Nonureva Really Surprised!
Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good
Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
CrackerJacker66 Another crappy and unfunny Nickelodeon sitcom like Fred: The Show, Bucket & Skinner, Marvin, Marvin and many others. Dear God...This show is beyond horrible.The only reason this show was made was sell itunes music singles and CDs to cash in on the music/singing show era of Nick and Disney. This show came too late when that era started to die out. I also felt like this show was trying to the next Victorious and it failed miserably.The lead actress can't act and her character is annoying and unlikable and only has guest appearances and a starring role show on Nickelodeon because a few years earlier her older brother Lil Romeo had his own Nickelodeon show "The Romeo Show" which was god awful too. Nepotism much? Neither have acting or singing talent.The rest of the characters suck too. We got the bitchy mean girl and her idiot blonde sidekick, the bland pretty boy/love interest, the sensible tomboy, the two comic reliefs one a goofy looking white kid and a token black guy. Neither are funny, just cringe-worthy.Every episode was the same and repetitive. Molly and Kacey continue rivaling each other, Kacey becomes selfish and self centered in some way, her friends get mad at her, she apologizes and then Kacey learns her lesson in the end and they friends again. Yawn....Overall, it's unfunny, terrible acting, cheap sets, lame plots ( a whole episode about fighting over a lunch table spot, seriously?), the songs suck, its boring and just generic and cliché. Glad this garbage got canceled after one season. Good riddance!
SanteeFats Wow got some serious haters on this series. I like it. It reminds me of my really old school days. Although I was on the outside of all the cliques. I admit some of the plot points you can see coming but I still think a lot of them are funny. I do support one point some one made. That is about the blonde's being idiots. How To Rock and A.N.T. Farm both feature really stupid blonde characters. A.N.T. Farm does have Olive Doyle as a blonde who is a smarty but that seems to primarily come from her eidetic memory, what would the character be with out the memory, just another dumb blonde? The band scenes are not very well done but are usually funny or cute. I like Stevie as she won't take guff from anyone. I also enjoy Kirk Fox as the teacher. I have seen him doing stand up and he is pretty good. I was sorry to see this series get axed after just one season.
better-together I am so disappointed. I was so excited for How To Rock! I even had a little countdown calendar "twenty more days until the premiere..." But I was so disappointed in the premiere. The acting was cringe-worthy and the singing was mediocre. The plot line was dumb, the whole show is a stereo- type and ill executed. Cymphonquice is just not ready to carry her own show. She is very pretty, as is the rest of the cast however the jokes are not funny and this show is just unbelievable. I'm sorry, but this show is not good and I can't believe I was so excited for it. Nickelodean needs to learn from the success of Big Time Rush, iCarly, and Victorious and save How To Rock because it truly does have potential.
relious I have been a huge fan of Nickelodeon my whole life, I've watched every episode of iCarly since it was new. I have also watched shows like Big Time Rush, Victorious, Tuff Puppy. Sometimes when I see a new show being advertised I predict it's going to stink, but I'm usually wrong. I predicted that How To Rock was going to stink. I couldn't be more right, the plot is dull and predictable, the jokes are flat and unfunny. It seems like every show now a days has to have a blonde girl who is dumber than a bag of rocks, it gets old very fast. I seriously feel very let down by Nick. I seriously hope Nickelodeon is done making stupid shows because I don't know what they were thinking when they made this. If you want to watch this show, let me help you. You won't laugh, you won't be having fun. Instead you'll be wishing you were in prison! Yes, It's that bad! Avoid. Avoid. Avoid.
