oooh. I'm realllly scared if this "movie hates me"... even if it... "double hates me!" AHHH! I don't care. It's a piece of s hit and I would be ashamed to be associated with it in any positive way.

Its Disney, has Hilary Duff in pink with bangles on the promo saluting and is called 'Cadet Kelly', now don't get me wrong I thought this movie was funny and not bad at all but it was advertised for what it is, so you can't really be surprised by what you saw.

Gretchen: You're weird.
Donnie: Sorry.
Gretchen: No, that was a compliment.

I agree. I often hear movies suck and just think people did not interpret them in context. Any light-hearted movie could be considered "sucky" in some points of view, but since some people enjoy light-hearted movies it is best to compare them to similar movies or within genre.

Besides, I would take any "review" with a grain of salt when people cannot articulate WHY a movie is bad. If you can't say why, then it is better (as in more appropriate and accurate) to say it is not your taste.

I agree that this movie is a disgrace. I believe that any movie that features Hilary Duff and Christy Carlson Romano in an adversary relationship is a disgrace. I mean, I like both Hilary and Christy, but they're not fit to play enemies. Plus, I think that Christy sucked in this movie. I mean, I like to think of her as a good actress, but I don't think of her as suitable for villain roles or any role even remotely resembling a villain role. I don't even think of her as capable of playing villains or anything even remotely resembling them. I think they gave her the wrong part in this movie.

No i believe that this movie is watchable, it has a really feel-good quality to it.

I'd choose The Lizzie McGuire Movie over Cadet Kelly any day, but I DID enjoy the drill team antics. I liked watching them and how they spin their guns. I probably wouldn't be able to do that, I can't even twirl a baton.

The acting WAS kind of cheesy and overly dramatic, but that's Disney for you. I thought Christy was pretty decent as the evil Captain Stone. I thought it was refreshing to see her in something other than Even Stevens.

My Dad was a Cadet and he ddin't think it was a dis-grace he said oit's nice that a famouse person is advertising that the military can be fun.
