No, but he seems really natural and believable with his dialogue. It felt like the kind of acting you usually see in a low-budget indie film than a Disney musical. Obviously he then started dancing and that wasn't indie at all but, to be fair, he's a pretty amazing dancer too.

None of this made the film any less annoying, and EVERYONE else in the film did that dreadful Disney/Hollywood wooden and over dramatised acting. He stood out though and he has real potential to be a high quality star.

I mean it's not like he's going to do High School Musical-esque films forever. He will do more serious roles and, somewhere down the line, he'll probably win an oscar.
