Teen Beach Movie

Brady and McKenzie (Mack) are surfing near her grandfather's beach hut in Waikiki. Mack then walks in on her grandfather and Brady watching their favorite film, a 1960s musical titled Wet Side Story, where surfers and motorcycle bikers battle for the privilege to hang out at Big Momma's beachside restaurant. When Mack's aunt comes by, she explains to Brady that before her mother died, Mack's aunt promised Mack's mom that Mack would attend a private school, and she is leaving the next day. Mack asserts that although going is not her choice, she feels it is what she has to do since it is what her mother would want. She tells Brady they will have to break up.

Before Mack leaves, she decides to surf a 40-foot wave that is about to hit the beach on her family's special surfboard. Alarmed, Brady gets on a jet ski and goes after Mack, but they both get swept away, eventually landing on another beach. They soon realize that they have somehow been swept inside the Wet Side Story film. Seizing the moment, Brady joins the film's cast in singing, to Mack's dismay. Brady relents and informs Mack that there will be a storm and giant wave that should bring them back home at the end of the film. They go into Big Momma's and introduce themselves to the surfers just before the bikers appear and start the surf and turf war. Mack and Brady are then invited to come to a party at Big Momma's later that night.

That evening, Mack and Brady are arguing while the film's female lead, Lela (one of the biker girls), is singing on stage. Tanner, the male lead (one of the surfer boys), falls in love with Mack after she bumps into him, and Brady catches Lela when she falls off the stage. This interferes with the film's plot, in which Lela falls into Tanner's arms, not Brady's. They decide to make Tanner and Lela fall in love to fix things. Brady also tells Mack about the villains of the film, Les Camembert and Dr. Fusion, who are going to use a machine to affect the weather to make the surfers and bikers leave so they can control Big Momma's and turn it into a beach resort.

Lela and Tanner express their love for Brady and Mack, who subtly suggest to them that there may be someone else they are really meant to be with. That night Mack joins Lela and the other biker girls for a sleepover, while Brady hangs out with Tanner and the surfer boys at Big Momma's. While talking about love, Brady and Mack's modern relationship views come into conflict with those of the 1960s; they fail to make any progress on getting Lela and Tanner together. The next night, Lela tells Mack that she would like to surf.

Mack and Brady realize that they are morphing into the film when Mack falls into the water and her hair does not get wet. They then begin to spontaneously sing and are unable to stop. They are then captured by Les Camembert and Dr. Fusion and taken to the villains' lighthouse lair.

Lela and Tanner fall in love with each other and soon realize that their friends have been kidnapped. They convince the bikers and surfers to team up and save Mack and Brady. Meanwhile, Mack admits that she is glad that she ended up in the film and does not have to attend private school. When Mack says she thinks Lela is braver than her, Brady denies that, saying that Mack is the bravest girl he knows.

The surfers and bikers free Mack and Brady and destroy the villains' machine. The film's plot returns to normal, and Mack and Brady realize they are able to return home. After saying goodbye to everyone, Mack and Brady get on the surfboard and returns to the real world, where no time has passed since they left. Mack successfully surfs the 40-foot wave. Mack's aunt is upset about her delaying their flight but accepts her decision to spend the rest of the year with Brady. Mack and Brady celebrate by singing on the beach.

In a post-credits scene, Lela, Tanner, Butchy, Seacat, Cheechee and Giggles wash up into the real world. A modern-day surfer thinks they are lost and allows them to use his cell phone, which they marvel at as they attempt to use it.

The script was written by Vince Marcello, Mark Landry and Robert Horn, from a story by Marcello and Landry. Pre-production of the film began in January 2012. Teen Beach Movie was the third Disney Channel Original Movie filmed in Puerto Rico, the first two being Princess Protection Program and Wizards of Waverly Place: The Movie.

On March 28, 2012, local Puerto Rican press reported on the filming, which took place on the island. Most beach scenes took place in Fajardo on the east coast of the island, including the beach house of the Governor of Puerto Rico, while indoor scenes, such as McKenzie's bedroom, a restaurant, and a kitchen, were filmed inside an undisclosed warehouse in Bayamón. Mariella Pérez Serrano, who was executive director of the Puerto Rico Film Corporation at the time, said Disney had spent about eight million dollars to film the production in Puerto Rico when the film was titled Teen Beach Musical at the time.

The film's soundtrack features ten original songs composed in rhythms of surf rock, Motown R&B, rockabilly and pop.

Teen Beach Movie was the only Disney Channel Original Movie that was released in 2013.{{Citation needed|date=March 2020}}

The film was dedicated to beach party film star Annette Funicello, who died on April 8, 2013. A memorial message preceding the start of the film read, "In memory of Disney legend Annette Funicello, the world's most beloved beach movie star."{{Citation needed|date=March 2020}}

Mike Hale of The New York Times stated that Teen Beach Movie represents Disney Channel's attempt to recapture the success of High School Musical with a high-concept story involving time travel and a 1960s beach movie. Hale found the film's numerous references and influences—ranging from Grease and Back to the Future to Glee and Bride of Frankenstein—to be somewhat derivative but noted that its clever premise and occasional humor make it entertaining, particularly for its target audience.{{cite news |last1=Hale |first1=Mike |date=July 18, 2013 |title='Teen Beach Movie' Goes Back to the Future |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2013/07/19/arts/television/teen-beach-movie-goes-back-to-the-future.html |access-date=April 13, 2024 |work=The New York Times}} Emily Ashby of Common Sense Media gave the film a score of four stars out of five, saying that while tweens, drawn by familiar Disney stars like Ross Lynch, will enjoy the film's nostalgic, comedic, and romantic elements, parents will appreciate its family-friendly narrative that promotes individuality, self-awareness, and positive relationships.{{cite web |last1=Ashby |first1=Emily |title=Teen Beach Movie |url=https://www.commonsensemedia.org/movie-reviews/teen-beach-movie |access-date=April 13, 2024 |website=Common Sense Media}}

Brian Lowry of Variety found that while the film includes inventive moments and lively musical sequences, the narrative between these numbers can feel lackluster. Lowry noted that Disney's extensive marketing effort aims to replicate the success of High School Musical, with the film itself serving as part of a larger promotional strategy.{{cite web |last=Lowry |first=Brian |date=July 14, 2013 |title=Review: "Teen Beach Movie" |url=https://variety.com/2013/tv/reviews/teen-beach-movie-review-1200562254/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130716033908/http://variety.com/2013/tv/reviews/teen-beach-movie-review-1200562254/ |archive-date=2013-07-16 |access-date=July 14, 2013 |work=Variety}} Entertainment Weekly gave the film a C grade, saying "The good news?
