First, the disclaimers:
1) we forget we even have the Disney channel
2) this is not the type of movie we watch at all
3) I would never willingly watch a musical
4) I don't think I've ever watched one of these sing/dance movies in my 64 years in my (granted, old) memory.
5) although the title implied it was from a series, we didn't know anything about that
We were tempted by the description tagline "spooky, playful and endearing" for a Zombie movie.
An animated beginning, we were tempted to turn it off, but then it became "real".
A couple minutes in, I turned to my husband & said.
"Omg, I think she's going to start singing"
About 1/2 in, I said,
"It's like I can't stop watching with some kind of horrified interest."
It's really sweet. We really liked it.
I can see why young people are so into singing the songs and doing the tik tok video dance sketches.
The plot was good, no holes.
Mainly it gives me hope. It's nice to see that kids are learning about the better side of human nature in this uncertain world. That's probably what I liked best about it.
Otherwise, I still don't like musicals. LOL
My husband REALLY liked it though, & scored it exceptionally higher than his usual scores. So it must be pretty good.
