin were great and made me smile throughout. Mitchie's character could have been thought out more thoroughly. I wish she would've not been so rude to Shane. However, I do think she made up for that. The story was not as great as the first yet still held up. Overall, this movie is definitely worth it for the choreography, songs, and acting. It will put a smile on your face.

Changed
andreyz111110 September 2010
Its a "meh" its not great or bad, i think Demi changed a lot i wish she kept her hair (i liked the old "mitchie"), i think there are too many songs (except introducing me :D i loved that) too much but its still a good movie, Dem had too much (uhmm whats that called?) make up, in the last one she had less and it was better, Joe and Dem had too much parts (although that was the whole point :P) Nick and Chloe's parts were just random, i mean the binoculars and all that? Kevins and the kids were the cute parts :D and i don't get it at all (maybe i just missed that part) why did "Tess" end up with Camp Star? and in the beginning, she was just in the background...

~Id give it a "meh"~

This movie Is a complete failure
kobebusia25 May 2011
As I can see, the majority of you reviewers were disappointed about this movie, and I agree with most of you. 4 of the songs in this movie were lame, the Nate-Dana love story was pathetic, and Mdot's character Luke Williams was very annoying, but in a very hysterically funny way. The Jonas Brothers are easily the worst actors on Disney, but in this film, Kevin was the most fun to watch, and Demi's character Mitchie was annoying and became a crazy control- freak!!! Please note that this movie and the Cheetah Girls: One World were the worst DCOMS I've ever seen, and that's no surprise, considering that they were both directed by Paul Hoen, and co-written by Dan Berendsen, who ironically did a brilliant job of writing the Wizards of Waverly Place Movie. This movie sucks, and for those of you who haven't seen it, you're doing yourself a favor. It's so terrible that even the Camp Star songs were much better than Camp Rock songs. Another thing I'd like to add is that when Shane and Mitchie were arguing, I thought the scene would be well acted out but it was so weak and poorly done especially from Joe who's acting worsened mainly because Shane's personality altered between the 2 movies. Overall, I'd have to give this film a 4/10. What made Nate and Dana's love story so unrealistic was done by a number of stupid stuff: Like the charm bracelet hitting him in the eye, even though he was way in the audience just made no sense and it was random, as well as when he said "Here I am", and she randomly got mad and assumed he was "Just like every other teenage guy in the world"!!!!!!! Give me a break!!!!!!! Some other unrealistic situations included some songs in the movie, most notably, "Wouldn't Change A Thing, which is a good song, but who in their right mind would sing a duet when they're nowhere near each other, and at night, wouldn't that wake everybody up?!?!? The best song was It's on, and Introducing me was funny, but overall the film and it's soundtrack were very disappointing!!!!!! 4/10 Kobe Busia

Pure Cringe
ryanfox-6063616 April 2020
The movie is awful, this one and the one before it are the worst films to ever come out of Disney. The camp rock march into camp star will live in infamy as the cringiest moment in film ever.

A passable, but mildly disappointing return to "Camp Rock".
StartingAllOver146 September 2010
With the release of "Camp Rock" in 2008, Disney had found another franchise to milk alongside with "Hannah Montana" and "High School Musical"; a stereotypical movie about a regular teen chick with a regular teen problem, filled with catchy songs and some daily life vs. pop star struggles. However, the first "Camp Rock" was a movie which I genuinely enjoyed. While it's not a film of the lifetime, I found it to be sincere and quite likable. Just as most successful movie franchises, "Camp Rock" gets a sequel, but it's a well known term that most sequels aren't better than their predecessors – and unfortunately the highly promoted "Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam" is no exception and comes off as a mild disappointment.

With all consideration; "Camp Rock 2" isn't exactly bad; just a little disappointing. The film does have its cute and enjoyable moments, but comes across as less compelling as a whole. The main plot isn't exactly a misplaced choice from the screenwriters (a battle versus two camps), but while the first movie didn't exactly had a groundbreaking story, it had a more stronger, internal conflict; Mitchie's (Demi Lovato) conflict with Tess (Meaghan Martin) and her identity-struggle and Shane's (Joe Jonas) internal struggle of being a cold, inaccessible person because of his fear of being fooled by someone who wanted to take use his celebrity status. Besides, the script is less structured this time and jumps from a random musical sequence to another random musical sequence and the events feel less chronological (written by the not so cleverly Dan Berendsen, which has proved his lack of skills in several script).

The film wants to expand the screen time of the characters, but doesn't really take the time to develop them as they did in the first movie. The film gives more time to Shane's band members Nate (Nick Jonas) and Jason (Kevin Jonas). It's not strange that Kevin screen time gets expanded, since he's proved his comical ability and a charismatic presence in several Disney projects. But the subplot with Nate and his love interest Dana (Chloe Bridges) from the forbidden group "Camp Star" is just contrived, unnecessary and doesn't add anything to the plot. Another noteworthy notion is the appearance of Demi Lovato. Yes, this notion has been discussed before, but her appearance as Mitchie was more restrained and natural in the first movie. Now with her black hair, light tan and tons of makeup, she appears as a different character. No 'one shall blame Miss Lovato for her desire to change her appearance (after all, she's still in the puberty), but perhaps she could have waited to dye her hair after shooting the sequel? It seems like the director were more eager to turn this sequel into a "High School Musical" flick, with a more musical feel to the movie and having the characters suddenly break out into song and dancing to cheesy, choreographed dances. The tone and feel highly resembles the "HSM" sequel and the message is more kid-aimed and more kid friendly than in the first movie.

Okay, enough with the complaining; I did enjoy this movie to an extent. It has more kid friendly humor this time without being awkward, while at the same time, the tone is more mature as well. The film has several catchy songs, especially the excellent duet "Wouldn't Change a Thing" between Mitchie and Shane. The film introduces us to a few new characters, as the bragging and sexy Luke (Matthew Finley), Nate's love interest Dana, her cynical father who's the leader of Camp Star and even the youngest JoBro Frankie gets a cameo. The film has also its funny, sweet and sincere moments, has an unpredictable twist to the ending and a good moral.

So while "Camp Rock 2" fails to live up to its predecessor, it still makes a cute, harmless and watchable family flick. It's not a masterpiece and it's not intended to be one either, but a light TV flick which doesn't make any harm. Now let's see if Disney has intentions of making a third movie.

It's all about the music
meclaudius-851-52252021 September 2010
Having children has turned me on to bubble-gum pop, and it doesn't get much tastier than Camp Rock 2. The songs are catchy, but there's real emotion behind the writing and execution, more than there needed to be, and certainly more than the air-headed High School Musical films. When Demi Lovato sings "Can't Back Down," there's a certain gravity and toughness to the performance, and the song rocks like a boxing training montage. The background dancer's moves are somewhere between martial arts and sign language, and are executed with chilling precision. In contrast, "It's On" bounces with youthful energy, although I admit to being puzzled when putting the captions on ("let me see how you bob" will haunt me for months to come). The Camp Star numbers are all Vegas and Cirque glitz, and newcomer Mdot Finley owns the stage like an R&B Bono. The bittersweet "This Is Our Song," sung as the campers gather around a fire and uncertain of the fate of a place they've grown to love, turns defeat into victory by the sheer joy of singing in unison, of harmonizing with people you've bonded with. Do I take this stuff too seriously? Undoubtedly I do, but put that down to the genius of the songwriters and the likable performers Disney has under their wing. Well done.

Weak and extremely musical,...
RosanaBotafogo22 April 2023
Mitchie can't wait to get back to Camp Rock and spend the summer creating music with her friends and superstar Shane Gray. But the new camp across the lake, Camp Star, brought some serious competition - featuring newbies Luke and Dana. In a sensational battle of the bands, with the future of Camp Rock at stake, will the Camp Stars win with their flamboyant productions and over-the-top performances, or will the Camp Rockers prove that music, teamwork and soul really are everything what matters?

Just as silly as the first one, changes the story, keeps the characters, remains basic and boring, extremely musical, the story isn't all bad, a competition between rival camping groups, a simple little romance almost forced, after you've watched about 15 minutes you kind of get used to it, and we managed to win...

The music makes it worthwhile
Mike-DD18 March 2014
This is not the best teen movie or even teen musical, but it is still worth a look (or listen, rather) due to its catchy and original music. It is a reminder of what the High School Musical franchise has done for teen musicals. However, while HSM's choreography was more naturalistic, this one's over-produced.

The draw for teen girls will almost certainly be the Jonas Brothers, who are surprisingly okay film actors. While they do not carry the film alone on their shoulders, they do inject the extra element of fun that will be missing if they weren't in it.

The acting was for the most part what is expected from a Disney teen pop movie - bubbly but without much needed from the actors. The draw is and always will be the music and the dancing. Unless you're a teen, you won't care much for the characters as they go through the usual teen 'crises'. The music is upbeat, the songs are original and catchy, and the dance choreography acceptable (although the guys seem to have all the good moves; the girls do little other than shake their heads, chests and hips), which is what are more important here anyway. I have a preteen god-daughter, and even she is more excited by the music and dancing than in the story.

It may not rank as high as High School Musical, but unless you're willing to watch that again, this is still a good enough movie for the kids to watch. Even if they don't appreciate the story, it may still bring out whatever musical instincts are in them.

This sequel is an entire waste of time
abalpn-9947210 August 2017
I haven't watched the first and second film but I've heard about the plot. They wanted to make it just like the High School Musical franchise. I don't like the Jonas Brothers because they think they're cool and all that. One of those brothers have a bad attitude. Taylor Swift dated one of them but I don't know who. I like Taylor Swift and I feel bad that she got dumped by a loser Jonas brother.

Anyway, the drama in this sequel was cheap and cheesy. I thought that it was the end of that but they're making the third installment. I said to myself, "Are they're really going to make the third film? You're kidding." Demi wanted to do this. They even wanted the film to be R-rated. I was like, "What?! R-rated?!" It will probably be in the next two years when it's going to be released. So the first and second were not good. They were just a waste of time and money.

final jam
SnoopyStyle16 September 2018
Everybody is back to camp. The girls are now friends. The Jonas Brothers bus falls into the water and they arrive with the chickens. Star Records owner Axel Turner has opened high intensity Camp Star opposite Camp Rock and stole most of their staff. The kids volunteer to be camp counsellors. Tess joins Camp Star as one of its leading performers. Mitchie accepts a challenge from Camp Star in a televised competition.

As a sequel to a moderately successful Disney movie, this does what it's supposed to do. It has a bigger villain. The performances are bigger. It's bigger but less. The only aspect I like is them being camp counsellors. That's the natural progression that this sequel should embrace from the start. Everybody including Tess could return as counsellors to a new crop of rugrats. Disney has plenty of them. Tess could be forced to go by her mother. I keep picturing Wet Hot American Summer. It would certainly be less raunchy but it could have been fun. This is not fun. This is far from fun. I don't understand the perceived danger from the competition. They're going on TV and it can't hurt. Win, lose, or draw. They get their faces on TV. The lack of danger takes away the stakes. The trick is for the losing camp to close up shop as part of the bet. It's good that this is the final jam.

Overral, one of the worst sequels ever made and deserving of contempt is Camp Rock 2.
eminkl18 October 2019
When it first came out in our view, Camp Rock tried to give "High School Musical" a run for its money. The movie was quite original and entertaining, sadly. The sequel, however, is trying to give a run for their money to "High School Musical," "You Get Served," and "Step Up." The plot of the movie is deeply affected by unoriginality. Despite toe-tapping tunes and acting all right, as it progresses, the movie spurs out cliches. The storyline involves the Camp Rockers engaging in a musical contest in which only one camp can succeed against Camp Star. We've seen all of this before! Some serious support is also required by the characters.How did Axel Turner do in the living hell not make his hideous daughter the star of all the plays of Camp Star? Why was Nick harassing the wife of Axel Turner? Why is Tess moving to the "dark side?" I want to meet Camp Star with that. Mitchie was clearly stupid and ego-centric. She just took care of herself and "protect" the closure camp. The music wasn't as great as the first, but it was still all right. It's how the characters erupted in song that really killed us. Recall how the characters will compose the song beforehand in the first film and then sing in front of the microphone? They don't burst into song like actors from Broadway in this one. We were annoyed by that!Overral, one of the worst sequels ever made and deserving of contempt is Camp Rock 2.

good movie ... shame about the voice
waterlooroad_fan24 November 2013
The story line was okay ... fairly predictable but over all the story was reasonably good. The only let down was Demi's voice for a main character in a film with singing in you would expect her to be able to sing ... i think the songs she had to sing were good but her voice let them down! The other singers were generally good and somewhat made up for the poor singing talent of Demi. It was quite funny and for a child they would enjoy it. Overall i would recommend watching it ... but only watching it once and don't expect it to be that great! i think this movie would have been better if it had just been left as a single movie rather than making a second one!

Review from years later
odie-630376 April 2020
This movie is easily a 10/10 back when it first came out, but now since it's only Disney plus all ya camp rock lovers can rewatch it. Now this movie is trash for many reasons... mitchie is so rude to Shane and all he is trying to do is make her happy but she can't get that through her head, Dana wants nate to just read her mind and open up to her automatically why can't she ask him questions if she wants to know all about him? And for poor jason dude gets no attention they made him the babysitter and he just chilled with Frankie the whole movie. We got left on a cliffhanger Tess came back we need to her the stories from camp star and all the drama cause we all know tess likes drama. We also need to know where Dana and nate stand same goes for mitchie and Shane are they strong enough to have a relationship? Well I guess we will never know since we don't have a camp rock 3!

Camp Rock Does It Again
jemanuel126 September 2010
First off, let me start by saying that I only started watching Disney channel when I had my first child 2 years ago and I have seen some of the cheesiest acting on that channel possible. Enter the rare ray of sunshine known as Demi Levato and all that changes. I tune in to watch Sonny with a Chance every week, with the kids of course, and I am always entertained by Demi. Same goes here. Needless to say, I think this was an amazing effort by Disney to put out a quality film for both kids and adults alike and coming from a musical and dance background myself,I was captivated by every moment. Bravo gang and hope to see you back for a third summer.

A Fun Nostalgic Watch with Cheesy Elements
aleksczernecki24 February 2023
On the positive side, "Camp Rock 2" delivers on its promise of fun and catchy musical numbers, featuring talented young actors such as Demi Lovato, Jonas Brothers, and Alyson Stoner. The film also showcases the importance of teamwork, friendship, and pursuing your dreams, making it an inspiring watch for kids and teens.

However, as an adult looking back at the movie, it's hard to ignore the cheesiness and cringiness of some scenes and dialogue. The plot is predictable, the characters are one-dimensional, and the acting can feel forced at times. Additionally, some of the songs and dance sequences can come across as overly rehearsed and manufactured, lacking the spontaneity and energy of a live performance.

Overall, "Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam" is a fun nostalgic watch for those who grew up with the original movie and enjoy musical comedies. However, it may not hold up as well for adult viewers who are less forgiving of its cheesy and predictable elements.

Not quite
andreaborup4 August 2013
Well it was cute, sure... But it was like they were doing a mix of High School Musical and the first Camp Rock... That was all I could think of the entire time. What happen?

The first Camp Rock was great, I really enjoyed it, because it was like real life, it wasn't full of song and dance routines... This they made a big time musical. Everything was group singing. She starts the song and everyone joins in. Doing all the motions and singing right along with her. Not quite what I was expecting after the first one.

I am but a teenager, so maybe it is attractive to younger kids, but it wasn't so much to me...

Clearly a publicity stunt
christiancard-134516 June 2022
This entire film was a publicity stunt for Disney, and especially for Demi and the J Bros. Like we get it, Demi and Joe are a cute couple but that doesn't mean that Disney needs to make an entire film about it. Seriously, this whole film is just a ploy to advertise Demi and Joe's celebrity relationship. Pathetic. I love Demi Lovato and the Jonas Brothers, but man was this film a disappointment. The only song I actually like in this film is Wouldn't Change A Thing, that song was incredible, but everything else, utter trash. In fact, it seems that most of Disney Channel's events in 2010 were about advertising Joe and Demi's relationship, i.e. That ridiculous Jonas Brothers christmas special on Sonny with a Chance.

They can't sing
kathrynblair-1439430 June 2019
The main singer at camp star cannot sing even one note it's really stupid to have the kids asking at the end of the movie if they can come to camp rock next summer but then not have camp rock 3 Final jam made no sense because they had people voting after the first song was sung instead of waiting until both songs were sung Camp rock final jam song was way better than camp stars so camp Star winning was stupid and bad acting
