This weekend I have had tons of fun with the girls. Friday night, we went ice skating with some friends and had a ball. By the end of the night, both Abbey and Mallory were skating on their own. Kimrie was skating all over the place. So last night we went to see High School Musical 3. I was mentally blogging the whole time, so I will share with you my review. First, I'll tell you what I liked, then I'll add what I didn't like. I suspect the lists might be a bit lopsided.
First of all, I really liked it. I thought it was really good, and puts Grease to shame. I never liked that movie. The opening scene was great, a big huge number. The whole story was very entertaining, and fun. Mallory and Abbey especially giggled and squealed the whole time. They absolutely loved it. Kimrie liked it in a very patronizing way. Not much emotion there. She's lucky, she'll be so aloof to boys in high school.
Now what I didn't like... by character:
Gabriella: I actually like her character, smart and innocent. As a mom of girls, that's a good combo for my kids to see. But she has a terrible singing voice. I'm no singer but she sounds like she is being strangled. It is truly cringeworthy. They should have just had her lip synch. Not too bad of a review for Gabriella/
Troy- Good heavens the drama with him. All my swim mom friends were gushing about how hot he was in this movie. I promtly called them all perverts and went on my way. My opinion, has not changed, he is a pipsqueak! And tell me why in every movie he has to have a mental breakdown, scream and dance and then pull out his hair?! If you ask me, he's mentally unstable and I wouldn't want my daughter dating that mess. And let me just say, when I'm on the verge of a breakdown at 2 am, I do NOT drive to the nearest high school to dance and scream around the empty building. Creeptastic.
Chad- Troy's friend, not much to say, all I can see is that curly mop. Seems like a good kid
Ryan- (Sharpay's brother) I'm so happy he got a good ending to the movie. The poor kid is so hideous and never catches a break.
Sharpay- Where to begin? You'd think they could afford a good color on her, since she's supposed to be the fashion queen. Her roots were dark brown, then we had a brassy orange, and her horribly obvious extensions were platinum blonde. Her terrible hair was the only thing I could see the whole movie.
All the other characters were too boring to post anything mean about.
All in all, a good movie, although I do get so embarrased for them when they break into song, it's just so awkward! Especially when Gabriella sings.
Oh Yah!! I forgot the most annoying thing... Gabriella calling Troy "wildcat" Gross!! Maybe I should start calling Jim "falcon"!
Actually after my scathing review, I would recommend it, it's fun and if you go in with a really negative attitude like me, it could be even more fun!

Inger, I am laughing so hard!!! I'm sure we'll see it sometime, but we RARELY go to the movies. We're a DVD family! Thanks for the review! "falcon" - HILARIOUS!
I haven't seen any of the HSM movies...so I have no idea who you are talking about...but I have one thing to say...You don't like Grease? What is wrong with you?!
I'll have to reconsider our friendship :)
Love ya!
Hey poophead! I can't read the review. I only get that wonderful poster from the ads. I can only hope that my children don't make me spend the 45$ it costs to take them to a movie, to go see this POS.
you are so funny! I agree with much of your review...but don't you think Chad just looked OLD? He almost had a 5 o'clock shadow throughout the entire film. He had just lost his "high school" look to me. So glad you had fun - definitely do more reviews my friend.
OK sorry for the poophead. Learned it from the kids. You are so fraking halarious!! The best part was the critique of the hairdo. Kimrie sounds a lot like Hannah. Boys are annoying pests. Thank goodness. Audrey on the other hand already thinks that the little boy up the road is handsome.
Inger, I left a new story on the humble pie blog...

Hey where do you find all these funny blogs. I was looking at the little people of London one, and laughing my head off. Hannah comes in the room and looks at the blog, looks at me, and says, "You just keep getting weirder!" Thank you very much Hannah for your input. This coming from a girl who laughs at 350 ways to get kicked out of Wal-Mart.
