Prom (2011)

I (28) took my 2 daughter ages 9 and 4 to see this movie. Me and the 9 year old loved it. It didn't hold my 4 year old interest which completely understandable as its geared towards the tween-teen group. It had a great story line that was smart, current, but able to stay clean. :) It was about young relationships and the "Hype" that goes along with Prom. Its not a comedy, but there were a few funny parts. The actors chosen did a wonderful job. I am really glad there are some movies out there that me and my kids can enjoy together. Disney usually does a great job doing that and thats why I am proud to say we are a Disney family!!!

Fmovies: "Prom" is about a group of high school seniors who are preparing for their prom and the problems they encounter. The decorations are destroyed in an accident and class president Nova has to find a way to remake them in time. As punishment, notorious bad boy Jesse is forced to help her. There are two couples that have difficult decisions to make before prom and perpetually single Lloyd desperately tries to find a date. I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. It was of course very cliché and exaggerated, but that's to be expected with a Disney movie. It was actually quite funny and not at all childish like I went in thinking it would be. Some of the characters are juvenile, but not enough to be off- putting. I think this is a film that people of all ages can enjoy.

This movie, by Disney, is about as G rated as they come when dealing with teens. I mean most high school flicks have got someone smoking dope or being sluts or cussing all the time. But, none of that is in this movie. The only scandalous thing is a couple of kisses. This movie should have been about 6th graders instead of high school seniors. Any way the main story centers around the prom decorations being destroyed. So prom committee leader, Nova, has 3 weeks to make new decorations. She is partnered with bad boy, Jesse, whom must do this in order to graduate. So, of course, they are polar opposites, but end up liking each other at the end. Then some of their friends have problems, like who can I take to prom, and I'm going to go to college out of state. Such difficult problems.

FINAL VERDICT: 6th graders may like it, otherwise skip it.

Prom fmovies. I went to see this movie with my almost ten year old daughter. She LOVED it! I thought it was fun and clean...perfect for young girls. I am unhappy with the low IMDb score. (3.5 out of 10) Clearly, the people who are rating this film are not it's target audience. Our theater was full of tweens...even boys. I heard many of the boys talking to one another (we are so much like those two guys, etc.) The girls in the audience could relate to the girls in the movie. (My daughter would look at me at some parts with such a sweet smile on her face...part swoon, part thrilled by the romance. It was too cute!) This is NOT High School Musical...more mature, yet age appropriate. Like I said before, perfect for tweens! There were also many fathers taking their daughters...very sweet! Parents...(or Grandparents)...take your daughter...she will love it! It is the perfect "date" movie with your little girl! Have fun!

I will freely admit, I'm a sucker for trashy teen films, so obviously I enjoyed Prom. This is a Disney production so don't watch it expecting any of the antics you see in Glee or Skins, these kids are SQUEAKY CLEAN! Even the supposed rebel in the film us quite tame.

In saying that though it isn't extremely Disney either, if you didn't know it was Disney you wouldn't be able to tell. The acting isn't marvelous but a film like this doesn't call for tremendous acting, Aimee Teegarden is pretty enough to just ignore her acting. Also, the soundtrack was impressive.

Cliché yes, bad acting yes, cheesy yes, but hey, its not trying to be the next Mean Girls, so just take it for what it is. :)

It puzzles me as to the low rating for this film. Although painfully innocent, rude or even subtly rude gags completely left out, and remarkably cliché (almost all moments were predicted by people in the room while watching), PROM is a light-hearted, humorous and generally nice tale of the most important moment to teenagers about to leave school.

Most enjoyable was the acting of Lloyd, played by Nicholas Braun, and just how believable and funny the small story lines for him were. Perhaps the less cliché moments of the film were enjoyed by his character.

Overall, a nice, sweet film that would be most enjoyable to people around the age of the characters in the film.
