The equivalent of The Wiggles for 'tweens.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 17, 2011

There's no plot, no character development, no dramatic arc. It just plops you smack down in the epicenter of the JoBro musical youthquake, and away you go.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 29, 2011

Teen sensations can put on an impressive act, just don't ask them to fake-act their "rock-star life."

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Apr 4, 2011

The film features two guest spots with other artists from the Disney stable, Demi Lovato and Taylor Swift. Swift is a star of the future, and I guess you can bet on her own 3D film in the pipeline, but Demi Lovato, whoever she is, oughtn't give up her day

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 4, 2010

Fans of the Jonas Brothers, Pavlov and Freud should be equally satisfied for a 75-minute stint.

...the film boasts a preaching-to-the-converted vibe that effectively holds newcomers at arm's length throughout.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 20, 2009

canned and created by committee

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/5 | Jul 8, 2009

Fascinating only for the opportunity to observe the mesmerizing effect of a well-rehearsed, mass seduction on an auditorium filled with willing, adoring girls.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jun 29, 2009

As sunglasses and guitar picks fly...and mics and pointing drumsticks thrust out of the screen, it's a sort of metaphor for the whole film (and the band it captures) to ponder which effects are "real" and which are manufactured in a computer. [Blu-ray]

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jun 28, 2009

The music is unmemorable, the staging conventional, the connection between religious and sexual ecstasy very evident.

This does pretty much what it says on the tin, though the interactive "3D" element does introduce a twist of sorts.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 2, 2009

Hate the songs. What a lot of hair they have. Don't ask me the names.

| Original Score: 1/5 | May 29, 2009

Sorry boys, for fear of sounding like an old fuddyduddy, I thought the majority of their pop rock songs sounded pretty much the same. But this film wasn't made for me. It was made for their fans, who will love it.

The songs wash over in waves of such turgid mediocrity that by the end you're praying for it to stop. Thankfully, after 76 minutes, it does - and all is well again.

| Original Score: 1/6 | May 29, 2009

This personality vacuum is a real problem in a film that purports to depict a day in the life of young pop stars whom audiences can actually relate to.

| Original Score: 1/5 | May 29, 2009

The movie, sadly, perpetuates the corporate myth that they are musical tyros, boyband savants and the sweetest virgins in the business.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 29, 2009

It's A Hard Day's Night all over again, except nobody has bothered to write the brothers some funny dialogue.
