Zack & Cody - Der Film

I love The Suite Life With Zack And Cody and On Deck, but this movie was a failure in my opinion. The story was weak, the writing was sloppy, and I didn't laugh once in the entire film. It doesn't even feel like a movie based on the show, it feels like it would belong in another movie that isn't The Suite Life shows. Don't watch this movie, it's not worth watching.

Zack and Cody are given the opportunity to participate in the prestigious Gemini Project, a research center that studies the dynamism between twins. When they realize it, they realize they are connected in a way never seen before: when one feels any sensation, or thinks about something, the other will go through the same. While this newfound power helps the boys discover themselves, it also puts them in great danger.

Boring movie, what an unbearable brother, with a brother like that you don't even need an enemy, wow, that doesn't even sound fun, and the caricatured friends, the chubby glutton, the dumb blonde and the oriental madam, all very unpleasant, with irresponsible young people, who the gentle ones are stupid, Eww, the film advances along a nebulous path of science fiction that unification of the twins (?!?!) not profitable, maybe for the young people of the time and for those who enjoyed the series, just... Boring...

I know that some people dislike the science fiction direction this movie took the franchise in and I do understand that complaint. Though for the record Suite Life was never purely slice of life. There was an episode of Zack and Cody wherein Arwin's machine created a portal to a parallel universe and it's then implied to have been a dream only for the ending to reveal that it was real (admittedly as a joke.) And an episode devoted to Arwin creating a robot version of himself named Arwinstein. Another one where London actually got Bigfoot on Yay Me starring London Tipton and interviewed him about his book. While the episode about a shooting star turning Zack and Cody into superheroes was revealed as a dream, Raven Baxter and her premonitions were treated as entirely real.

Even Suite Life on Deck included Bailey being possessed by a ghost, Galapagos Gurdy being real and a smoothie bringing a plant to life and turning it to a monster. (And possibly a magic genie lamp. Not to mention an alternate universe created by a birthday wish.

I know it was generally more slice of life than that and I don't blame people who wished the movie were as well but I'm completely fine with it.

Without getting into spoilers, I like how Dr. Olsen and Dr. Spaulding are used as a foil for Zack and Cody. I think the mad scientist was a well-done villain. I liked the attention it paid to Cody and Bailey's relationship. While the humour in the early parts of the movie was hit or miss (the actors were clearly unaccustomed to performing without a laugh track) it gets significantly better since then. And while the dolphins backstory for the phlebotinum could hardly have been more contrived, the comedy it provided with London was quite entertaining.

I do think that Mr. Moseby, Woody and to a lesser extent London were severely underused characters within this movie but that flaw isn't enough to ruin the movie for me. Not even close.

It's a decent film.

Once the Sprouse twins are free from their Magic Kingdom contracts that might consider doing an adaption of The Corsican Brothers. Although I certainly would have a problem in seeing these two All American kids as swashbuckling 18th century Corsicans.

After two successful television series for Disney, the Sprouse Twins are getting ready to end it soon when they graduate from their floating high school. They got their television film from Disney, The Suite Life Movie where all the characters from The Suite Life On Deck make their appearances in support.

Without going into detail the Zack And Cody Martin get hoodwinked into a mad scientist's experiment on twins. Of course having the mad scientist who also has a twin played by John Ducey who was most recently the father of the Jonas Brothers in that Magic Kingdom TV Series was a bit much, but then again we're not supposed to take all this seriously.

Mad scientist Ducey is experimenting with twins with the idea of having them do more than look alike. If you remember the Corsican Brothers the Franchi twins were Siamese and while they did get separated almost at birth, they did share certain experiences even though they were brought up a few hundred miles away.

But the overachieving Cody and the underachieving Zack are now having experiences like the Franchis and it takes the whole cast of the regular TV series to rescue them. The film is all right, not to be taken too seriously, and should please Sprouse fans everywhere.

"The Suite Life Movie" is a Disney Channel Original Movie that serves as a conclusion to the popular "Suite Life" franchise. The film follows Zack and Cody (Dylan and Cole Sprouse) as they embark on a new adventure, traveling to a remote island to participate in a scientific research project.

One of the strengths of the movie is its cast. Dylan and Cole Sprouse once again deliver strong performances as Zack and Cody, showcasing their characters' growth and maturity since the end of the television series. The supporting cast, including Brenda Song, Debby Ryan, and Matthew Timmons, also return and deliver solid performances.

The film's production value is also noteworthy. The tropical island setting provides a beautiful backdrop for the story, and the special effects are impressive and add to the overall excitement and wonder of the movie.

The themes of the movie, which include the importance of family, friendship, and responsibility, are also noteworthy. The story delivers these messages in a way that is accessible and relatable to younger viewers, while also providing entertainment for older audiences.

Overall, "The Suite Life Movie" is a fun and exciting adventure that will appeal to fans of the "Suite Life" franchise and newcomers alike. Its strong cast, impressive production value, and positive message make it a must-watch for anyone who loves a good family-friendly movie. Whether you're a fan of the television series or just looking for a fun and heartwarming story, this movie is sure to keep you entertained from beginning to end.
