Prom Reviews
Gee, could these photogenic opposites—tossed together in a plot contrivance—end up together at prom?

This movie feels like an uninspired cover song, and I can't imagine wanting to expose a kid to this when the originals are more entertaining, more challenging, and still out there.

Ultimately a collection of moments.
| Original Score: 2.5/4.0 | Sep 20, 2020
A watchable and satisfying family film.
| Original Score: 3.0/5 | Jun 30, 2013
When I was in high school, I would have pretended like this movie was beneath me, that it's just about stupid prom. That's sort of what high school is about too. But I secretly would have loved it.
| Original Score: B | Jun 22, 2013
Wholesome story, colorful characters and sweet romantic elements, make for a decent watch.
| Original Score: 7/10 | Apr 21, 2013
...a perfectly watchable - albeit utterly forgettable - little drama...
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 6, 2013
There's one hell of a drinking game to be made for every utterance of title word.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Feb 3, 2012
If Disney missed the bulls-eye this time, they still hit the target (audience).
| Original Score: 7/10 | Dec 29, 2011
Pretty much a non-starter...its squeaky-cleanliness will seem more at home in its inevitable cable afterlife on the Disney channel. [Blu-ray]
| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 16, 2011
[At least] it doesn't get mired in the '80s nostalgia that's come to infect today's teen comedies...
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Sep 6, 2011
teen drama that may be feel-good, but lets itself down by merely going through the motions.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 1, 2011
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jul 15, 2011
It's the kind of thing that gives sincerity a bad name.

With a squeaky-clean, smiling multi-ethnic cast, Prom gives a non-musical nod to Glee but doesn't dare address the same awkward teen issues that have made the show so popular.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 5, 2011
This Disney fare is so bland and unremarkable that you might be better off staying home and watching a repeat of Glee.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 3, 2011
As sanitised teen movies go, Prom is a scoop of sugar-free vanilla ice-cream resting on a gluten-free wafer that was manufactured in a completely sterile environment.

Only moderately exasperating.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 3, 2011
Romance flowering or being dashed, a school where no one appears to be doing any coherent work and a Prom which brings the whole messy thing towards its feelgood finish.
Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 3, 2011
As high-school movies go, Prom isn't the coolest kid in class, but an appealing cast ensures that the film's sweetness and good-humour will go down well with tweens, even if their older siblings find proceedings a little too safe and insipid.
