SA5M (Bandslam) #58 ~ Because she needed another minute...and we NEED another hour!
Welcome to the 'SA5M' Appreciation Thread
What is 'Bandslam'? Bandslam centers on a high school outcast and a popular girl who form
an unlikely bond through their shared love of music. Assembling a
like-minded crew of misfits, the friends form a rock group and
perform in the battle of the bands competition at their school.
Who is SA5M?
The 5 is silent. Sa5m is 15 years old, dressed down in black jeans and t-shirt,
with hair strategically hiding her face from the world, she is a loner, one of the
school’s outsiders, constantly seen with a book in hand. Smart, with a sense of
humor and a lot of disdain for her shallow peers, Sam is a former stutterer and
now speaks slowly and deliberately. She teams up with Will on a class project,
and the two quickly discover they have a lot in common. Their friendship
eventually takes the shape of a burgeoning romance. Brought on board
as the lead singer for the band Will is managing, Sa5m emerges from her
cocoon, demonstrating grit and commitment to perfection…

Because NY Times says, "Bandslam buoyant, gratifying and, yes, rocking."
Because EW says there's a "strong filmmaking backbeat to carry the movie's light tune."
"It is a sophisticated and engaging teen film that deserves to be a success."
"There's a layer of realism and smart humour here you probably wouldn't expect"
"Bandslam is an intelligent teen film that avoids teen film cliches."
"Consistently exceeds current teen-flick standards"
"Surprising thing happens on the way to hating Bandslam. You kind of can’t"
"Simulatneously shiny & retro, caliberated & uncalculated, familiar & unpredictable"
"The late John Hughes would have liked Bandslam."
"Vanessa Hudgens is charm wrapped in quirky fashion as the undiscovered singer Sa5m."
"Better than probably 90% of most of the junk that is routinely foisted on the teen audience."
"unexpectedly sophisticated and astute drama as much as a rousing musical celebration."
"Vanessa more than manages to escape the heels of Gabriella & create a much more rounded character."
I think its beautiful when people stay true to who they are.
Even if they're extremely quirky or... all over the place.
I think that if you own who you are... thats just beautiful ~ Vanessa Hudgens ~
