For Troy and the Wildcats, the final year of high school has finally arrived, and many of them will go to college. But the last year can not end normally and that's how our protagonists will decide to create a last musical named Senior year, which will be very different from the last facts, all while many of them will question their future and life lores.
Unfortunately, it is coming the end of this trilogy, the magnificent began in 2006, and has had a worldwide success, becoming one of the most beloved musicals ever, despite talk from a few years of a fourth chapter, without the original cast and tv series on the Disney+ arrived this year to the second season. But even if there will be a fourth chapter and the tv series has gone beyond expectations, it will never be nothing in comparison to the trilogy, after the success of the first two chapters of this third act was finally distributed to the cinema, cashing according to the sources, more than $ 180 million worldwide.
A very different film from the previous two also because this time is the last year of high school, and many of them find themselves wondering about their future, and especially Which college to attend the next year among many difficulties that they will have to face to finally enter the world of adults. Troy's future seems now decided to enter the University of Albuquerque where he continues his career as a basketball player and join the Redhawks team, but the boy does not seem completely convinced, also because the singing and acting in his life will never stop existing and the distance from Gabriella would be hard to digest. We say that it seems like the usual speech where the family tries to choose the future of their child but going to quarrel, also because sometimes we children find ourselves in difficulty to find a right future and our parents think of doing good convincing us sometimes on what to invest but making mistakes even more.
In fact Troy will be the only one of the protagonists who does not agree with the choice to continue with basketball only because his father would be happy, and he will decide to contact other universities as well as receive a proposal from one of the universities on the theme of the most famous show in the world: Juilliard. As said all the Wildcats will find themselves in duty for one last time to act in a musical but that this time talks about them and what they want to become after high school; I was glad to finally see a musical that seems in all respects a real theatrical show and not the usual spring musical that we saw in the first chapter. A theme, such as the future of our protagonists is something very difficult, because not knowing what to treat as in previous years is something new for the entire East High and, with the strength and talent of all this musical will be completed with success.
Troy per l'ultima volta capitano dei Wildcats
A lot of news this time where he finally is given a lot more importance to the game to win the championship against the West High Knights in the first chapter, it was passed through the second floor, to see the Wildcats, refit and win for the second consecutive time the championship has been magnificent if then to make it all adds up music, and choreography by applause is to be commended. The great work of director Kenny Ortega, who has continued to make the choreographer for the film, it was really the soul of the story, I think of having to actually say that a director like him deserves much more space in the cinema, always remember that it was also the choreographer of many of the tours of the late king of pop Michael Jackson. A work made of sweat and time to create such a beautiful and overwhelming trilogy.
All of the characters are changed by this for the summer at Lava Springs, and where Gabriella is now ready to enter a college of respect such as Harvard, but still with many unanswered questions, such as, for example, the distance he would have to Troy, and, if Chad directed towards a future as a singer and Taylor also the two lovers ask themselves questions. Aside from finding Chad much more serious than usual, probably the more adult version of Troy's best friend who will never abandon whatever the future may be, a true friendship that is rarely seen and that many should learn. Certainly there are difficulties, and if the real enemy is called Sharpay's all laugh at this, because the girl for the first time, you will be at the center of it all is finally not the usual Sharpay, but above all a Ryan Evans, who continues to be the character that is sensitive to the second chapter that I have appreciated and who wants to detach himself from his sister, more selfish and primadonna.

Finally we also find two new characters who will try to be seen or Jimmi "Rocketman" Zara and Tiara Gold. The first is a silly boy who will do a lot of the gradasso, the other the usual model student who will be Sharpay's assistant but incognito will devise an evil plan; let's say that it finally took a little' new air to the saga that gave that new boost to those who will be the future of East High, Not really worthy The film in some respects much more romantic and more incetrata on the world of adults, we do not find more of the simple teenagers who are striving to sing and dance without knowing how to do this, but that are no longer in trouble in front of a musical, on the other hand, is born the burden of having to continue or abandon the world of music and dance which has left ever. In many aspects, I found many similar scenes to much do chapter as the part where Troy sings Scream to let off steam and look for a remedy against its difficulties, which is very similar to the part where in the second chapter dcanta Bet On It to seek a remedy for his errors; but the songs are so beautiful that these similarities are not seen, the fact that we would never see the end of it all.
La fine di tutto
Even if the scene is returned to East High, with only this type of environment, the film would have worked so well; we find as we could think of a soundtrack that knows how to successful on all fronts, and every song has a reason, from the vent to Scream for Troy to the comeback of the Wildcats with a "Now Or Never", and I could tell the other how beautiful A Night to Remember and one that we can say, it is a dedication to the saga with the High School Musical and many more; there is also the usual little Italian brand with Jacopo Sarno who had played Troy in the Italian theatrical version of the film, to sing cry. An ending that closes a saga that we never wanted to have seen end. but that will always remain in the hearts of all fans and not only.
