Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

jacee-16 I absolute love this movie, it is now my favourite of all time. While keeping the plot of the movie similar to that of the book, they have modernised it and made it so much better. All the cast did an excellent job, even Delta although many say she didn't. How Delta portrayed Alison to me was how she was supposed to be.I feel however that with the way the movie ended, there should be a sequel. How Alison's night at the Yurken house went, Barry and Erica's relationship, and most importantly how or if Erica's relationship with her family and the way she views them has changed. I would like to see the wedding of Erica's mum and Lennie. That's why I'm running a petition for a seqeul at the following website. Anyone is welcome sign.http://www.PetitionOnline.com/haas6/petition.htmlThis storyline is just to good to only have one movie on it. So producers if your reading this...please make a sequel. And make sure the actors all remain the same because they were brilliant.

bec-delta-goodrem This is a great Australian movie. The actors and Actresses in it are hilarious and excellent!!! Delta Goodrem and Saskia Burmister are fabulous! There are many jokes and funny comments that people of all ages will enjoy. there are many faces that you will have seen in Different Australian movies/TV shows. It is one of my favorite movies. Probably best suited for 9+ but anyone will enjoy its loving story line of how two very different people can be very much the same!!! DELTA IS AMAZING!! The special features on the DVD are really good- give you a great behind the scenes look on how the movie was filmed and great actor and actress interviews. The music in the film is also great-a lot of it Aussie!!!

ThisLifeArtificial Well I heard a lot about this film, "Delta was wooden" and "Saskia was annoying" but after watching the film, I was pleasantly surprised.Not a classic teen film by any means, but a really enjoyable way to spend your time. It was a refreshing change from the usual teen fare, and it was to nice to see actors who weren't the usual tanned bimbos playing the lead in a film. Giving unknown actors a chance in a low-budget flick that steered away from most of the clichés of the Hollywood teen film.Saskia Burmeister was nothing short of charming in her role as Erica Yurken. Very talented and lit up the screen with her witty acting of the over-dramatic, kooky teen. Delta was really underrated as the titular character giving an understated performance as the so-called 'perfect' Alison Ashley of Erica's mind. Alex Cappelli was also good as the resident bad boy. It was good to see him in a bigger role as I have only seen him previously as a recurring character in 'Neighbours.' The screen is very nearly stolen by the teachers who are absolutely hilarious.In conclusion, HAA was a very funny teen flick and should be given a chance. So the next time you are at your local DVD store and you feel like renting out the next Hollywood teen comedy, do yourself a favour - rent this instead!

drummer-girl When i walked into the cinema i was worried, very worried. Here i was walking into a film adaptation of a book that i have read literally over 30 times, Klein's classic Hating Alison Ashley. Luckily i had prepared myself. I was prepared for the 11 year old story turned into a 14 year old story played by 19 year-olds. I was prepared for the more than likely over-hyped, overrated and very average performance of Delta Goodrem. And thats exactly what i got. But there was a little ray of sunshine in the true lead actor, Saskia Burmeister. Her and Jean Kittson (absolute legend, brilliant in this film) were the reason that i managed to walk into the cinema in the first place. Seeing Saskia in Wicked Science, The Pact and Thunderstruck, she hit me as someone who had a real talent, and here her talent really shines. She basically single handedly saves this film, every scene with Goodrem is saved by her. Her portrayal of Yuk is so beautifully accurately done, that in the end it really doesn't matter about the changes made from the book to the film. She was the reason i enjoyed this film as much as i did, which is amazing cause i managed to give it a 7/10 which considering the close to butchering of the book and goodrem it could've been a lot worse. Apart from the brilliant burmeister, there are some great little performances as well. Kittson of course is at her usual brilliant best, Craig Mclaughlin was a crack up in the small amount of screen time he was given, and even the beefed up role of Barry Hollis (Anthony Carpanelli) was although different to the book, worked an absolute treat in the film.So all in all....Delta stick to what your good at..no wait not even that...go away....Saskia.... get your AFI award speech ready!
