Pretty good movie. Brit can act.
I know this might go against some opinions, but I think Britney did a really good job in this movie. She has some great emotional scenes and she pulls them off really well. The movie is pretty good too.
shareMe too. I liked it.

lol stop being an as*hole
shareIt is a pretty good movie. People just hated it so much because they hate Britney Spears. Back in 2005 I hated her too, and when this movie came on the TV, I flipped the channel. But I just recently finish watching the entire movie, and I have to say it's not a bad movie at all. Britney can act.
The only way to a person's heart is through their chest.
I agree. I never intended to see this in a theater. I had a lazy day sitting around and this came on Showtime. It was a "couldn't find the remote" event, so I jelled and kept it on. I had ZERO expectations, considering it simply a Britney vanity project. I was surprised that it was better than I would have given it credit for. Sure, it was cheesey, predictable, and familiar, but I thought it was well cast and, for what it was, well directed (although the version of Joan Jett's I Love Rock and Roll was atrocious.)
The pleasant surprise was Britney's acting. She could do the role, and she shared it well with Saldana (by far the best actress among the leads) and Taryn Manning, who for me was the real discovery in this film.
I gave this a lazy chance and wasn't disappointed. It was a couple hours of harmless fun, and I'll choose this over any Michael Bay flick any day. I understand how this is a guilty pleasure, along the lines of Coyote Ugly and Bring It On as discussed on another thread. Those films aren't masterpieces, but they are good eye candy and entertaining.
Britney Haters need to give her a break.
Open the pod bay doors, Hal.
It was definitely a vanity peoject but I felt Britney did good in it, I was very impressed by the bathroom scene where she talks about what her mother said to her
Clark Kent + Lois Lane 4ever
DC Can Suck It
it's not a bad movie at all. if you don't feel bad when lucy admits her mom said she never wanted her, you're heartless. lol
shareIt was NOT Joan Jett's "I Love Rock and Roll" it was The Arrow's "I Love Rock and Roll." Preceded Jett by a few years. She just covered it.
shareOh please, whenever anyone thinks of that song they think of Joan Jett. You probably bring that bit of useless info up every time someone refers to the song as Jett's. She made it what it is just like Whitney turned I Will Always Love You into a hit even though Dolly Pardon's version is the original.

Dolly's version is so much better than Whitney's. All Whitney did was cover it and add a bunch of vocal gymnastics. It was a hit for her (you got to give her credit for that), but it will never be truly her song. Just like a remake is never truly the new directors film. I agree btw that everyone thinks of Joan Jetts version when it comes to I Love Rock and Roll and I think she's awesome, but it was kinda a lazy cover, and the original group deserves credit for the song. share
