Entry # One.

Mitchie Torres (Demi Lovato) is a teenage girl who hopes to be a singer when she grows up. Her father, Steve owns a hardware store and her mom, Connie (Maria Canals Barerra) runs a catering business. Mitchie dreams about going to Camp Rock but her parents can't afford to send her there. However, Mitchie's mother gets the job of catering food at Camp Rock which allows Mitchie to go there at a discounted rate if she helps out in the kitchen. Mitchie is initially excited to arrive at Camp Rock but when she meets Tess Tyler (Meaghan Jette Martin) the diva of Camp Rock, she feels ashamed of the fact that her mother is the camp cook. On a spur of the moment decision, she blurts out that her mother is the president of Hot Tunes TV, China. Tess and her two best friends, Ella (Anna Maria Perez De Tagle) and Peggy (Jasmine Richards) are impressed and invite Mitchie to share their cabin. Excited by the thought of being popular, Mitchie abandons her first friend at Camp Rock, Caitlyn (Alyson Stoner) and even agrees to be a backup singer instead of singing solo for Final Jam.
On the other hand, spoilt rock star, Shane Gray (Joe Jonas) has been sent to be an instructor at Camp Rock by his band-mates, Nate (Nick Jonas) and Jason (Kevin Jonas). They believe that all the fame has gone to Shane's head and he needs some time to clean up his act. Shane is initially disgruntled by this decision but when he hears Mitchie singing in the mess hall, it reminds him of the kind of music that he liked. However, he doesn't know who the identity of the voice is and he spends most of his time trying to find out who the mystery singer is.
Shane and Mitchie gradually become good friends but Shane doesn't know that Mitchie is the singer that he's been looking for. Caitlyn discovers the fact that Mitchie has been lying about her mom's profession but being the good friend that she is, she doesn't tell anyone. Unfortunately, Tess is jealous of Mitchie's talent and the fact that Shane seems to be falling for her and she starts to spy on her. What will happen when Tess sees Mitchie coming out of the kitchen, hugging the cook goodbye and calling her "Mom?" More importantly, how will Shane react when he finds out that Mitchie has been lying to him and everyone else all summer? Will Mitchie still be able to sing in Final Jam after Tess plays a crafty trick to have her and Caitlyn disqualified? Who will win the Final Jam and get the opportunity to record a song with Shane Gray? And will Shane ever find out that Mitchie is the girl he heard singing in the mess hall at the first day of camp?
Demi Lovato does a fine job in her first movie as Mitchie and Joe Jonas throws his heart and soul into his character. Alyson Stoner does justice to her role and Meaghan Martin is perfect as the mean girl of camp. Kevin and Nick Jonas shine in their minor but essential roles as Shane's band-mates.
The music of the movie is outstanding. The best songs of the film are easily 'This Is Me' which is a duet by Demi Lovato and Joe Jonas and Gotta Find You, a soulful and poetic song by Joe Jonas. 'Play My Music' is a fast, upbeat track which has the classic Jonas Brothers touch to it. 'Who Will I Be' is a rocking and energetic song by Demi Lovato and the rest of the songs are extremely well-written and definitely have potential to be listened to over and over again.

Entry # Two.

I honestly must say that I waited nights for this movie to priemere, because the advertisements had a very good effect on me. They made me want to see the movie really badly, and when it did priemere, I wasn't dissapointed. But later, I started actually thinking about the movie, and it's pros and cons. Mitchie Torres, the main character of the film, is a young teenage girl with dreams to make it big in the music world. She is psyched that she can go to Camp Rock under the condition that her mother be the cook, and that she helps out in between classes. Intimidated by the rich snob kids at camp, Mitchie lies about who she is.
Shane, the male protagonist of the film, is a stuck up pop star who would rather be anywhere else than Camp Rock at first. This part is pretty good, and you can immediately tell that there's going to be a love story involved. Eventually, Shane finds out that Mitchie lied about who she is all along, but then forgives her on stage when he realizes that she's the girl with the voice he was looking for. I mean, I can sort of understand that, but either Shane has an extremely soft heart, or Mitchie has a dazzling effect on him. If I was in his place, I must say that even is she was the "girl," I wouldn't be able to forgive her so easily. I'm definitely not saying that the movie's bad, I loved it and still do! But I felt that at the end, they rushed it a bit and added unnessary scenes. In the pop up version of Camp Rock that aired on Disney Channel, it was mentioned that there was going to be a scene with Tess and her mother, but they deleted it for a romantic scene. That was definitely uncalled for, because the Tess scene would have been heart-melting and sad to see, and it would have added an affect to the movie that barely and Disney Channel movies have. Plus, when Mitchie lied about her mother, it made me feel like she was embarassed of her mother's job and that she was embarassed of her mother herself. I didn't like that point, which is why I didn't take such a favorable turn to Mitchie. But also, I understand....Mitchie had problems in school, and that could have caused her the want to be popular. So she was right and wrong in a way, but I could truly understand....

That's the only negative I have to say, but other wise, Camp Rock was a completely original and interesting movie. I recommend it for all those who haven't seen it yet. Especially for those who are Jonas Brothers, Demi Lovato, Alyson Stoner, Anna Marie Perez De Tagle, and Jasmine Richard fans... It's not perfect, but no movie can be...right?



HAPPY VOTING.
TAKE CARE & ENJOY! 🤗
