Most of the rest of the characters are disposable, though. Go to Full Review

Aug 11 This movie’s a must-watch for most people. You don’t have to be an aspiring teen girl or a shy kid, and I think no matter who you are you’ll find you can relate to Radio Rebel. Some of the co-stars have… questionable acting moments, but Debby Ryan as well as the other main characters really pull it together and give it the vibe it was going for, even if the productions a bit wonky and visual effects aren’t great. I saw some other people say this, and I honestly couldn’t agree more; it’s one of the best bang for your bucks of Disney Channel. Almost a Mean Girls vibe in that the messages are similar, but the whole theme of the movie is that you should be you and if other people can’t accept that you don’t have to change at all and that the people who will drag you down shouldn’t matter to you anyways. Overall, Adam DiMarco and Debby Ryan make it a must-watch. Even if you don’t like it, it’s something you should definitely experience at least - it’s hard to explain… guess you’ll have to see it to find out!!

LOL, the funniest 1.5 hours ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See more Pedro G 10/18/2021 Normalita película, una cinta que veía de chico y que recordaba un poco mejor. Debby Ryan hizo un gran trabajo al interpretar a una chica tímida y marginada, me parece que es lo mejor de la película ya que las otras actuaciones no son muy buenas sinceramente. Luego, los discursos de Radio Rebel también fueron muy inspiradores. Mi único problema con esta película es que tiene muchas cosas sin sentido que si no fuera una película de Disney no serían así. Sin embargo no se si la volvería a ver. En conclusión, es una buena película para chicos que entretiene y nada mas, pero por lo menos pasas un buen rato. La recomiendo. See more 06/30/2021 Radio Rebel take inspiration from some notable DCOMs and manages to breathe life in to the classic story of not being afraid to show the world you are not invisible. The ability to use the charm and synergy the cast radiates and uses it to further the story. See more Read all reviews
