Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
CommentsXp Best movie ever!
TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Java_Joe Aaron Carter was rather popular when he was young. He had a hit single, girls really liked him and his older brother was in one of those boy bands. It looked like his career would never stop. Until it stopped because people realized he wasn't that good. As he grew older the cute kid demographic moved on and so did his career. So the next step was obvious, turn him into a teen heartthrob via movies. Not a great plan as this is the only movie he ever headlined. It's about a popstar which you should have gotten from the title. He's going to go on tour this summer but he's failing math and his mother won't let him. In the real world I don't see this happening but they have to get him back to school somehow and so he must do better in math or else there's no summer tour for him.Of course nobody knows who he is because he's wearing glasses. If it works for Clark Kent it's definitely going to work for him right? I mean it's not like he's the biggest popstar on the face of the planet and girls all over the place have his poster in their rooms or anything. Nah, glasses are fine.Well high school shenanigans ensue. He winds up with a cute girl who's also his math tutor, she finds out who he really is, they fall in love, he passes math and the summer tour is a go. End credits.Sure there's more that goes on but honestly who cares? Aaron Carter can't act and as far as I'm concerned can't sing either. There is literally no reason to see this other than if you're a masochist and love to watch bad movies.
Danii Disaster I do like a cheesy teen movie sometimes, and today I was in that sort of mood. But... what the hell was THIS??? What did I do wrong in my past life to bring this atrocity into my current live!? It was literally unwatchable! The only movie in this genre that I could say is worse than this, is "Pledge This!" with Paris Hilton. And that says a lot, doesn't it? Maybe, since Aaron Carter failed at being a pop-star in real life, he wanted to at least have the chance to ACT like one, but... he can't bloody act! No one in this lame excuse for a movie can.It's not even "so bad it's funny"; it's the opposite - so bad, it's NOT funny.Jeez, how does this kind of horse-s*** get approved to enter the public domain? It should be illegal to release something like this without a suitable warning! I'm not a teen, but I can't imagine how even the dumbest of teens could possibly enjoy something THIS lame... Hell, not even the learning disabled, I don't think.
h_arriet I had heard how awful this movie was, and needless to say, I was not disappointed. The plot rarely made sense, was completely unrealistic, and characters were randomly introduced throughout the film for no apparent reason. The characters left a lot to be desired, they were one dimensional, and, as others have previously mentioned, were not nearly as mean or nerdy as they should have been. The acting was sub-par, to say the least. The female lead seemed to have a sort of speech impediment, which was likely not caused by the obviously fake braces she wore, as braces do not usually affect speech to the extent shown in the film. The music element of the film, especially the concert at the end, was so bad I had to skip through it.What I found hilarious is that the popstar character in this film was taking advice from a rather stoned looking cleaner. Look where these 'words of wisdom' got him- a low-paying job as school cleaner, and an obvious drug problem.I have watched some awful movies, but this is one of the worst I have ever seen. I would recommend this to anyone who likes torture/wants to torture someone, is deaf, or is under the age of 8.
dani_baba Even though i am slightly older than the recommended age group, I really enjoyed this movie. It's a little break from reality and it must be every little girls dream to become friends with a pop star. I know it was mine, to be sure! The first 10 minutes were really cheesy and the mean girls said a few things that were also slightly cheesy. Once you get over that, you can really start to enjoy it. I loved the relationship between JD and Jane - it was really sweet and you could see how much they began to like each other. The soundtrack is perfect and it fits into the film really well. I also liked the family set up for Jane, her sisters seemed lovely. Very well made film.
