I admit I have seen this film and I hang my head in shame! I first heard about this film while in college and the damning from critics it was getting. As the eternal optimist I thought it couldn't be as bad as all that so I rented it from amazon. It wasn't as bad as all that...it was worse! The last pop star to make any decent movies was Elvis Presley, Madonna doesn't count as what she does isn't acting; I dunno what it is but it is definitely not acting. The All Saints girls are brilliant musicians but rubbish actors. It's billed as a comedy but it isn't even funny! Had it had a better script (I could do better) and possibly a better story All Saints might made it big in the movie industry as well as the music one. This movie is worse than Showgirls (thats something coming from me!) Don't rent/buy it!

When I first heard that the Appleton sisters were going to be in a movie, I immediately thought about the atrocious "Spice World". I thought that the plot for the movie would be just an excuse to exploit the All Saints fame. How wrong I was.To the heck with all the black comedy concept and "action" sequences; to be Honest, I watched it for the T&A factor. I don't feel any shame to admit it.This movie is all about the sexy Appleton sisters getting naked and performing steamy sex scenes. You can forget about the rest of the movie.Seriously, if you watch this one for it's plot and character development you will be disappointed big time. But if you watch it for the sexy sisters you will have a great time for sure!.It's not a very popular movie for obvious reasons; bad acting, lame script, and editing. But if you can, watch it when it airs on cable.

I went to see this film with my girlfriend.. Although she's a fan of ALL SAINTS.. I thought I'd treat her to see this film.. I must admit, after ten minutes into the film.. I started to get bored and wanted to fall asleep.OK, so Dave Stewart maybe in the director's chair.. but his biggest mistake was directing a film that had no sense.. Pure pappy-show!Well anyway, by the end of the film.. I looked at my girlfriend.. and from the look of her face.. She was surely cheesed off with the film..It was a total thumbs down for the both of us.. We felt that the ALL SAINTS singers should stick to singing..But these days now, we don't usually hear about the Appleton Sisters.. Melanie Blatt, well? I guess she's still gtting back into singing.. And what about Shaznay Lewis..? I have no idea..Sorry Dave.. But if you want to go back into directing..? Get someone to give a decent script! Totally diabolical 1 out of 10!

This was I film I saw by accident, the film I meant to watch being sold out. As a result I had no preconceptions about it, no prejudice about the leading actresses, which in this case was probably a good thing. The acting of the three pop stars playing the three criminal sisters, Robin Hoods except that they themselves are the poor they give to, is not all that bad, and probably is scrutinized harder than usual because you know they are not really trained actors. The character of Gerry in particular is well played, despite the occasional false note in the cockney accent. They get themselves into trouble with drug dealers and local gangland bosses and drag in an innocent American who falls for Gerry after she assaults him with a life size roughly female and half nude work of art. There are comic moments to keep the film going when the action is thin on the ground, note the rich aristocratic heir who fills his time putting out a 60s subversive magazine. The portrayal of 1960s London and the contrast between those caught in their hippie revolution and those in the East End whose lives seem little changed since the 1940s feels reasonably authentic and is one of the pleasures of the film. One scene of a drug effected festival can give an edge of vertigo. The film touches on a lot of issues through its characters, rich versus poor, traditional versus modern, female equality, but does not explore any of them in any depth. While this may annoy some, I believe many would argue that this is not the point of the film. Overall, do not expect a classic or a memorable impression on your life, but if you are open minded and let yourself simply be entertained then you could well have an enjoyable time watching this.
