Movie Reviews of Camp Nowhere
Movie Review: What every kid wants in a summer!
Summary: 5 Stars
When this movie first came onto video i watched over and over again, which at $6 per night hire rate can get very expensive. It was worth it though. Now i am well and truly past the age whereby one can still watch kid's movies, but whenever i have family and friends visiting with kids i make sure i hire it again. its such a great movie. in australia we don't really have summer camps, so its even more exciting to watch for us, that and Nathan Caveleri is in it too (aussie guitarist that survived cancer at a young age).Movie Review: could have been good
Summary: 2 Stars
There was a possibility of a very good movie here with good acting, talented kids, etc. Unfortunately , as in many kids movies these days, the parents are stereotyped as blithering idiots, and the kids have to go it on their own. The cursing gets out of hand for a family movie, and gets worse as the movie continues. I didn't finish watching it. Christopher Lloyd is great though and it does have it's funny moments ( if you had TV Guardian to block all the foul language that is!)Movie Review: the greatest

I've seen this movie a million times and I still love it. IT has such a cute plot jsut the idea goin away for the summer with no parents doin whatever gets u into the summer spiritMovie Review: A review from thirtysomething
Summary: 3 Stars
I have been reading the reviews, most of which are obviously written by teenagers or preteens. My husband, also 30something, tuned into this on cable the other night. and we both sat and watched the whole thing. It's "Lord of the flies" set in modern day, but much more fun to watch.
Christopher Lloyd, best known as "Reverend Jim" on t.v. show Taxi, and "Doc Brown" in the Back to the Future movies is the only known star that shows up in most of the movie. He plays the authority figure throughout the film when the parents' aren't.
It's a "let's see how much we can get away with while the parents aren't looking" movie. and I have to admit, it was pretty cool..Both my husband and i were thinking: That is cool..I wish I could've done that. It's a fantasy for younger teens. Basically, some rich kids pool all their summer camp money together and create their own fantasy camp and their parents think that they are all at the camps they were originally supposed to go to for the summer: fat camp, computer camp, drama camp.. instead, it's just 'HAVE FUN ALL SUMMER camp..OR Camp Nowhere at some run down land that Lloyds' character finds.
The teens all come together and help Lloyd from going to jail.
It's a cute little film that certainly isn't one of the most classic of the teen genre, but certainly is entertaining enough.
A lot of silliness goes on, and eventually chaos!!! the parents want parents day..of course, they have to get caught eventually, right?
check it out...
Movie Review: No adults allowed!
