Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Rexanne It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
hollywoodgirl-1 I really enjoyed this movie back when it came out and am so sad that Disney insists on making new movies every month while completely forgetting their classic older ones, which are much more enjoyable than the new cheesy ones. The plot is simple enough: A big movieplex is playing home to a huge Hollywood premier. They are still showing films (a little odd) right up until the second of the premier, but someone (a mysterious phantom...) is thwarting everything and causing general mayhem. Who is this phantom? Why is he doing this? A cute film that is predictable but plays out well, the characters are good and relatable to everyone. This film seems to have really captured what it is like working in a theater, which I am now thinking twice about doing. I loved the contemporary take on Phantom of the Opera as well. I wish they would show this more on Disney, it really is a great movie for everyone of all ages. The footage from the original Phantom movie was a nice touch.
Kevin This movie isn't good, original or anything that would qualify a movie as a must see. But it is pretty decent, the plot is very much predictable but then again, so is the plot for pretty much every kidsmovie (what this clearly is)anyway, nice for the kids, and if you're bored and there is nothing better on the telly pretty decent to watch.5 out 10
dxpac14 i think that this movie was good. you have to remember that this is a disney movie and it is meant for kids to enjoy. most adults would think its a waste of time watching and give it a bad rating, but kids would like it. some of the actors could have been played by better actors, and they could have made it longer, but i still liked it.
sugar14250 This movie seems like it was put together out of desperation, not the desire to make a movie. It had a terrible plot, bad acting, and the characters were not believable. It was a Disney made for TV movie, which explains much of this. Though not as bad as "Mom's Got a Date With a Vampire", it was still not worth seeing.If you want to see a movie that doesn't require much brain work, this would be a good one. I give it 2 out of 10 stars.
