Starstruck: Extended Edition

StarStruck, a hit Disney Channel Original Movie, will debut on DVD June 8, 2010 with more movie and music -- available in two ways: as a single DVD or a 2 disc set that includes the DVD+ Full Length Soundtrack CD. Each exciting release contains a never-before-seen exclusive extended scene and additional music with eight Rock-Along tracks and three music videos. The 2 disc set includes the DVD, plus the Walt Disney Records CD soundtrack with chart-climbing songs performed by stars Sterling Knight and Brandon Mychal Smith (“Sonny With A Chance”) among others. Both products (the DVD and 2-disc DVD+CD) will be available in stores June 8, 2010 from Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment (WDSHE).

StarStruck, a music and adventure-filled romp that hits all the right notes for kids and tweens, tells the story of Jessica Olson (Danielle Campbell, Prison Break) and her older sister Sara (Maggie Castle, Time Traveler’s Wife), who are heading to Hollywood from Kalamazoo, Michigan, on a family trip to visit their grandmother. Sara is obsessed with pop star Christopher Wilde (Sterling Knight, Sonny with a Chance) and hopes to track him down while in California, but Jessica could care less about the stuck-up star and would rather go sightseeing. When the sisters arrive in L.A. Sara takes Jessica on a hunt to find Christopher and a chance meeting with the star sets off a series of comic adventures that feature many of L.A.’s landmark locations. As the sisters sightsee and spend time together, Jessica gets to know the real Christopher and soon their friendship grows. Ultimately Christopher must decide what is more important -- being himself or becoming a movie star. Disney Channel stars Brandon Mychal Smith (Sonny With a Chance) and Chelsea Staub (JONAS) also star as Christopher’s loyal best friend and fame- hungry girlfriend, respectively.

The ‘out of this world’ bonuses featured on the StarStruck: Extended Edition DVD include:
• Extended version of the movie - only available on DVD
• More Music with eight Rock-Along tracks to sing-along with!
• Three Hot Music Videos

StarStruck was #1 in its time slot among kids ages 6-11 and tweens ages 9-14, and was the most watched February original movie premiere in total viewers. StarStruck: The Extended Edition DVD is the only way to get the exclusive content not aired on TV. A modern day Cinderella story, StarStruck promotes strong messages about honesty, humility, self-acceptance, and strength of character.

I kind of love modern-day Cinderella stories and this one was pretty cute. The love story was believable and very sweet.

While it's a fairly typical Disney story, it's very watchable. The actors are quite talented and we all really enjoyed the musical scenes.

If you like Sonny with a Chance (I'm a fan. I admit it), you'll enjoy seeing Sterling Knight and Brandon Mychal Smith in this movie. Check it out!
