User reviews 47 Review. Top review. A naive feel good movie for teens The premise of this movie is not extraordinary. I say it's pretty common. The ingredients are: 1 a boy of the unpopular type who has a charisma understands music, although he doesn't seem to play an instrument moves to a new town because his mom got a new job 2 a single mom of the teenage boy 3 a girl of the cheerleader type who likes boy 1 4 another boy of the popular type this time who use to be the boyfriend of popular girl 3 and learns to hate boy 1 5 A public contest of some sort The Karate Kid!
This doesn't look or feels nothing like The Karate Kid despite my comparison! It's basically a teen dramedy. Young hopes. Young love.
It's enjoyable enough. It has music and some not very good teeny songs. It may attract the younger audience but this movie is far from deep or interesting. Pretty standard stuff really. If it's on TV or something, check it out. FAQ 3. Is "Bandslam" based on a book? Is Vanessa Hudgens' character named "Sam" or "Sa5m"? What song is playing when Will takes Sa5m around the city?
