Review of Frenemies

Frenemies (2012 TV Movie)
1/10
Really Disney?
9 April 2012
Warning: Spoilers
This movie shows that Disney writers are really running out of ideas. This movie is really three short films featuring three clichés stuffed into one movie. Each part would have made a good movie by itself. But together, the stories were awkwardly crammed together and didn't transition well.

The first part is about a boy whose frenemy is his dog. He and his dog have a "fight" because the boy's girlfriend tricked the dog into flushing the boy's prized award. This part was the best and wasn't as much of a cliché. It just didn't seem as good overall.

The second part is about two girls who run their own fashion blog. Their friendship breaks apart because only one of them is asked to be an executive at a huge fashion company. The whole "friends competing for one job" has been done too many times already. I could already see how the fight would resolve from the moment it started. They also pulled the cliché "we're best friends and not even you can pull us apart" thing.

The third part is the worst of all in my opinion. It's the classic "Prince and the Pauper" act. But the Prince and the Pauper has already been redone in several TV shows and movies. I was so bored with this movie by this point that it became background noise by this point. I tuned back in to see that they somehow all saw each other at the dance.

Save yourself the time and watch something else. It's an absolutely awful movie.
