Troy Bolton and Gabriella Montez are two totally different teenagers who meet at a party while singing karaoke on New Year's Eve. The next week, Troy returns to East High, his high school in New Mexico, to find that Gabriella is a new student there. They quickly become close friends and accidentally audition for the school musical. They both get callbacks, infuriating drama queen Sharpay Evans and her sidekick brother Ryan. Then Chad, Troy's best friend and basketball teammate, and Taylor, Gabriella's new friend on the decathlon team, must make Gabriella hate Troy. —ShannonO'Reilly

Trivia
The movie was filmed at East High School in Salt Lake City, Utah. Students still use Sharpay's pink locker.

Goofs
When Sharpay storms into the girls' bathroom to track down Gabriella, she walks past where Gabriella is hiding behind the wall. The camera also shows that there is no adjacent room behind that wall. When Sharpay turns to walk back out, there is no way that Gabriella could not have been seen by Sharpay as she would be in her line of vision.

Quotes
Gabrilla Montez: [about singing previously] Well, you sound like you've done a lot of singing, too.
Troy Bolton: Yeah, my showerhead is very impressed with me.

Crazy credits
After the end credits, Sharpay runs back into the gym and runs up to Zeke and hugs him, saying she loves his cookies and wants him to make more for her.

Alternate versions
A sing-along version was aired the day after its television premiere, with the words to the songs appearing at the bottom of the screen.

9/10

good

This was a overall good movie by the Disney Channel's standards! I, being 18 years of age and sitting at home on a Friday night to watch it, am happy to say I sat through the entire thing happily! This movie is for adults and kids and also brought me back to high school even though it was only a year ago! The music brings meaning to the story and without it the movie wouldn't be complete which is why it is called High School Musical! I hope everyone who sees it enjoyed it as much as I did!! If Disney keeps up at this rate all the new actors and actress, singers and everyone will be the new product of them! Look at Hillary Duff, Lindsay Lohan, Raven, and many others! This movie has a few soon to be rising stars in it! Good job Disney!!
