ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.
ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
SnoopyStyle Brittany Aarons (Danielle Panabaker) is a squealing teenage girl living in the suburbs. She is in love with pop star Jordan Cahill (Taran Killam). Natasha Kwon-Schwartz (Brenda Song) is a new girl in school after a couple of years in Europe. Brittany is quickly attracted to Natasha's worldly life as she hides her Jordan Cahill love. Brittany accidentally switch phones with Jordan when Eddie (Ryan Belleville) drops the phone during Jordan's video shoot. The girls start to have a bit of fun with Jordan's phone.There is some attempts at making fun of the unanimity and the lack of originality in the suburbs. There are good barbs that are wasted on this teen girl movie that is practicing exactly that. There is little originality or any interesting characters. Brenda Song is playing the cooler edgier girl which kind of says it all. She and Panabaker are fine as teen girls. Taran Killam is not a pop star and doesn't have that vibe. He's probably the biggest problem ... other than the constant squealing.
anne-freaks I'm shocked upon this "in-depth" analysis of teenage mind. Thank you Hollywood. Again. It's true that i'm getting used already to the fact that writers actually think that every teenage girl is mental handicapped however it still makes me mad sometimes. Like in this case. I saw only the half of the movie but it was more than enough. I tell you what i saw. There were 50 chicks (each was around 14) running hysterically after a pig looking kid with coloured hair (when i first looked at it i thought there was guano on his head - you know being at a square with doves around is dangerous) who is a musician in the film however he still didn't make an effort to move his left hand to pretend that he is playing on a guitar. Pretty amazing, really. And the story is missing also. If there's anybody who feels entertained just by looking at children who are screaming and jumping around in crazy pink clothes after an ugly boy with no neck and with a guitar please tell me. (Exception: If you're a pervert i just don't want to know about it.) God, this whole film was so stupid. My illness which made me watch this movie amuses me better.
bananaannah My daughter loved your movie and wanted me to tell you that the absence of drinking, smoking, and drugs is really great. Thanks for making good family oriented entertainment. She is currently working on a Girl Scout badge called 'High on Life', which asked her to view three shows/movies and rate their quality based on the presence/absence of all references to drinking, smoking, and drugs. Your movie was one of her favorite choices. She would like you to know that she can't wait until you make another movie that is free from substance abuse. Here's an idea for the next movie... please make the next one about an eleven year old girl that has three older and one younger brother and a younger sister.
Lucy in the sky In short this movie was awful.I understand it's a Disney movie, which are generally shallow movies with mediocre plots and bad acting. HOWEVER, i must say this is the worst of all Disney movies, with bad acting, LOTS OF IRRITATING SHRIEKING TEEN GIRLS(my god), and an extremely unrealistic plot. Even as a 12 year old there is no way i would have liked this movie. The only way this movie could have been any worse is if they attempted to put it in theaters or tried to sell it in a local video store. Do yourself a favor and change the channel before watching this, no matter how bored you are on a Sunday afternoon.
