Lemonade Mouth is a Disney orignal movie playing on the Disney Channel. The movie is based on a book by the same name penned by Mark Peter Hughes. Lemonade Mouth is a musical drama about five Mesa High students who meet in detention hall. While cleaning out the music room while in detention, the teenagers discover that they all have musical talent. They decide to form a band by the name of Lemonade Mouth, the name originating after Stella spits lemonade at a rival band member. Besides struggling with the demands of starting a band, each band member faces a different personal challenge. Olivia's dad is in prison, Mo's parents are Indian and Mo is caught in the middle of living with two different cultures and the expectations of each. Since this a teenage musical, there are several lively numbers with singing and dancing. Of course, it isn't a tradional teenage flick without the principal acting in the role as the antagonist. Christopher MacDonald is the principal you love to hate. Lemonade Mouth has received postive reviews and they are well deserved. The movie promotes the importance of family, friends and values the traits of hard work and determination.
I think that upper elementary students and young teenagers will enjoy this movie. For moms and dads, this is a very enjoyable movie to watch with your children.
