As a big zac efron fan I was really looking forward to watching this. Unfortunately it was very disappointing. Basically it's about 3 single guys who make a vow to stay single after a string of bad relationships, however, they all soon enter into relationships and try to keep it a secret from one another. I love a good romantic comedy but this failed quite badly, even the scenes between zacs character and the woman he falls for quite tedious, there was very little between them that made me want them together and for a film that's supposed to be a comedy I didn't laugh once. Safe to say I won't be watching it again.

Terrific casting (2 more)
Amazing choreography
Fantastic original soundtrack
Best film of its year!!
Favorite movie of the year when this came out. Hugh Jackman at his finest. Terrific original choreography and soundtrack. This is a great movie for any age. Zendaya and Zac Afron's chemistry on screen was terrific. This movie was a spectacular masterpiece.

Such a great film!
When I first saw this I didn't know it was a musical. The music pulled me in from the moment it started. The music just builds and builds through out the whole movie. The sound track to this movie is just as amazing too. I highly recommend.

Zac Efron CAN Really Act
Contains spoilers, click to show
I’d been looking forward to this ever since hearing about it and I have to say that I wasn’t disappointed!
I suppose after watching Zac Efron grow up in High School Musical films and then more grown up (but still musical) in The Greatest Show, I was wondering if he was going to pull it off but he’s certainly shed his teen idol status in this film.
Took me half the film to realise the fat, bearded one was Haley Joel Osment and to think of Jim Parsons as anything other than Sheldon. However he was great and not a bit camp. I really loved Lily Collins performance but I wanted to slap the CarolAnn character cos she was such a drip.
I was amazed that they could make a film of Ted Bundy without violence and gore. Apart from one very tame instance they managed it without it detracting from the film.
It’s a film that I would want to watch again and again, if not for Zac Efrons amazing performance, then to enjoy him getting naked!! As Bridget Jones would say he has a genuinely gorgeous bottom (and all his other parts!!)

The Greatest Showman
I love this movie so much. From the first downbeat it never stops. The dancing and singing is superb. Hugh Jackman has never been better. And Zac Effron is amazing. Keala Settle as Letty is a force to be reckoned with. Her voice is award worthy. This is a must see family film for musical lovers.

Although this movie spectacularly rose tints the crimes that Ted Bundy committed, this movie was fantastic! Zac Efron makes for one heck of a handsome serial killer and the story told from Elizabeth's point of view is such a sweet side of the story and you feel a little sympathy for Ted, he was such a great father figure. Fascinating movie to watch! Suggest it to everyone!

Borrowed this from the Kindle Unlimited Library.
This starts with Bianca at work and taking a call from her cousin who asks her to go and get NFO star and his best friend Zac, since they haven't been able to get hold of him to tell him that his Paw-Paw has been admitted to hospital. It's been about ten years since Bianca last saw Zac, her teenage crush, and is reluctant to see him again but because she loves her cousin like a brother, she agrees to go see Zac and let him know what's happened. Before she realises it, Zac is a major part of her life again and the friendship they used to have has come back into full force. Only those pesky feelings she used to have for him haven't completely disappeared.
Mariana Zapata is the Queen of slow burn romances. You only ever see the woman's POV in her books and have to read the body language of the males to figure out what they're thinking and I think she is brilliant at it. Zac's facial expressions in this gave a lot away about how he was feeling but it still took somewhere around the 90% mark for the words to be spoken - the "I love you"s.
Her books are always long - I've pointed out several times I'm not the biggest fan of long books - but most of the time you don't even realise it because you're so engrossed in the story. The same could be said of this one although I did find Bianca a bit annoying at times with her persistent belief that Zac was only hanging around because he felt guilty for losing touch with her when he made sure she was there for everything and always wanted to hang out with her. I did feel like giving her a slap every now and then because it was pretty obvious he cared about you, you donut!
I also love how she writes the characters from her previous books into her latest. We see several of them in this one including characters from From Lukov with Love and The Wall of Winnipeg and Me and even DeMaio House gym plays a vital part in this book.
P.S. I can't help feeling like we've met Enzo somewhere before...?
