Camp Cool Kids

Cute, but super duper religious. Oops. I wish there was an evangelical warning on movies like this. Caution: May contain religious messages. This stuff matters when raising an 8yo who has no idea there are cults of magic sky man people trying to convert kids. Most of it went over her head, so far.

Wholesome elementary & teen camp movie. Most camp movies are either extremely crude, sexual, or lame. This one is actually pretty realistic, except for the obviously inadequate counselor-to-camper ratio, which leads to the bullying and pranking. Watched it with my kids. I grew up going to various camps. The counselors are pretty spot on (the over-hyped adventure guy, the laid-back hippie, the cool encouraging head-counselor). Good messages about faith, confidence, being a good brother, and being a good friend. It's nice not having to explain/mute/or clarify anything to my 9 and 6 year old.

Wow, what a great movie. While watching this fantastic movie I was just overwhelmed with lovely emotions and feelings. Just kidding, this movie is ABSOLUTE GARBAGE. I just wasted an hour and a half of my life watching this joke. The actors practically ruined their career by "starring" in this "great" film.

Ok it dose have a good message stand up for yourself but the over use of trying to fit in with trends and fads of our generation and the acting isn't that bad it's a bad or terrible movie.

When I sat down to watch this 2017 movie "Camp Cool Kids" it was because my 9 year old son wanted to see it. So I sat down with him to watch this movie from director Lisa Arnold without knowing anything about it.

Turns out that the movie was actually watchable and entertaining enough for what it turned out to be. And it is a movie that appeals to both youngsters and adults alike.

Now, when you sit down to watch "Camp Cool Kids", forget about all things realistic, as that is not present in the movie. The kids are literally without supervision 95% of the time while they were at the camp.

But the storyline is good and nicely paced, and it has something to offer to both young and adults in the audience, which is definitely a nice accomplishment.

The acting in the movie was good, although I had hoped to see a bit more of Michael Gross, I think he wasn't given enough screen time and could have spruced up the movie quite a bit more.

All in all, a watchable and entertaining enough movie. I am rating it a five out of ten stars, because it is not an outstanding movie, nor is it probable that you'll watch the movie more than just once - as it doesn't have enough contents to it to support more than a single viewing.
