Ok I will confess right up front, I have not seen the entire movie. I have however seen about 5 minutes from reel 2 and DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMNNNN do those kids have one mega kickin' jam box! The entire theater was just shaking and the air was pounding me in the chest...all from a tiny 4 inch pair of speakers. [Razz]

Oh yeah, from what I saw, I would estimate that my review (if I was to ever suffer through this film) would be about a 1-2 out of 5.

It's all about the acoustics... [Big Grin]

I knew this guy in high school who practiced the viola in the bathroom. [eyes]

It's not the size of the instrument, it's what you do with it in the bathroom.

JP has a good point, why do you think everyone sings in the shower?

As for the movie, not bad. I was expecting it to be bad.

I was watching the trailer awhile back and I noticed one of the student characters was the guy from the movie Hook(1991) who played Rufio (Dante Basco)... Anyways, the guy is like 30 now and he's playing someone in (I'm assuming from the trailer) high school. He looks 16 in the trailer... I kid you not... Either he found the fountain of youth, is a man child, or plastic surgery... that is just scary. [Eek!]

His family is just like the Baldwins... three other brothers who are actors as well.
