Plots(1)
Troy (Zac Efron), the popular captain of the basketball team, and Gabriella (Vanessa Anne Hudgens), the brainy and beautiful member of the academic club, break all the rules of East High society when they secretly audition for the leads in the school's musical. As they reach for the stars and follow their dreams, everyone learns about acceptance, teamwork, and being yourself. (official distributor synopsis)

After ten minutes, I was going crazy with fear for my senses and yearned for a pomaded John Travolta with anything that would be less idiotic than the gang from East High. No one ever explained to them the difference between a relaxed atmosphere and an overly sweetened mess. But behold, there were moments of exaggeration, and despite their inability to act, the girls looked good and sang, which resonates with my huge weakness for cheesy pop hits. Eventually, I caught myself admitting that no one is a genius in high school and that everyone does stupid things and behaves just like the main characters – at least once in their life. And the feelings from the beginning turned around so much that I still happily listen to the soundtrack in specific moods to this day, and in my rating I have happily exceeded the usual three stars. Never say never.

A movie that’s accurately depicting the difference between the American and the European pop culture. What is celebrated and beloved in America can be despised and ridiculed in Europe.
