![]() But this could also be due to the fact that this movie is only 90 mins long. ![]() For some reason, it was just the set up that felt rushed. Bartlett won’t let them compete at the mid-point and hit a roadblock while trying to get to regionals by the beginning of the 3rd act. Everything after that felt like proper pacing, however. They had already lost their old coach, found a new one, formed a new team (with lots of drama), learned a new routine and completely failed within those first 30 mins. For example, when they attend their very first meet and completely botch the entire performance. It felt like things happened way too quickly. One thing that I find interesting about this movie is the pacing. Which is also funny because that’s literally what I do right for a profession. Bartlett said “Dot.com job” I cracked up. The funniest thing about watching these movies is how they can unintentionally date themselves. ![]() I immediately recognized her as the cleaning woman on Seinfeld who was obsessed with the cashmere sweater George Costanza gives her. Honorable mention goes to Gina Gallego who played Alyssa’s mom. Her most recent credit notes her as voicing several characters on the popular animated series Steven Universe.

She is seriously the best.Ĭamille Guaty, who plays Daisy, has since been in numerous tv shows like Prison Break, Las Vegas and most recently, The Good Doctor. She’s been in iconic roles like Ugly Betty, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and one of my favorite comedies Superstore (which is sadly coming to an end next week!). America Ferrara, who plays Yolanda, is one of my favorites actors. I have two words for you: America Ferrera. I would have liked to see them compete at Regionals with the flashier uniforms. The new ones are very “high school sports team” and pretty basic. Q: Anyone else find their old uniforms to be way cuter than the new ones?Ī: The old uniforms have so much more style and pizzaz than the new ones. Maybe a little time with Cadet Kelly will teach them some manners. The only way Principal Zalvada can get their attention is if he treats them like they’re his own personal military cadets. ![]() But these kids are just plain rude and disrespectful to their teachers. I was once it high school and I know kids are mean. I’m also not here for DC (Marvel fan all the way), but that’s a story for another blog post.Ī: I know, I know. I tried watching Zack Snyder’s Justice League and saw that it was 4 hours long (I kid you not) and gave up after 30 mins. Q: What’s one of the best things about Disney Channel Original Movies, you may ask?Ī: The short run time. With the addition of Daisy, a rebellious girl who only joined the team to get out a detention, the girls find themselves working together and busting a move all the way to regionals. And with plenty of begging, the girls convince her to be their coach. But things turn around when they discover that the new biology teacher, Ms. We’re back, baby!
