Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Palaest recommended

Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

Walter Sloane Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

bkoganbing Ross Lynch, Olivia Holt and Gregg Sulkin all Disney Channel veterans star in this film about a new kid in school who while at a phone kiosk in a mall gets himself a magic phone app where all he has to do is update his status as one does on Facebook and you are what you write. Wouldn't have I liked to have what Lynch has acquired.Of course one has to be very careful in the words you write. For example Lynch writes in his music he's classically trained. When it comes to an audition Lynch opens his mouth and out comes the Habanera from Carmen. We never do find out how he explained that away.All new kids are a zero socially, but with the help of the app Lynch becomes the big man on campus. He even steals Courtney Eaton whom he is dating in real life from former big man on campus Gregg Sulkin and almost loses good girl Olivia Holt in the process.Not only the presence of the Disney Channel veterans, but the material itself makes one feel you never left the Magic Kingdom. Still it's entertaining and easy to take.

mmevanille-53097 Looking at this film from the perspective of its target audience, which is basically teens/young adults, It quite a solid film. A story about being true to yourself, but its told in a unique way. Actors did fine, plot was well written if maybe slightly over the top at times. Its hard to write a film about wishes coming true because the wording of any wish can always be open to interpretation, but I think Status Update captures the magic of it quite well. The pace is good, Cinematics fine for a lower budget film. I wouldn't call it an overly funny film, although it does have its moments. If you or your children like Glee, then you will probably like this. Its worth a watch if you like the Teenage Fantasy genre and a bit of fun; But not one for serious critics, hence some of the previous reviews.

facundoliporace The truth is that I liked it very much and it fulfilled my expectations, I laughed and enjoyed many moments. Ross Lynch and Olivia Holt are a very good team. The performances are quite good, this film deserves more recognition, has good messages and teachings for young people. .Status Update 8/10.

brittneyarc Absolutely love everything with Ross Lynch in it!!!! Amazing actor, dancer, singer and overall a very well rounded entertainer!
