IGN
If your kid loves High School Musical they are going to want Senior Year Dance, and they're probably going to love it because it has Troy and Gabriella and Sharpay and everybody else.

Variety
Target kiddie audience will enjoy mixing-and-matching characters in ways never seen onscreen, as well as creating their own East High Wildcat, but will quickly get frustrated with the game's core "dancing" mechanic that's really just flailing with the Wii's wireless controller.

Kai gave it a2:
Firstly, games made from movies suck as a general rule. Secondly, High School Musical is a shallow movie with stupidly bad music. Thirdly, Disney Interactive Studio's have never made an outstanding game (excluding Kindom Hearts, but that was practically made by Square Enix).Why mix the three together? It's madness! Just because some little kids who like the musical think its a good game doesn't make it so.

Frank M. gave it a9:
I bought one each of this game for my two sisters’ kids, 8 year old Kiki and 11 year old Chloe and they absolutely love the game. The graphics are crisp and colorful, and the game characters look like actual stars, which I found to be amazing. The art for the locations, I was told by my nieces, look just like the movie. Now for the admission: I tried the game out as well at my nieces prodding’s, and found it to be a kick in the pants--I actually had fun. The two player experience had us cracking up as we battled back and forth. I’m not a big fan of over commercialization, but this game does not just milk the High School Musical franchise, but brings the experience to the family room. The world needs more family friendly, fun, high-quality entertainment like this game. I give it two thumbs up.

Hoy D. gave it a9:
This is a fun game for the family. it lets you relive moments from the HSM movies, and you can sing along with your friends. The graphics are pretty good for a wii game, and its easy to learn. Also the vfx are amazing!
