I think Lindsay Lohan, who seems to be Disney's current teen-gal of the moment, is a pretty good actress. Her comic timing is great (as she showed in Freaky Friday), and in this movie we get to see that she's not a bad singer and dancer, too. Unfortunately, this particular film just didn't have any sparkle for me. Lindsay plays a New York gal who moves to New Jersey and tells some lies to make new friends and seem interesting, and then the story becomes The Boy Who Cried Wolf when her dream of meeting her rock star idol comes true and no one believes her. A rock production of My Fair Lady is thrown in for good measure, along with the typical bitchy girl, who is actually so mean that I got sick of watching her! Disney tries to make this a "dreams come true" movie, but there's just no depth to the characters - maybe there were too many pop hits in the background to distract me. On the plus side, it's still a fast-paced movie that's fairly fun, and Lindsay's tops get tighter and tighter in each scene. She's a little too Peppermint Patty to be as cute as Hilary, but I'll have to admit she probably has a little more real talent. Now they just need to give her some better movies to make!Labels: dvds
