I was a highschool freshman, the first ever made-for-TV MTV movie was being premiered, was there any doubt that I was going to watch it even though it was about a boyband? No, not at all. While I figured it would be terrible, I watched it anyway, mostly because I was in that 15 year old tool stage where I still cared what girls thought, instead of just ruffying them.I was GREATLY surprised. This movie knocked me off of my feet. From the hilarious songs, to Kevin Farley as a member of the band, I laughed the entire time. If you have never seen it, I pity you, as it does not look as though MTV will ever release it to DVD. Your best bet? Go buy the two CD's (one from the Movie, one from the Series) and listen until your CD player explodes.Is this the best movie ever? Quite possibly so.

A lot of people have been commenting on the idea that producers can simply pump out boy bands by getting five guys that can sing pretty well and have the right personalities. MTV was the first to actually come out and make a movie about it. 2gether is a movie about a manager that is fired from his original managing job (managing another boy band call Woah) who must put together another band within a week. He has a theory that you need five personalities in your standard boy band: the heartthrob, the shy one, the older brother, the bad boy, and the little guy. He goes around to different places trying to find theses characters and still have time to teach them the songs and dance moves.The movie does a wonderful job showing how easy it would be to put together a band considering the fact that sometimes he just runs into people that would be perfect for the job. The movie is shot as if they wee making a documentary about the band. Sometimes the characters talk to the camera and when a new person is introduced a computer generated screen pops up giving us their profile. Despite all of the rush, the guys turn out great by the time of their big performance.

SPOILERS AHEAD! Very funny movie! The script is very well-written, the songs are catchy (A bit TOO catchy), and the actors do pretty good, even though most are complete unknowns. Boy-bands really need a good spoofing and Saturday Night Live has done that too, with a fake band "Seven Degrees Celsius". This movie spoofs it, while pleasing boy-band haters and not offending boy-band lovers.2Gether is the story about the formation of a boy-band. Bob Buss (Alan Blummenfeld) has just gotten fired from his job with the hottest boy-band "Whoa!" and hears Jerry O'Keef (Evan Farmer, who was an extra in Shaft) and decides he should use him. Then he finds Chad (Noah Bastian) and Doug (Kevin Farley, brother of Chris). Then he finds Mickey (Alex Solowitz) and then Q.T. (Michael Cuccione). All the while, they talk to the camera since this is a "Mock-umentary"Bob has a rule for every celebrity ("My John Travolta rule: You go up and you go down") and is very funny. Kevin Farley could have a huge future, just like his brother Chris. Now all they need is a spoof of singing Valley Girls (Brittany Spears, I'm looking at you) ***1/2 out of ****

This movie is *very* funny. MTV did an awesome job with this movie. There's an awesome cast. Noah Bastian plays 'Chad Linus' the 'Shy One', Alex Solowitz plays 'Mickey Parke' the 'Bad Boy', Evan Farmer plays 'Jerry O'Keefe' the 'Hearthrob', Michael Cuccione plays 'Jason "QT" McKnight' the 'Dewey Eyed Youngster', and Kevin Farley (brother of the late Chris Farley) plays 'Doug Linus'(Chad's older brother) the 'Older Brother Type'. This movie is very, very funny. And yes, there WILL be a tv series based on the movie (this has been confirmed by Noah Bastian a.k.a. Chad). The soundtrack to the movie is also great. Oh, and FYI the cast is recording a *2nd* album/soundtrack (whatever you want to call it). Also, they will be opening up for Britney Spears at some of her August concerts. Anyway, the movie is great,.... so, if you like to laugh you gotta see this! This movie is a *buttload* of laughs.... LOL 10/10 A+++
