Admirable film.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Honestly, the best DCOM since very long time. It has everything.. comedy, romance, music. All the qualities that make a movie a perfect one for me.I love how Disney movies are all sweat and really descent for kids and teens. I always love to watch them. Camp Rock movies are great too.This one has really some amazing songs. They were very heartwarming too.Sterling Knight is such a rising star. I adore him very much. He is quite talented. I esp. love him in SWAC.Danielle Campbell is a very pretty actress. She played her role well witch I guess was not easy for a girl her age.Overall, this movie was a real pleasure to watch. I really really wish they make a 2nd one.

*moderate spoilers, maybe* I just finished watching this movie, and I have to say... as a Michigan teenager myself, I'm kind of offended that they think this portrayal of a Michigan (which, by the way, is NOT pronounced "Mich-uh-gun" by locals; I can guarantee that I know nobody who says it like this) teen is realistic. The girl's a complete diva! Her mannerisms are nothing like those of anyone you would meet here. I promise you, we're not all dimwitted snobs who speak with a bitchy demeanor. Not that I'm denying that Michigan has some snooty people. Trust me, I have met some. But NONE of them are to this degree.The actual movie itself is on par with the rest of the recent ones: BAD. They make me long for the days of actually GOOD Disney Channel Original Movies. Granted, none of them are spectacular examples of acting, but at least the earlier ones had a decent amount of taste and some sense of morality. Here, the girl acts like a completely HORRIBLE person for the duration of the movie, and she STILL gets what she wants. (Even when she's defending him, her tone still reeks of diva.) What kind of message is that supposed to send? "Be a bitch, it'll get you far in life"? I definitely recommend that you stick to good old Disney movies, like the animated features of the 90s and earlier, or anything Pixar. Movies like this one honestly make me lose a little of my faith in humanity. If this is what teenage girls have come to, I'm ashamed to be forced to include myself in that category.One star out of 10.P.S. If you do visit Michigan, PLEASE do not let this piece of fail ruin your impression of us. We are, on the whole, a generally nice and friendly group of people. I can guarantee you that none of us will treat you as terribly as the "Michigan" teens in this film treat each other.

I have to say that I do like the plot of this movie. I thought it was different, it certainly isn't something I've seen before. However, This is clearly a made for TV kids movie. The script is cheesy (normal for Disney, though) and poorly directed. They just don't make it seem real. That seems to be one of Disney's biggest problems lately, they make these movies that are supposed to be inspirational or lesson learning for kids, but they're too unrealistic. This follows suit in the Disney portfolio.I think it's worth watching once or twice but it's no masterpiece. If you like Disney, you'll like Starstruck. Even if you don't like Disney, you might find it mildly enjoyable.

As an adult who has to watch Disney movies because of kids and frankly does not enjoy a lot of what is now I TV I kind of look forward to new Disney movies. Understanding I am not the prime audience I take them with a grain of salt.Saying that I have to say Aimless in KY's review was right on for this movie. Like a lot of DCOM movies it is has some good points but usually has some holes in the plot lines and the scenarios and dialogue could be tightened. Usually it can be overlooked but not so much in this one. I was actually expecting more because I think Chelsea Staub and Sterling Knight are two of the best actors in the Disney stable. Ms. Staub's role was very minor for the story and any body could have played it. In fact I think it would have been a great movie if she had played the female lead opposite Sterling Knight's character. Mr. Knight was great in the movie and carried it on his shoulders.As an aside, while adult roles are usually not pivotal in DCOM's but they are usually solid with pretty good acting. In this movie the roles were wooden and the acting as well.In summary while not a bad movie there will be no Starstuck II. Like a lot of DCOM's you think it could have been so much better without much effort at all. Hopefully DC will give Mr. Knight a movie commiserate with his talents.
