Rating: Summary: A great movie, and why! Review: What's a kid's greatest dream? A summer of all play and no work, lot's of evenly-mixed friends, and plenty of money to to burn... In Camp Nowhere, this actually comes true. A geeky kid called Mud, along with three other friends (two girls and another boy, by the way), gets his hands on megabucks, hires Dennis, a funny ex-drama teacher, actor, and often saviour, and rents out a camping spot complete with cabins, lake... The ex-hippie Dennis fools all four pairs of parents into sending their kids to four different "camps" (military, computer, weight-loss, and drama) but actually in one: Camp Nowhere. But soon, their orginally intended number of four turns to the dozens, as a loud-mouthed kid trumpets to the entire youth. Soon their fun is in full swing: everything from water-guns to a 61" TV is theirs. Not to mention sweet puppy love... But trouble arises as most of the parents declare they're coming to visit for Parent's Day! So, as Mud says, they begin to pull off the greatest scam of all time... Unlike many other movies, every instant and adventure in fun and engaging. A really fun and enjoyable movie, especially during summer vacation. (I saw it on a government station, so some parts might have been censored, though highly unlikely...)
Rating: Summary: What every kid wants in a summer! Review: When this movie first came onto video i watched over and over again, which at $6 per night hire rate can get very expensive. It was worth it though. Now i am well and truly past the age whereby one can still watch kid's movies, but whenever i have family and friends visiting with kids i make sure i hire it again. its such a great movie. in australia we don't really have summer camps, so its even more exciting to watch for us, that and Nathan Caveleri is in it too (aussie guitarist that survived cancer at a young age).
