This is one of those movies, like Center Stage, where you have to see the PREVIEWS, only once, and you'll know how the entire movie will go. I remember reading this article where JB was complaining that the only reason she hadn't gotten Mena Suvari's part in American Beauty was because she had a "nice girl" reputation from 7th Heaven, and the producers or directors or whoever was turned off by that. Yes, Jessica, keep telling yourself that. And in the meantime, grab ahold of whatever crappy role is actually offered to you, overact the hell out of it and say that proves your point.
Which is clearly what she did. I don't know where FP Jr. wants his career to go, but he better stay away from these types of movies or he's never going to be able to do anything else. It may be too late already. I would like to say that while he is in no way Oscar material, I've usually enjoyed his performances. However, he really needs to start actually finding out what the movie is about before he signs onto it. By the way, am I the only one who thinks that his "romance" with Sarah Michelle Gellar is a total lie?
Amd Matthew Lillard does in this movie what he always does--provide some much needed comic relief. I like that guy. But, with the exception of Scream, it would appear that no one wants to put him in a movie unless they can put FPJ in it...which is odd to me, cause ML is the better actor of the 2, in my opinion.
I didn't say much about the movie because anyone who has heard of this movie, whether they've seen it or not, knows the entire story.
5/10, and I'm being generous...just thankful that Tenley Parrish was not played by Jennifer Love Hewitt.
