Recently I was lucky enough to receive the Teen Beach 2 DVD for review and I must say this movie will more than likely blow you out of the water! (Pun intended!) From the super cool dance moves to the surprising range of emotions in the movie it definitely has something for everyone packed into it!
The one thing that stuck out the most to me in this movie was the girl power! All of the girls in the movie share a common goal of wanting more than their world is willing to give them which leads them to want to break free and shatter the glass ceiling made for women especially for Lela who’s used to the 1960’s. When she comes to Mack’s world she learns that she really can be anything she wants to be as she sings in one of the movie’s first songs “Right Where I Wanna Be”. Of course for Brady and Mack who are already going through issues of their own in their world it only adds to the turmoil. Even though they aren’t getting along they have to band together to get Lela and Tanner back where they belong even if Lela doesn’t really want to leave the 20th century!
Another one of my favorite things in this movie was the emphasis on believing in yourself and in knowing who you are should always be enough. This reign true for Tanner and Brady as they realize this in a cute scene in Brady’s workshop that’s my favorite scene in the movie. The actors who play Brady and Tanner, Ross Lynch (of Austin and Ally) and Garrett Clayton bring something to these characters that makes you truly believe that for as cool as they seem there’s a bit of insecurity that comes with it. Both these guys have always had it easy so when things go south they have to figure it out together which makes for quite the adorable bromance!
The movie was also of course jam packed with tons of new music and dances my favorite being “Gotta Be Me” which sends an awesome message of being yourself as well as the fun filled finale song “That’s How We Do” that’s filled with made up words and fun dance moves that make you want to get up and boogie! Also be on the lookout for a nod to some classic movies during the “Silver Screen” performance (which is my second favorite of the film).
Overall this film was admittedly better than I truly excepted and knocked the socks off the first movie and I give it a solid A- which would have been an A+ if it weren’t for a certain twist towards the end of the movie. (It’s a doozy!) So go pick up Teen Beach 2 and rock out to the music while learning valuable lessons about loving yourself! It doesn’t get much better than that!
Stay tuned for more Teen Beach! (Here’s to a Teen Beach 3!)
