Summary: HIGH OR LOW
Review: ok all i can say is you either love this film or you hate it. personally i thought the acting was weak but the vocals were amazing and for that alone you can watch this movie over and over again. there is also an adoreable tap number that a 7 year old boys does that just makes you want to go out and learn this talent. but once again it's either a love or hate thing personally i love it

Summary: I wish I could rate - 100 stars
Review: There are no words to describe how awful this movie was. Yes, the songs and the voices of the actors were fantastic, however the acting was atrocious. I think half of the problem was the writing. The script had no realistic feel to it at all. I found myself laughing histerically at the things the actors said, but it wasn't meant to be funny; I found the things they said unrealistic and funny to the point where I would rewind and watch them say it again. Also, part of the reason there were no good actors in this film, is because I think it is such a rarity to find a young person with amazing vocal talents, as well as a good actor. Overall, I think this movie, was awful, and had NO powerful feel to it whatsoever.

Summary: Well, "stupid" is accurate...
Review: I watched this movie with a few friends. One said "stupid, but fun." The other said, "well, stupid..." Seriously, I don't think I've seen a worse movie in several years. The writing is awful, and the acting is offensive. The creators of this film had an interesting opportunity to make fun of "campy" movies and completely blew it. Do I know how this film could have been made better? No, but I'm not a filmmaker. These people are. Learn how to do your jobs.Normally I also review the DVD's special features, but please don't make me watch them!

Summary: Do you wanna come out?
Review: This movie would get three stars from me just for its portrayal of Vlad's (Daniel Letterle) mostly nude body dripping wet in one of the concluding scenes. (Sorry, but it's true!) It earns the fourth star by being the most unabashedly fun movie I have seen in years. The casting in this movie is right on, and the ensemble cast has a phenomenal chemistry; they look like they are having the time of their lives. Theatre jokes abound, but they are sufficiently explained so as not to alienate the dramatically uncultured. Unfortunately, the movie -- despite valiant efforts to pull off a brilliant theme -- ultimately fails. It's hard to explain precisely why. The central song of "Camp" is about living life in spite of failure, and is about the most catchy thing this side of Abba: "Hey, do you wanna come out / and play the game? / It's never too late." But in the end, every attempt the movie makes to tap into real emotion is undermined by a fundamental confusion about who we are, as human beings. "Camp" portrays adolescence as a wasteland -- and this reviewer, for one, finds that interpretation both simplistic and untrue. In other words, the message is, "It's never too late to come out and play the game -- but trust me, you will lose." In other words, this is the same old Holden-Caulfield "life-is-not-worth-but-what-the-hell" adolescent depiction, with some brilliant songs, some beautiful bodies, and some very gay teenagers thrown in. But then again, who am I kidding? What's not to like?

Summary: Camp
Review: Camp was a surprisingly entertaining film. The kids have wonderful voices and are very talented! This movie is not for everyone but if you have ever performed or been involved in a stage production you will enjoy it. The musical numbers are great. I wish there had been more of them. The (...) theme is overdone and not really necessary to most of the story. The characters seem real and we all know people like them. It's easy to get to know them and what makes them tick. Fritzi was my favorite character. The film is obviously low budget but despite that it drew me in with some great characters and musical numbers!

Summary: Fritzi... and some other people.
Review: I saw this movie for the first time two days ago, and I honestly don't know what to rate it. The thing is, I couldn't give it five stars in good conscience, seeing as it's quite possibly one of the worst movies I've ever seen. But at the same time, I can't very well give a really low score to a movie that I enjoyed this much. So I'm compromising with a three. Which is generous. This acting in this film was just disgusting. Sorry, but that's the way things are some times. I think they were all cast on their vocal merit, because all of them really can sing very well. But it's a movie for chrissake, and not even a movie musical in the strictest sense of the term. Get some acting ability. Man. Really. There was a lone holdout, however. The girl who played Fritzi was very good. She could actually act her way out of a paper bag, and she still had a superb voice. Happy medium, that's all I have to say. Also, the film quality cut in and out a lot. It was painfully obvious what parts had been filmed with different cameras. And that distracts a lot, for me anyway. All that aside, it was actually very enjoyable. You could laugh at it but you knew that somewhere deep down inside it was laughing at itself too, so it was alright. And it also unleashed an unknown passion for the name 'Vlad' in one of my friends, so there's a plus side to everything. I guess my biggest complaint is that Fritzi gets one of the lame credit shots where it's just a clip from the movie instead of her bursting forth from the curtain like the other characters. Because seriously, she was the best one. By a long shot. So, see it for Fritzi. If for nothing else, see it for Fritzi.

Summary: I fell in LOVE with this movie!!!
Review: When i rented this movie i thought it would be ok, but it wasn't, it was WONDERFUL! Not only is Daniel a very very hot actor but a wonderful one too. I was just thinking to my self,"If this guy is any thing like Vald i real life i would be all over him!I mean he's cute and can really act and not to mention that he also sings and can play gee-tar!" You could imagin by heart break when i found out he was getting married.:( But the movie, it was also very very wonderful alnog with the rest of the cast.This touching movie hit base with lots of things going on in my own life and it opened my eyes.Also if you loved this movie like i did you will love the Broadway show RENT and you must see it.I am so glad movie's are expanding their horizons by having subject matter that includes cross dressers & homosexuality, people need to understand and respect people that are differant from them selfs.Can you belive that Daniel is 24(or 23 i forget) at the time that they filmed the movie! Well i'm looking forward to seeing him in other productions that have as much meaning as CAMP does. (...). -Elissa

Summary: Music is what makes this movie special...
Review: Camp really isn't a great film; it is unintentionally awkward at inopportune moments in the movie. However, the one aspect of "Camp" that made it stick in my mind instead of drifting off like most movies I see do, was the music. In particular, two voices that drew me back to find about more about "Camp" were Sasha Allen and Tiffany Taylor. Allen's voice doesn't necessarily fit the atmosphere of the movie, but she is still an amazing singer and I couldn't help but take notice. Taylor's rendition of "Here's Where I Stand" made me cry for a movie for about the third time in my life because of how much emotion is put into it. Taylor exudes the personality of a quasi-diva: she knows what her voice can do, but she knows when to restrain her vocals for maximum listener emotion. I expect to see great things from these amazing young women in the future.

Summary: Crap
Review: Camp takes a horrible look at young actors with a complete misconception: not all actors who attend drama camp are gay! There were a couple of funny parts but overall, this movie was junk. More than that, it was an insult. Funny how a movie about drama could have such bad acting. Hugely forgettable. Don't waste your time. I'm sorry I did.
