    Honestly not that bad

    I knew the second I watched the trailer that it wouldn't be a good movie. The quality, acting, and characters were all kinds of bad. But it was still cute and funny, and it had a happy ending. It was certainly enticing enough. It made me flip off a couple of characters for being sucky, so it can definitely keep your attention. Plus, the main guy Jesse was reeallllllllyyyyyyyyyyy cute. He was pretty much the main reason I watched. He reminded me of Flynn Rider. Anyways, this movie is good for curing boredom. If you like teen acting and happy-ending storylines, enjoy. It's a good pick-me-up.

    An innocent guilty pleasure! :)

    I will freely admit, I'm a sucker for trashy teen films, so obviously I enjoyed Prom. This is a Disney production so don't watch it expecting any of the antics you see in Glee or Skins, these kids are SQUEAKY CLEAN! Even the supposed rebel in the film us quite tame.

    In saying that though it isn't extremely Disney either, if you didn't know it was Disney you wouldn't be able to tell. The acting isn't marvelous but a film like this doesn't call for tremendous acting, Aimee Teegarden is pretty enough to just ignore her acting. Also, the soundtrack was impressive.

    Cliché yes, bad acting yes, cheesy yes, but hey, its not trying to be the next Mean Girls, so just take it for what it is. :)

    Innocent, funny, enjoyable, light-hearted: Prom

    It puzzles me as to the low rating for this film. Although painfully innocent, rude or even subtly rude gags completely left out, and remarkably cliché (almost all moments were predicted by people in the room while watching), PROM is a light-hearted, humorous and generally nice tale of the most important moment to teenagers about to leave school.

    Most enjoyable was the acting of Lloyd, played by Nicholas Braun, and just how believable and funny the small story lines for him were. Perhaps the less cliché moments of the film were enjoyed by his character.

    Overall, a nice, sweet film that would be most enjoyable to people around the age of the characters in the film.

    Good clean fun

    I (28) took my 2 daughter ages 9 and 4 to see this movie. Me and the 9 year old loved it. It didn't hold my 4 year old interest which completely understandable as its geared towards the tween-teen group. It had a great story line that was smart, current, but able to stay clean. :) It was about young relationships and the "Hype" that goes along with Prom. Its not a comedy, but there were a few funny parts. The actors chosen did a wonderful job. I am really glad there are some movies out there that me and my kids can enjoy together. Disney usually does a great job doing that and thats why I am proud to say we are a Disney family!!!

    good production value and time pass but story, dialogues and characterization is not worth it.

    PROM – TRASH IT ( C+ ) Prom is the dullest and inconsistent tween movie I've seen in recent times. The movie was supposed to be about prom and updated tween version but sadly it showcases the typical dilemma about prom with no consistency or regularity. The movie and its characters are all over the place. Scenes are badly edited and joint together so badly that even supposed funny scenes couldn't produce any laughs. The only thing made me go through this movie was Amee Teegarden and Thomas McDowell's story because as incomplete and typical it was, they brought some charm to it. Besides these two, Danielle Campbell, Cameron Monaghan & Nolan Sotillo scenes was little interesting. Nicolas Braun looked aged and not funny at all as he looked in trailers. Overall, good production value and time pass but story, dialogues and characterization is not worth it.
