the only character i didn't like...


Luigi Largo

a horrible actor. his goal was to be a bitter and hot-tempered guy. he was waaaay over the top.

but i looved everyone else. i keep youtubing all the songs over and over again because they're so good

I really disliked Shilo. I think her actress was casted for her beauty and innocent-looking face. She was so unlyrical.

Agree with disliking Shilo. I know we are supposed to feel sorry for her but she seems like a real spoilt brat.

To the original poster: I kinda like the over the top acting. I have a feeling that if it wasn't over the top we wouldn't really look at him as the comic relief because he wouldn't be a MURDERER!!!!! he'd be a murderer. Not exactly someone to find funny. Similarly with Pavi. Rapist? Dude so not funny. Face-stealing narcissistic rapist? Yea the 'rapist' just blows off.

I thought the actress was a good singer... but whether if it was her acting choices, the way she was directed, or the script in general SHE WAS JUST ANNOYING

I agree with the OP.

Luigi was TERRIBLE. Every time he was on screen I winced. And I caught the actor "acting" over and over again.

I understand he was supposed to be crazed, but gah! It was just so bad. Easily the worst performance in the movie.

Heh, Luigi was my favourite of the Largo kids. I thought he was awesome. Shilo was much more annoying. And Amber and Pavi weren't as cool as Luigi.

I TOTALLY agree with OP. Luigi's acting was DISGUSTINGLY annoying..everytime he came on screen, I would wince a little. Even Paris Hilton had better acting (although to be quite honest, her acting wasn't all that bad in this movie anyway).
