Posted: 2/17/05 at 9:15pmNo! It's so terrible!!!!! I warn you! The idea of the movie is far better than what it actually is.

Posted: 2/17/05 at 9:21pmThe movie is GREAT when they're having fun with it and making fun of themselves. But as soon as they bring the whole "I'm confused, am I bisexual?" and "I'm such a sad oppressed little gay boy" cliche's into the story - not to mention the worst acting I have ever seen in a movie.

Camp.
Amazing concept.
Some brilliant moments.
"She's ****ed...I'm ready...and the show must go on"
But, overall, the execution is poor, sloppy and cliche.

Posted: 2/17/05 at 9:27pmI almost find the cliches refreshing. And there are plenty of them. But I love the movie.

Maybe not the concept of the story overall.
But some of the story and design concepts, particulary the parts that focused on musical theatre (the Dreamgirls sequence, The Ladies Who Lunch, the 'I'm Still Here' sequence)...all those sequences, which were hysterical, were wasted in an otherwise crappy screenplay.

Posted: 2/17/05 at 9:36pmI agree 100% with Priest. Those were the only parts I enjoyed. Otherwise the movie is fair to poor.
#21Waiting for CAMP
Posted: 2/17/05 at 9:45pmI hated the original music in it, but the parts with FOLLIES, DREAMGIRLS, PLAY, etc. were just hysterical. Too bad there wasn't more of them.

Posted: 2/18/05 at 12:02amPriest and munkustrap have it totally right. All the theatre allusions are a riot, and the singing is great. But when they try to throw a plot about self-discovery and confusion in there, it gets stupid. It should have just been more funny moments from theatre camp, because those were the moments that worked the best.

You guys ever been to theatre camp? I'll agree the acting wasn't superb but even the cliche moments were pretty true to what goes on in a place like that. Amazingly wrong casting choices (I mean, who'd do Follies at a camp filled with pre-teens or high schoolers at best?), awkward moments of self-discovery...I'll agree with Priest that the concept and the actual moments themselves were smartly thought-out. It's the execution that lacked.

Posted: 2/18/05 at 9:21amI totally agree about the whole "gay" theme being thrown in there. I thought that if someone was looking at the movie who didnt really know about all that, would really be thrown off.I also agree about the musical numbers, Jerry mitchell's choreography in "Turkey Lurkey time" is so fun.

Having went to a performing Arts High School, I can totally relate to this movie. The whole Vlad seducing Robin's character...I knew someone in high school who was just like Vlad, in the sense that he wanted all the attention, he would have gone that far, just to be loved.
I will also say, that in high school, I knew every single character in that movie. I even saw myself in one of them. That movie is realistic in many ways.
But, let's not forget the title "Camp". It has a double meaning, people!
"Do you know what pledge time is, Andrew"? said the PBS Executive.
"Yes", Lloyd Webber replied. "My 50th birthday special must be one program that gets done a lot."
"No", mused the man from PBS heedlessy. "Not so much. Our Stephen Sondheim Carnegie Hall concert. That's a big one."
Spoons, forks and knives seemed suddenly to suspend their motion in horror, all around the table.
