Although some of the songs were a bit too long and some of the acting was cringey, this movie had some great moments. The movie is very much produced as if it were a stage play for kids, which is heavily shown through the main characters breaking the fourth wall to talk to the viewer at some points in the movie. This was the most negative part to me and is a little off putting if you're over the age of eight, but some parents or children might find it charming. The big dance numbers were really fun to watch and I even started bopping to one of the songs by the time the movie was over. The colors were super vibrant - sometimes the costumes seemed cheap-looking but for a Disney Channel film, nobody in the age bracket they're producing for will probably notice that stuff anyways.
The best part of the film was the message. Super relevant to today and a great way to teach kids about diversity and how to combat what they call "zombiephobia". The cast was also super diverse and also very likeable, which made me want to keep watching. Not the best, but definitely not the worst, and would definitely watch again.
