It is a performances centric movie

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Geek Charming is a 2011 romantic teen comedy by Disney Channel and tells the story of a unpopular guy named Josh Rosen(Matt Prokop)who wants to film a movie about popularity for the school film festival. So he asks the popular girl in school Dylan(Sarah Hyland)to be involved in his movie. But as the two spend some time together Josh realises that Dylan was a geek just like him into films but she hated who she was and adapted this persona to get in with the cool kids. But will she ditch her popular friends for nerdy friends as well as romance blossoming between her and Josh?Now I am not the target audience for this movie but as a childless 24 year old woman I found myself actually liking this movie. Is it Oscar worthy no its not,but what draws me to this film is the story. You've got someone who is trying to be someone they are not and a lot of people do this in order to fit in. The moral I got out of this film was to be yourself and not let anybody judge you for who you really are. The chemistry between former couple Matt Prokop and Sarah Hyland was sweet and the humor was grand for a TV movie.In my opinion its a lot better than the other Disney Channel movies(I am looking at you High School Musical).My rating is a 7/10 and my grade for this movie is a B-. Like I said I really enjoyed it.

I read some of the reviews and I am shocked at what people wrote. I am a huge movie fan and I always give the benefit of the doubt. I never listen to what others think because I like to compose my own opinion on any movie.This is the worst movie I've ever seen. Th plot is terrible and predictable. The acting is awful and the overall execution is a shameful one at best.I feel like making a hard-hitting expose about how bad this movie is. I know that a Disney TV movie can't beat an Oscar winning feature but this is just embarrassing... both for the viewers and the actors... I mean come on... this has been done so many times in the past but never to this extent... The only thing that made me sort of smile is the dogs name... apart from that I feel that about 93 and a half minutes of terrible terrible acting/filming/movie making...just a disgrace.I'd rather not watch any more movies... ever! than watch this again. I gave it a 1 star as this is the lowest possible but if I could I'd give it -100

The movie starts with Dylan dreaming of winning a beauty pageant. We get to see her life as a high school diva. She has 2 friends who aspire to be like her. Her followers. We see she had an old friend who she ditched when she became popular. We see a rival who also wants to be the Blossoms Queen. And we see her being rude to our hero, who is a "Film Geek". The other angle is through this geek named Josh. Josh is not cool. He has weird friends. He has a really bad car. He thinks Dylan is completely lame. Totally clichéd characters, right? A diva and a geek
. What now? They'll first fight and then fall in love? Right, like that's new! But it is! When these two clichéd characters come together, we see something really spontaneous and original. None of the characters are truly cliché. They have another side. Of course this movie is not for the ones who want something meaningful to come out of the 90 minutes they spend on it. Its light, its funny and its worthy of one watch and a lot of giggles. Matt is pretty good but he smiles a lot. Sarah is cute and girlie. And as always you get that Disney feeling when the movie ends. In Marshal Erikson's words, you'll be "Disneyed"!

Geek Charming is an innocuous but all together impossible tale of the nerd who woos the diva with the technique of making a film documentary about her. Matt Prokop is the film geek and Sarah Hyland is the diva whose biggest ambition in life is to be Blossom Queen of her high school. Even over 40 years ago I well remember about how high school was so regimented into a caste system of cliques. A lot of kids are going to see this teen comedy from Disney Studios and start thinking the barriers are not so impossible. Prokop has his set with other film buffs of which I could have been one and hits on the idea of making a documentary that will gain him a scholarship to film school. He decides to do a documentary exploring the secret of popularity with Hyland as the subject. She's thinking this will help her in her campaign to be Blossom Queens which is what they must call Homecoming Queen in her high school. The crowning achievement of her life? She reminds me so much of the equally vapid Mila Kunis in That Seventies Show who said that nothing would deter her from her ambition to be a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader.And as these films go both start to change each other just by being in close association. It's the Disney Studios so their product is usually limited in the directions they go.Propkop and Hyland are decent enough leads and attractive. But nothing terribly out of the ordinary here.
