Before I review this movie, I would like to give a little background as to my history with High School Musical. I had no interest, whatsoever, to see High School Musical. The Disney channel and its movies used to be filled with magic and beauty. Over the years, Disney has really lost its flair for the magic that once was. My youger brother told me about High School Musical and I told him to piss off! But then just before I had to go off to work, he pops in the dvd and makes me watch the first 15 minutes. I was hooked! Seeing these two kids singing for the first time, falling in love right before my eyes left me smiling all day. I wanted to see what would happen next. I eventually saw the entire movie and loved every minute of it. Its message of acceptance in High School and the pressures of fitting in I thought were very relevant. The remembrance of first loves, school spirit, friends were all a part of the High School Musical experience. Yes, the cheesiness of the dialouge gave little chance for most of the actors to turn in mind blowing performances. But given the material, the cast succeeded with flying colors. The magic of Disney was back. And the world was also aware of this because, what would follow would be one of the most inticipated sequels in Disney history, High School Musical 2. I am not ashamed to say that I rushed to the television to watch the sequel, in all its majesty. I am not suprised to say that the sequel was made on a grander scale but lost alot of that magic that made the first so special. Yes, it had more songs, more dancing, and more cheesiness. The truth of the matter is that the creators of High School Musical 2 made the same mistake that most sequels make. They thought that more is better when that is obviously not the case. The magic of Troy and Gabriella was replaced with, "When are they gonna kiss?" But that is not to say that High School Musical 2 doesnt have its moments. There is the idea that there is alot of pressure on teens about what to do after high school, finding the money for college.
While there are fewer songs in this movie that are good, the ones that are, rival the quality of the first High School Musical film. Two of my personal favorites were "Gotta Go My Own Way" and "Bet On It". Its not a great movie and its nowhere near as good as the first, but i did enjoy it for what it effort and I would reccomend it to HSM fans. But then again, HSM fans dont need me to convince them! Looking forward to the theatrical release of High School Musical 3! yay! See you in the theater!
HSM2: Deluxe Dance Edition--Truly Deluxe! September 11, 2008

I was amazed by the amount of extras on this 2-Disc DVD set. What a fantastic set--with over 5 hours of bonus material. The story is typically light-hearted fun as you would expect from this franchise. It's the last day of school, and all your favorite East High Wildcats are counting down the seconds for the final bell that tells them it's finally summer! The rousing opening song is "What Time Is It?" and gets the movie off to a high energy start. Troy (Zac Efron), Gabriella (Vanessa Hudgens), and the gang must get summer jobs; meanwhile, Sharpay (Ashley Tisdale) wants to get Troy a job at her country club, Lava Springs, so that he can sing with her at the talent show and become her new boyfriend. Unbeknownst to her, the club's manager, Mr. Fulton (Mark L. Taylor), has to hire the entire gang to get Troy...including Troy's girlfriend Gabriella. Sharpay does everything she can to break the two up, including setting Zac up with a sweet college scholarship. Can Zac resist?
Visually, this movie is a technicolor feast that harks back to the Esther Williams/Busby Berkeley musicals of MGM. One of the most spectacular numbers if "Fabulous," sung by Sharpay (Ashley Tisdale) as she lets everyone at the pool know that she has impossibly high standards. Her brother, played by Lucas Grabeel, is dolled up like Elton John and plays a pink piano in the shallow end of the pool while wearing a white tux with hot pink lapels. Definitely classic!
Spec-wise, the DVD audio is a speaker blowing Dolby Digital 5.1 mix and the video is full-frame. Sure, for those with 16x9 or widescreen TVs it's a disappointment. However, this movie was originally shown on the Disney Channel, and as you can clearly see in the behind-the-scenes documentaries (as you look over the shoulder of the camera and see the framing), this movie was COMPOSED for full-screen, even though there was spillover frame to fill out a widescreen. Minor quibbling point...still a great piece of entertainment suitable for ALL ages.
Now onto the extras...there's a ton! You get a great sneak-peak at High School Musical 3 (which will actually debut in theaters), which shows that the whole gang is back, along with three newcomers (looks like Sharpay may have some competition in the conniving department from the new girl). There are also some deleted scenes; although they were trimmed for the right reasons, one does explain a little bit of how Gabriela got to the Country Club for the talent show. Backstage Disney also gives you High School Confidential, an assortment of LOTS of featurettes such as:
*Manly the Dog: director Kenny Ortega's dog who has a featured spot in the movie as Sharpay's pampered pet.
*Sharpettes: Sharpay's sidekicks, featured in the "Fabulous" number
*Hilarious one about Ashley Tisdale; all her costars say she is like Sharpay, even though she protests. Very cute.
*Zac Factor: All about Zac Efron
*Special photo gallery where you can guess what baby photos match your fave HSM star.
*The Making Of "HUMUHUMUNUKUNUKUAPUA'A."
*Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus is actually in HSM2; never knew that until I saw the featurette about her cameo!
*Cast Favorites: The stars dish (except for Zac who is not in this one) about their favorite singers, movie actors, desserts, and more.
*On Location - Visit the resort area of St. George, Utah
*In The Kitchen - Lucas Grabeel takes fans behind the scenes of the clubhouse kitchen set.
In the Music & More section you get:
*Dance Along: follow along to the moves of "What Time is it?" and "All For One." You'll be doing these dances in no time by following multiple camera angles.
*Music Video "All For One" - A special performance of the song is intercut with the cast recording session and behind-the-scenes footage.
And lots more! All HSM fans should add this one to their collections!
 Oh boy, another Full Screen DVD from Disney - no suprise here! September 4, 2008

Another release of HSM-2, with LOTS of fun extras but AGAIN full screen and NOT in its Original Aspect Ratio of 1.78:1 - a move you could bet the house on. With up-converting DVD players, the picture of standard DVD's look great on HDTV. Who wants to spend all that money on Blu-ray? The movie was fun and it's such a shame Disney still formats their top movies in an antique VHS tape format.
Now, with the soon to be released High School Musical 3 [Theatrical Release; what will the aspect ratio be on that DVD? I suspect we shall see by this Christmas!
