Let me preface this by saying I am a hardcore kimi wa petto fan with matsujun. (he was sooo cute!) I would also like to mention that although I liked Geun Seok, I really felt hat he was too handsome and not cute enough. However when I watched the movie I became a fan, not enough to topple kimi wa petto, but enough to be a hair’s difference.
First are the comparisions. They have the same concept, but in kimi wa petto I still feel that matsumoto jun was way cuter, like puppy dog cute, but JGs was the kind of puppy you could see as a man. The chemistry between Ha Neul and JGS was like brother sister and she didn’t start off as cold as the lady from kimi wa petto- maybe because a drama has more time. Still, the movie brought out some points that the drama didn’t touch on, and although they are very similar, it almost feels like a different story.
I really like how they pretty much let JGS get manish from day one, so when the transition from pet to man came it didn’t seem so awkward. I didn’t like that there were some holes in the plot (I filled them in myself from kimi wa petto), and I also didn’t like how JGS’s goal was so sketchy and undefined. ballet to musicals? really?? his dancing seemed a bit stiff, and a bit much, but singing was heavenly. (but they did show off his singing, so yea! i missed it after YAB.)
All in all I would definitely watch again I liked all the eye candy, and the concept from the drama. If it can convert an Arashi, matsujun fan girl like me, it will be fun for all.

I think by now everyone knows the story behind High School Musical. This movie is a Chinese adaption of the original high school musical movie. With Chen Zi Han starring as Ning Ning, The chinese version of the schoolbright girl who has an urge to reach towards the stars to find her way into the music world.

I was actually pretty surprised when watching this movie. Originally, Yes I was a fan of the original HSM when it arrived aswell, And allthough the plot is pretty much the same in both movies I feel that this version was more mature than the original made by Disney. Music in the show with all different syles added. From the most beautiful ballads to the most lively hiphop songs. This movie is sure to have music for everyone to enjoy. The Movie's message being; ''We're all in this together'' It was better displayed in this version.

Ning Ning is a girl who's recently moved into the neighborhood and so she is transfering schools along with it. With Strict parents not allowing her to have a boyfriend, and forcing her to constantly study, She reaches secretly for the stars in order to find something new that she can do. Surprised to find her hands leading her the way towards ''Poet'', The Basketball Teams captain with simillar dreams as hers, Here on starts a romance who will have its share of difficulties awaiting ahead.
..Will Ning Ning and Poet's love be able to take it?

In this movie you'll face romance, comedy and drama in genres.
Its a pretty good movie, I actually fullheartedly believe, despite of me liking the original filmseries too, This movie is better.
Its a movie I'd recommend to all music and romance lovers.
Depite of the plots of the movies being exactly the same, The movies are nothing alike.. Both fans and people who didn't like the original series will enjoy this.

With a satisfying soundtrack, I feel that this remake is as good as it could have been. It even beats the original in several aspects.. The rewatch value is high, I know I'll be re-watching this later atleast..

muhaha

one of the most boring romance film ive seen (ok not really)

the moe girl didnt save this decent film from being so badly pace piece of low budget medium of entertainment...

(negative comment...come to me ^.^)

time travel theme is the kind of stuff that i really really interest with..(ive seen dozens of time themed films..and this is the worse)
(i actually watch this coz ive seen the awesome anime which is actually the direct sequel or spiritual sequel and this is a prequel whatever....this film is the third remake or second adaption of a certain novel)

my rant

1. acting is so so trying hard school play
2. the love story in this is soso fake and force which really doesnt exsist

3. pace is slower than snail/ no big deal really happening except for the force scenarios

4. the climax is cliche as going to hell
5. the ending is fine
6. very very predictable...
7. heartwarming scene is fake
8. if you find this poo wanna be film exciting and suprising with many many twist....bring a calculator and count it and tell me how many.
ps: this is my 2nd rage review ^w^ (will edit soon without rudeness)

Going into this movie I kept telling myself that I wouldn't compare it to the drama, and that was actually pretty easily done. If you are a huge fan of the Japanese drama, you will not like this, unless your like me.

The story, is not original, seeings how its been done before, however its not like the drama either. I liked the movie because, it was lighthearted, and I was in major need of the fluffiness of it. It's upbeat, and not to serious.

Chemistry wise, could have been better. JGS was very adorkable in his role as Momo. You don't actually believe he is a pet, but you can see the cute qualities of a pet in him. He maintained his pride as a man, while being what she needed.

For "Momo" to supposedly be a dancer, I was very disappointed. There wasn't enough dancing. And, the music seemed sub-par to me.

I would re-watch this, if after a spat of really sad melodrama's, I need a pick-me-up.

Overall, not a bad movie, but not a great one either.
