This is the second movie
of the High School Musical series. It is
summertime, and Troy, Gabriella, Chad, Taylor and all the others enjoy the last
day of school by singing and dancing.
That evening, Troy gets a call from a very luxurious resort for a part –
time job. That resort was owned by
Sharpay Evans’s parents. She is a rich
spoiled girl.
Sharpay and her twin
brother, Ryan, goes to that resort earlier than Troy. After sometime, Troy comes there, but to
Sharpay’s astonishment, all his friends come behind him. She also found out that Gabriella is the new
lifeguard in their pool. Sharpay wants
only Troy to come to the resort because he sang well and she wanted to sing a
song with him that Kelsi the musician wrote, in the talent show conducted in the
resort and win the Star Dazzler award.
But, when all the others and Gabriella came, Sharpay was sure that Kelsi
would write a song for Troy and Gabriella and both of them would sing and win
the award. So, she told their assistant,
Mr. Fulton, that she had asked him to make a call only to Troy, and not the
others. But, Mr. Fulton tells that it
was the specific order of their mother, Mrs. Evans, to call the others
too. So, Sharpay plans to get rid of the
others by making them hate the place.
At first, Mr. Fulton
assign jobs for everyone in the kitchen, and does not allow anyone to talk to
each other. This continues for a few
days, but Troy and his friends enjoy each day, even though it was tougher than
the previous day.
When Sharpay senses that
Troy needs money for his college funds, she asks her dad to find some famous
basketball players from the University of Albuquerque (U of A) and help
Troy. She also makes Fulton promote Troy
and he no longer works in the kitchen.
After that, he ignored his friends, didn’t share any secrets with
Gabriella, and changed a whole lot. One
day, Gabriella and Chad went to see Troy along with two other friends. Just then, the famous players from the U of A
came to pick up Troy for playing a game with them. So, like this, Troy went on with his own
things and ignored his friends.
Ryan sees all this and
realizes that he was no longer needed for his sister, and went to join with the
Wildcats. He dances really nice, and
choreographs their dance for the show.
Even without Troy, Gabriella and the others enjoy everything. Meanwhile, Kelsi wrote a song for Troy and
Gabriella, ‘You are the music in me’.
One day, Troy finds time and sings it with her. Sharpay hears it and thinks that if both of
them sing, the Star Dazzler Award will go to them, and orders Fulton to tell
them that the show was not for staff, and that they should not
participate.
When she heard this, Gabriella
went up to Sharpay and started telling her how she has changed Troy and how she
was ruining their summer. Sharpay
becomes irritated and leaves. Troy comes
and asks Gabriella what happened. She
tells him the same thing, how he has changed and how he is ignoring
everybody. She also tells that she can’t
take more of this and was going to quit.
She quit her job as the lifeguard and went back home.
That night, Troy did some
thinking about everything. He still doesn’t
know that staff was not allowed to participate in the show, because, Sharpay
never told it to him as she wanted to sing with him. So, she changed the melodious ‘You are the
music in me’ to a rocking version. Troy
was stunned by everything, but still he managed to sing some lines.
One day, at lunch, Taylor
shows Troy the letter that told that staff should not participate. He becomes angry and goes and tells Sharpay
that he is a staff member and staff was not allowed to participate in the
show. Sharpay screams and calls back
Ryan to do their original Hawaiian song, which they had practiced earlier. But Ryan refused.
Troy goes back to the kitchen
and apologizes to everyone for being so selfish and everyone, including Ryan,
reunites. Troy also tells that he was
not singing with Sharpay, but Ryan tells that he should and that Kelsi had
written a new song for them. Troy learns
it quickly and asks Sharpay why she had switched songs. She tells that she did not but Troy does not
listen to it. Sharpay turns to Ryan and
realizes that the Wildcats had planned something else.
Troy goes to the stage and
starts singing. But he was shocked when
he heard Gabriella’s voice instead of Sharpay’s. Gabriella came out from the crowd and both of
them rock the stage. They sing another
song with all the Wildcats, Kelsi and even Sharpay. And at last, Sharpay announced the winner of
the Star Dazzler Award. It was not Troy,
Gabriella or herself. It was her
brother, Ryan Evans, who worked hard to make everything right from the
beginning. This movie also had a lot of
songs, and it made me realize how important friendship is. I liked this movie a lot.
