Jump in!

Previews of HSM's Corbin Bleu jumping double dutch made us want to catch the replay broadcast of this Disney Original Movie. I never really thought that double dutch is a serious sport for some people. I have never even seen anyone jumping double dutch in real life where I live. The conflict of Corbin's character Izzy to be a boxer (as the dream of his ex-boxer dad) versus that of being a double dutch jumper (thought to be a sissy girls' sport) has been tackled in so many other youth fims, not the least of which was High School Musical itself. But the leads are very talented and engaging. And furthermore, I was very entertained by the music, dancing and jump rope skills displayed in this movie.

I really enjoyed sitting down and watching this movie. In my opinion the girl who played Karin did not act well. Her lines were over rehearsed and she showed no emotion. Keke palmer's acting was shaky but good. Corbin's was exceptionally well and so was his father. This movie was cool fun and nice to watch. I wished it was longer. I was amazed at how many African-Americans were in the movie. I loved who narrated the movie and how they showed us who it was in the end. I recommend you all to sit on the couch and watch this family-friendly, funny, and truly meaningful movie. It teaches good values and morals and the importance of solving things peacefully.

I thought the movie was a very good family movie. Corbin & Keke did a great job. The movie obviously worked around the "double dutch" but I would have liked to see a little more about Izzy's family situation. Kylee Russell as his little sister was a perfect match, because they could truly be siblings.

The interaction of the main characters was great. Keke and Corbin worked well together and the supporting characters were very enterataining. There appeared to be a lot of chemistry, which made the movie flow very naturally. I thought that Kylee Russell did a really good job. She seemed to have the right spunk as the little sister of a "cute and popular" big brother. I hope they do a sequel and spend a little more time with Izzy and Karin.

Overall I thought this was a really good Disney movie. Most of the people I talked to really enjoyed it. And thought it was just a nice movie to watch with the kids.

GOOD JOB Disney.

I watched this movie on Monday night and let me tell you, I thought it was great! I never knew that double-dutch is taken so seriously by some people. I think that Corbin Bleu did an excellent job playing Izzy in the movie. He is such a great actor and him doing all the gymnastic moves in the beginning was great! Some people may think that the movie was taken place in the "ghetto" but there was nothing ghetto about it. It's just a movie where a young teenage boy who is a boxer, wants to give it up because it's his fathers dreams. Not his. This movie shows that you can do anything if you put your mind to it. Don't let anyone stop you. Corbin and KeKe Palmer are great workers together. You can easily tell that they have great chemistry with one another. I believe that you guys would enjoy this movie. Only if you can understand the true meaning of double-dutch and how it's taken seriously about something. It's not just about jumping rope, but about putting your heart and soul into something you really want to do.

This is the only movie I've seen that practice Double Dutch, it's nice to see a different sport. I remember me watching this as a kid and jumping all day long with my siblings. It is a very entertaining movie for kids, and I'm sure young adults can resist it. The songs are good and the pacing works, it's not boring. Good message, the story is predictable, yes, but still fun to watch with kids.
