High School Musical 3 overstays its welcome, stretching out about 20 minutes longer than it needs to, thanks chiefly to a final celebratory reel that simply refuses to end.

A real, honest-to-goodness teen musical throwback, as if Andy Hardy had never died and James Dean had never lived.

So sweet you'll leave the cinema with diabetes.

Its winning formula is driven not by narrative but by what isn't there: no sex, no drugs, and no rock and roll-- unless you count the logjam of thundering power ballads.

Musical 3 is frustratingly shallow, but what it lacks in narrative ambition, it makes up for in dazzling choreography.

It's a classic case of giving the people what they want.

Audience Reviews for High School Musical 3: Senior Year
-
Dec 02, 2011High School Musical 3 is much better than the first two films, mainly because of better songs and an interesting story. The cast still bothers me and didn't really do anything new here. The script has some good fun with its characters and gives them a good send off. I am not a High School Musical fan, but this final installment improved upon the first films and was actually a decent musical.Bradley W Super Reviewer

Jul 15, 2011The performances are flat, the story (if any) is repetitive and the lead characters are perpetually annoying.Ilyaas H Super Reviewer

Jul 02, 2011The best of the series but it's just too long. Some of the songs and dancing were actually pretty great. I was actually laughing a lot while watching this movie, not because of the comedy but because of some of the scenes are just so lame and ridiculous, esp. when Zac Efron started prancing like a little bitch, man, it was very entertaining.Cita W Super Reviewer
