Maidgethma Wonderfully offbeat film!

Dorathen Better Late Then Never

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

PoisonKeyblade Okay, first of all let me say that the only reason I wanted to see this movie was so that I could see Justin Timberlake in one of his earliest performances. This movie was terrible. The plot? Terrible. The main character? Horribly fugly, annoying, terrible. The acting? Aside from Justin Timberlake's brief appearance, terrible. The pacing? Choppy, terrible. The directing? Awful.This movie was such a huge waste of time. I liked some of the cameos a lot, but it is all wasted in a very uninteresting and boring crappy movie that tries to be intelligent in many ways and fails considerably badly in all of them. The plot was contrived and the characters were all hollow shells. The whole gangster plot element, and a bunch of other nonsensical plot elements were annoying for the most part. NEVER see this movie. It simply gets a 1/10 for the presence of Justin Timberlake. Horrible, horrible, horrible. Did I mention it was horrible?

Peter Saxe One of those so bad it's funny movies...There's no point in even pretending to take this movie seriously...It is what it is..It's about cute guys!!! Cute guys!! and the exploitation of the junk music that they sing..To think that Lou Pearlman, that sleaze, probably had his way with most of the boy-band kids in this movie, since he created them... from NSYNC to O-Town.. the entire Transcontinental family of boy bands... I swear, if I was a rich, sleazy, fat slob who lusted after teen young men... that's how I'd get them... I'd start a management company to develop boy bands.. I can see it now ("sure, you're talented, but so are other guys who don't mind making an old man happy from time to time..... now think about how much you want that musical career.... so sign the contract, so I will promote you to death, work you to death.. and take All your money..... and I will own you....)I still can't believe that NSYNC participated in this... weren't they beyond things like this in 2000? Didn't they already separate from Lou Pearlman by then....? Or did this movie trigger all the "get me out of here" lawsuits...One cameo after another featuring bad puns related to that person's career..Longshot is what it is... a bad movie that doesn't pretend to be what it's not

brighteyesbeam this movie is painfully funny, a ridiculous plot, that i won't give justice by explaining and a cast of "the pearlman pals" a.k.a any popular pop band of 2000, not to mention washed up celebs (that guy from kc and the sunshine band, kenny roastin rodgers, and jermaine not that famous jackson), but the greatest cameo of all is the rock in his breakthrough role as a mugger, a mugger who is decimated by a 18 year old boy with a pony tail, it's just histarical, rent this movie with no hope at all, but if you want to just laugh a brutal laughter buy it. 10 out of 10 and i'm not even on drugs.

sexxy_karebear007 Oy... I just saw this movie a little while ago and I could not believe how horrible it was! Generally I rented it to see the cameos by O-Town and NSync, but relented and watched the whole thing... I can not believe how bad it was!!!!! Lou Pearlman made a cameo appearance in the movie and I think that was a horrible idea... The fact that he had to be in the movie he funded and had his bands plugging it and cameoing in it was bad enough but combine that with bad acting and a horrible script, and you've got the worst movie I've ever seen... I would only recommend it if you want to see that stuff. Or unless you want to see short cameo appearances of Justin Timberlake as a valet, Britney Spears as a flight attendant and O-Town as, well, O-Town and we can't forget the dangling phone cords of Erik and Ashley as the salesmen of "Longshot" which Trevor orders..... Well you get the point... Bottomline: DON'T BOTHER!
