San Francisco Chronicle - Mick LaSalle
: The credit goes to Efron, a teen idol who has girls shrieking in the theater from his first close-up but who is also an actor and proves it over the course of the picture.

Reelviews - James Berardinelli

The movie was cute, funny, sweet and romantic. It has simple story and good message. Zac Efron successfully portrayed the character. | | | | Reply | | |      sammons. says @ Tuesday - April 21,2009
The movie disappointed me because of the language and sexual references. This movie will appeal to pre-teens. They could have thought a little more about their target audience when they made this film. | | | | Reply | | |      ahmed_sa says @ Tuesday - April 21,2009
