Camp Rock The Movie

Camp Rock, The Movie is kind of like Cinderella meets High School Musical. Taking on the lead female role is newcomer Demi Lovato as Mitchie Torres, a girl from a middle-class background who really wants to attend the prestigious and expensive Camp Rock. When her mum takes on a catering job at the camp, Mitchie gets the chance she's been waiting for on condition she helps out. Once at camp though, a desperate-to-fit-in Mitchie lies about her family's true background.

Joe Jonas plays Shane Grey, a rocker who gets dropped off at a music camp by his bandmates (Nick Jonas & Kevin Jonas) because of his unbearable divo-like attitude. Finding refuge in the woods from screaming fans, Shane over hears Mitchie sing but doesn't see her face. He embarks on a search for the girl whose voice touched him and at the same time starts to get close to the real Mitchie without connecting the two toghether. Unfortunately for them, this doesn't make the camp's spoilt brat Tess Tyler happy as she's out to get Shane for herself.
