Kenny Ortega's High School Musical 2 reunites the cast from the hit made-for-Disney Channel original to tell another story in the lives of the musically inclined students attending East Side High. The sequel takes place primarily at the Lava Springs Country Club, an exclusive summer resort that hires Wildcat basketball hero Troy Bolton (Zac Efron), his genius girlfriend Gabriella Montez ({Vanessa Hudgens}), and their two best friends.

High School magic strikes again.
The songs in this installment are nowhere near the quality of those in the original, but they work well enough
...possesses few elements designed to capture (and hold) viewers over a certain age.
I respect it for the fact that it brought the cast back in total and actually put together a coherent story
By gosh, these kids... they're the Mousketeers come again!
It's light and fluffy fun that's largely harmless. In 20 years there's also going to be a lot of parents explaining to their children that yes, "Mommy and Daddy did dress like that."
Actually better than the first one... The songs are catchier, the comedy funnier, the attitudes sunnier.
Too much music-video cutesiness and not enough plot or dramatic tension, even for a musical comedy.
Heck, it could be worse: It could be an Olsen Twins movie.
Audience Reviews for High School Musical 2
Super Reviewer
-
- Troy Bolton: What was the first thing you said to me when I started working here?
- Sharpay Evans: Bring me more iced tea?
-
- Sharpay Evans: [to Fulton] I told you to hire Troy Bolton, not the entire East High student body!
-
- Sharpay Evans: What did I do to deserve this? I've never lied, except when necessary, and I always bought Mom and Dad expensive gifts...using their credit card of course. I don't deserve this humiliation.
- Mr. Fulton: You need to get out there.
-
- Sharpay Evans: You don't like the fact that I won.
- Gabriella Montez: What's the prize? Troy? [Troy walks up behind Gabriella and hears the rest]
- Troy Bolton: The Stardazzle award? You have to go through all this just to get either one? No, thanks Sharpay. You're very good at a game that I don't want to play. So, I'm done here. But you better step away from the mirror long enough to check the damage that will always be right behind you.
