Teen Beach 2

I've never seen teen beach 1, but I was thoroughly entertained by this movie. It was not what I was expecting at all. I thought it was smart and funny, and at times a little cheesy. I've had the last song stuck in my head all day. I was laughing out loud at the '60s scenes. Maia Mitchell is a babe, and Ross Lynch seems like a really likable, talented guy.

I was expecting a sappy love story, but i was pleasantly surprised by the story line. Tanner, in the commercials, had me rolling my eyes because I didn't know he was supposed to be from the 60s, but his character was actually really funny, I loved the obliviousness and the intentional overacting in the 60s scenes. I loved the last song and I could watch Maia Mitchell dance to it all day.

Summer is over. Mack (Maia Mitchell) decides to stay at her high school with Brady (Ross Lynch). Their friends don't get their relationship with their differences. Brady gets jealous. Movie characters, Lela (Gracie Gillam) and Tanner (Garrett Clayton), suddenly show up in the real world.

The idea may be to do the reverse of the first movie, but they still are doing a high school musical. They could have made Lela and Tanner get acclimated with different styles of music. I get the easier move is continuing the high school musical style of movies. It would be so much more daring to go outside the box, but that's never going to happen.

Teen beach movie was amazing when it came out, personally I loved it. Teen beach 2 had potential. But then they had to really mess up the ending. The music was not as good in this one or the plot, which was a bit disapointing, I will never forgive them for how they ended the movie. Ever.

Liked the song 'on my own' it was very good the rest however... I have not seen because I hav something called dignity ;)

It's really not as bad as everybody thinks. It still has that same goofy sweet vibe that the original one was famous for but it starts to also turn the characters into multidimensional people with lives outside of surfing. Probably the weirdest thing though was when they return to their normal lives and it's so believable that you can't believe you didn't see how badly matched they were for each other from the beginning. But somehow those two crazy kids are made for each other.

There are a few songs in this one too and I still found myself taping along to the numbers even if they weren't as catchy. It may not have been as good as the first one but it wasn't a bad way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
