Title: Soundtrack's better than the movie.
Product review: Based upon recommendations, I actually bought the soundtrack to "Camp" before seeing the movie. And because I did that, I can strongly recommend the soundtrack - and cannot particularly recommend the film because, oddly, the kids in the film are at their best when they're singing."Here's Where I Stand," the power ballad performed by Tiffany Taylor and written specifically for the film, is an excellent and moving piece of music. Also good are the opening track "How Shall I See You Through My Tears, "For the Want of a Nail" and the Sondheim booze-induced and sarcastic piece called "The Ladies Who Lunch."As for Victoria Williams song "Century Plant," it's a bit different (particularly in an album filled with showtunes), but it fits, however oddly. It's fun to hear over and over.I was less impressed by Daniel Letterle's songs, particularly the bland "I Sing for You."All in all, it's good.
