For some reason it has the feel of a first-time film maker got lucky. Add to this the plugging of Josh Henderson's debut album and it almost becomes the sort of film where a talented student with a camera just wants to show off. It's strange to compare a film with such known actors to the unknowns of the first high school musical, but you could easily imagine the lead characters as Troy and Gabriella.
Getting past the amateur feel the film is likable if not very memorable. The spin of "boy meets girl, boy hates girl" has scope for originality but by halfway through this is just another regular chick flick. This in itself is not a bad thing and Henderson and Dewan play a convincing and believable performance.
It's certainly worth watching but don't expect to be blown away.
