High School Musical 3: Senior Year

All the cast in back in this next High School Musical about their senior year and the tough decisions they have to make about their future. Troy is struggling on whether to go to college where his dad wants him to go and play basketball or whether to try and find somewhere closer to Gabriella and pursue theater. This is a great family movie and I enjoy the fact that through the popularity of this series and others, musicals are coming back to life.

The College Road Trip

Martin Lawrence plays an overprotective cop/dad who is having a hard time with the thought of his daughter going off to college. He decides he is going to go with her on her college road trip to check out the schools she wants to attend. This trip will either make or break their fragile relationship. A pretty typical Martin Lawrence movie, but fun to watch. I thought Donny Osmond was one of the best parts about the movie.

House Bunny

When Shelley (Anna Faris) turns 27 and is kicked out the Playboy mansion she has no-where to go. She comes across a college sorority den mother meeting and decides that is what she is going to do. The only sorority in need of a den mother is the Zetas, a group of misfits that are in danger of losing their sorority due to lack of membership. Shelley is determined to help them save their house and become the most popular girls on campus. Of course this movie has been done multiple times before but still kind of cute.

Sydney White

When Sydney White first gets to college she is excited to pledge the same sorority that her deceased mother was previously in. Unfortunately when she starts getting to know the girls in that sorority she quickly realizes that they are not a good match and she gets kicked out. Not knowing what to do, she joins a bunch of misfit boys and decides to go up against the Greek system to make some changes. I enjoy Amanda Bynes and I thought this was a silly but cute movie.

Accepted

When Bartleby Gaines is rejected from every college he applies to he decides instead of telling his parents he is just going to create his own "imaginary" college. He enlists the help of some fellow rejects and before you know it they have accidentally created a real college and the students come out of the woodwork to attend. They create their own curriculum which focuses on learning and having fun. This is an enjoyable and funny movie that is worth watching. I only wish a school like this really existed when I was in college.
