Dove Review

This is a comical musical about a group of young singers and dancers as they try to make their dreams come true. It’s an up-beat film geared toward the tween set and teaching everyone that dreams can come true no matter the obstacles that may get in the way.

As the two groups battle it out, they also pull some pranks on each other. But in the end the talent is amazing as each group brings their best to the competition, giving this film a “Standing Ovation” for the young artist it brings to the screen.

We award the Dove “Family-Approved” Seal for ages twelve and over.
