Prom

When a high school hosts a 1920s-themed Prom and the graduating class comes dressed in Civil War attire, it is irrefutable evidence our education system is failing.

Thankfully, the premise of the promenade in this teen-comedy does not involve any historical accuracy.

When all of the decorations for the prom perish in a random fire, the class president (Aimee Teegarden) is left scrabbling.

Serendipitously, the class badass (Thomas McDonell) infuriates the principal, garnering himself a severe punishment, wherein he must help craft the new ornaments.

Simultaneously, a host of other clichéd high school romances sprout up and play out in similar fashion.

A rose coloured representation of high school graduation, Disney's Prom is squeaky clean: the actors are fresh faced, the vignettes are wishy-washy and the jokes are sterile.

Besides, how can you even call it a senior prom if there wasn't even one abandoned newborn found in the toilet? (Red Light)
