Reader Reviews
This movie is about three girls who were best friends as children but have grown apart. They are graduating high school and trying ot figure out their futures. Lucy is supposed to go to college in Georgia with a double major in biology and chemistry. Being the perfect child. Mimi has no plans for her future, but she's 5 months pregnat. Kit wants to marry her boyfriend who goes to college in California. So, MImi says she's going to an audition in LA and taking a roadtrip out there. The next morning Kit and Lucy decide to go along for the ride - Kit to see her boyfriend, Lucy to find the mother who abandoned her when she was three. Lots of singing, lots of skin showing to be "sexy" (shoot the movie starts with Spears in briefs and singing in bed). Surprisingly, the acting was fairly good. All the actors/actresses do a good job of portraying teenagers who are in between immaturity and maturity. And they do a great job showing how old friends can become friends once more. However... everything else? Assuming this movie is aimed at Spears' followers, the audience was probably preteens to teens. At the beginning of the movie, it pretty much bashes virgins and that a guy who's a virgin can't make it in college because of the harassement. Spears wants to lose her virginity just cause. Lucy pretty much just runs away from her dad. Mimi's friend Ben, who is driving the car... nobody seems to know anything about him yet they're hitching a ride with him anyway? Everybody thinks he's a murderer, and three teenage girls just hop in the car for a 3000 mile roadtrip!? While on the trip, seatbelts are rarely, if ever, worn. At one point the girls are standing in the backseat singing. The girls get drunk one night, and although Mimi doesn't drink, the movie doesnt seem to be promoting abstaining from alcohol. Then, Lucy and Ben get together after only knowing each other like a week. Granted teenagers do this stuff all on their own, but do we really need a movie advocating it? Because Spears is such an idol to so many young kids, do we really need her promoting these ideas? And plotwise...come on, three girls going across the country for no particular reason at all? Lucy is going to see a mother who pretty much doesnt give a darn about her. Why not CALL her?? Kit is going to visit a boyfriend who doesnt seem to give a darn about her... why not CALL him?? and Mimi is just off to go audition - like you can't audition anywhere in Georgia. Ben..well he just likes California. Anyway, although the acting is okay, the rest of the movie just seems to be about nothing in particular but showing off every wrong thing a teenager can do.
