A Semana da Minha Vida

I quess it says all. (But I can't save reviews this short so..)

For a few minutes I thought the main character was Zac Efron. To make it more like HSM there was a somtemies naughty blonde boy and the afroamerican best buddy of the main character. It takes place in the Camp Rock with a strong christian atmsophere and no rival camp.

To sum up it was an okay teenager movie with catchy music, so I give 7/10.

What happens when you mix Camp Rock, High school musical with a little religion? A dramatic musical film for Christian teens.

It is about a rebellious boy who has the option of going to a camp or ending up in the reformatory.

Quality.

The songs although generic some others are interesting.

Not all performances are at the level.

At times the story can feel a bit lazy and meaningless, it falls into all the hackneyed camp movie stuff as well as teenage characters. You can even feel a romantic comedy.

The message he gives is clear: be yourself and give love. It is the basis of the film, in the end without love the world cannot.

About opportunities in life and trusting God.

It raises interesting questions about God and life, but many of them are not fully answered.

If you ever went to a religious camp, this movie will make you feel identified.

Sunday.

It is nice and refreshing for Netflix to drop a feel-good Christian movie on their streaming platform. Although the movie was predictable and some scenes and musical numbers a bit cringe-worthy, the overall message was about acceptance and God understanding people's struggles in life which was relatable to watch.

Will hit rock bottom when he had the choice to either go to camp or to.youth detention center. There he found friendship, love and God and family. When he first got to camp he didn't want to be there but the longer he was there the more he actually liked it. This movie might be a little cheesy but it's better than the 1 star ratings some are giving it.

This is Camp Rock for the church crowd with a dash of High School Musical sprinkled in (the two leads will remind you of Troy and Gabriella). You'll especially love the movie if you were into Christian music in the late 80's and 90's (there are even a couple of artist cameos for you).

I am a Christian, but my eyes get sore watching Christian movies because I'm rolling them so hard. They're very typically over-earnest, heavy-handed, and usually far-right in sentiment. One Week Away is none of these things, and if you like Camp Rock you'll enjoy this movie too, whether you appreciate the churchy message or not. The themes are universal: love, redemption, belonging, and the characters play through the themes without being schlocky - or at least more schlocky than any teen musical. I like that Will asks the hard questions that Christians are often afraid to ask, and there's no ready answer for him.

There are many things to criticize - the acting is at times uneven and the music isn't for everyone (although the showstopper is the Awesome God/God Only Knows mashup - brilliant performance), but the movie was short and fun and a very pleasant trip down memory lane for me. Worth watching, and worth watching with the kids.
