ManiakJiggy This is How Movies Should Be Made
Helloturia I have absolutely never seen anything like this movie before. You have to see this movie.
Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
Juni78ukr A little bit silly but surprisingly cool.Camp Nowhere was in many ways what I exactly expected; a little bit silly but funny and lighthearted family flick enough entertaining to keep us watching for 90 minutes. Christopher Lloyd is funny and likable while the kids are also delivering some funny and sweet moments.Basically it's a story of a bunch of kids who are going to different summer camps and for some reason each of them is not very happy about that idea. With a help of a former drama teacher they are deceiving their own parents each time in a rather funny and specific way and starting "Camp Nowhere" for all summer long with no adult supervising. Of course the kids are just mostly goofing around and having fun (and to be fair that's what they are supposed to do in summer) but at the same time they are becoming friends and eventually learn some positive values.Sure some stuff is far-fetched and hardly believable but who cares this time, anyway? It's a nice family entertainment which adults can survive without much pain and quite possible even enjoying with a thought that sometimes it might be much better to ask your offspring what he or she really likes and wants to do. Christopher Lloyd's character could be really annoying but this time his performance is rather cool and enjoyable while all the kids are trying to do their best and obviously having a great fun at the same time. The jokes are not that crude as they are used to be in many similar movies and the movie concept is not serious enough for real kids taking it as a good idea. It's also nice to see some modern stars in their first big screen appearances.
bugaloo_09 Well now, I haven't actually seen this movie in a while, so I'll spare the details. Well done? Yes. Humorous? Of course! Plot line? Pretty stinkin' good! Anyhoo, now that I've wasted about four lines on almost nothing, I can't think of too much else to say. I really enjoyed the whole idea, something realistic, and yet fictional enough for a movie. I also liked how it added in it's own little 'problems'. Overall, I think it came out rather well. My only problem? Ever notice how you watch a movie? And the kids on it, /around/ your age, seem pretty 'good looking'? But then, twelve or so years later, you come back and see what happened to this thing you used to worship? This my friends, or whoever, is why I've dropped the topic of 'young people' and moved onto my obsession with funny older men. Scary, eh? But that was off topic. Good job, all you producers out there! . . . . And I'm not too sure about the spoiler thing. Better put it on, just in case . . . .
qutj A wonderful funny movie. It is a good movie with good values. I have loved it since I saw it when it first came out. I have the DVD now and it still continues to make me smile and laugh as I watch it. I wanted to be at the camp with the kids. I watch it now and wish I could just get away and have a camp like that. The kids made there own camp and had, Christopher Lloyd, be there camp representative for multiple camps. Andrew Keagan is in it and when I was younger I thought he was the hottest guy alive so I loved to watch and re-watch the movie. The kids all get in trouble in the end for deceiving their parents and Lloyd gets his debt which has the cops looking for him paid off in a sweet way.
Cubbysden99 Camp Nowhere was a really fun movie to watch. It wasn't the funniest movie, but it was enjoyable. It brings back good memories from camp, and it makes you miss being a kid. Sure a lot this stuff, kids can't do but who cares, it was awesome. This movie isn't the type of movie where it can win awards, because it was more of a kids movie, and kids movies don't win awards. The only award I would give this movie is the most relaxing movie of all time. The only part I didn't like about this film, it that it was predictable, but all kids movies are like that. Great summer movie, and a good movie to watch more then once. I would give Camp Nowhere a 7.5 on 10. That is all I got to say about Camp Nowhere.
