What Parents Need to Know
About High School Musical 2
Parents need to know that although this energy-packed sequel to the wildly popular High School Musical presents a fairly sanitized view of teen life -- wrongs are righted in the end, all parties walk away friends, etc. -- it also has plenty of positive messages about being true to yourself, following your own path in life, and valuing true friendship. Staying true to its squeaky-clean predecessor, the sequel spends more time on music than on making out (in fact, the only kisses come at the end and are very sweet), and there's really nothing here that's likely to concern parents of tweens.

It was cute, but I hated how at the end of HSM1 Sharpay got along with everyone, and by the time this one came, she was enemies with them again. That didn't work out. But this movie was funny.

From Good To The Worst
I used to be obsessed over High School Musical, until everybody became obsessed. They're now driving me crazy: everywhere I look, HSM adverts, T-shirts, backpacks... whatever. Very young children (5-6 years)are simply obsessed with this movie because everybody they know is too. I know children who haven't even seen the movie, and they love it! Plus the movies are too corny and lame.

Good Movie!
If this movie is not for young kids then who is it for. I am very strict with what my son watches and I like this movie. There is one kiss in the whole movie and there is no real sexual content because all of the relationships are very innocent. The story line is basic and probably a little boring to the teens. I took my son to see Madagascar because it was a cartoon and regretted it for adult jokes but even though this movie is real kids it has none of that.

Worst Movie Ever!!
Ok, first of all I didn't want to see this weird movie anyway, but I was forced too.I was at summer camp and they made every camper watch it!It was the worst time of my life! The first one was horrible but this one was worse. They made a third one and I have two choices,do not see it ever or go to see it and make fun of it. Don't waste your time watching this movie.
