Original Movie Avalon High

.........We think that the movie had a great element of surprise. We were fooled the entire time thinking one thing was going to happen, but in the end it was something completely different than we expected! We think the movie was the perfect length, but we would have liked to have seen a bit more Medieval fighting on the beach at the end of the movie...........

 

We watched the new Disney Channel Original Movie “Avalon High” tonight (November 12) and we really liked it! It was fun to watch Gregg Sulkin play the part of Will in the movie without his British accent – that must have taken a lot of practice! We also really loved the actress Brittany Robertson playing Allie.

In the movie Allie and her parents move to a new location and Allie begins school at Avalon High. It turns out Avalon High isn’t just a normal school – it’s special because it is the place where King Aurthur’s Court will happen again and stories from Medieval times will repeat.

You can tell this is about to happen since the very beginning of the movie, when you are introduced to all of the main characters, including Miles (Merlin), Lance (Lancelot) and Jen (Genevieve).

We think that the movie had a great element of surprise. We were fooled the entire time thinking one thing was going to happen, but in the end it was something completely different than we expected! 

We think the movie was the perfect length, but we would have liked to have seen a bit more Medieval fighting on the beach at the end of the movie. The evil character seemed to be defeated a bit too fast and we would have liked to see the battle last a bit longer.

Apart from that we think that the Medieval elements fit in nicely with the everyday events and that the characters all interacted well together. We love the relationship that developed between Will and Allie – we were rooting for them from the beginning! We also love how close of friends Allie and Miles became!

We’ve heard from many fans that the movie may be a bit different than the book it is based on, by Meg Cabot. If you have read the book and seen the DCOM “Avalon High” be sure to comment in the comments section and let us know what the similarities and differences are.
