Pixel Perfect

For the detractors, as MST3K has always advocated, "Repeat to yourself, 'It's just a show, I should really just *relax*.'

I enjoyed this movie, especially with my five-year-old son, who really likes the songs (he sings them while walking around the house). Of course, the typical five-year-old's penchant for watching a new movie meant that I watched this movie four times this past weekend, but I digress.

I concur that this movie is better than the typical Disney-TV-movie-a-tron fare. It's not groundbreaking cinema, but it does tell a story with a decent moral (albeit the moral is laid on thick, like mortar with a trowel), and yes, the acting is good.

I *loved* the search engine, as well as the depiction of being in Samantha's brain.

Perhaps if I was eight, I'd enjoy this movie. Heck, I didn't even know about it until I was channel-flipping and came upon it accidentally. For a Disney movie, I have to admit it was decent, but a hologram is simply an image, nothing more, no matter how much Disney tries to mislead children in thinking that it is a program with feelings. The singing wasn't all that great. In fact, it was obvious the actors were lip-singing, and the acting...was not all that great. It seems to me to have been a copycat Simone. But don't take MY word for it, go see Simone and then watch Pixel Perfect and see the similarities yourself. Overall, this movie is a 1/10 for anyone with a mind, however, if I was braindead I'd give it a 5/10. Definitely not a movie I'd want to see more than once.

This is just a fun movie to watch. Forget that Loretta could never exist (at least not for a LONG time) and just lose yourself in the story of a young couple realizing what they mean to each other and in overcoming obstacles in realizing their dreams. It's also about a girl (hologram, actually) coming to terms with her existence, sacrificing herself to save another and making the best she can with what life dealt her. I enjoyed it a lot!

This is the absolute WORST Disney Channel Original Movie I've ever seen. It didn't seem to really flow. I think that it's really stupid. Though the main character was really good looking, the whole plot was dumb, and the dancing didn't go along with the music.

This movie, to say the least, was one of the best I've seen the Disney channel make in a long time. It's a relief after all the "never-before-seen" episodes of That's So Raven and Lizzie McGuire we've all had to watch over and over. It's refreshing to see someone new. I'll admit, the flips Loretta did when she sang were very fake looking, but the whole story line was well communicated to the viewers. The makers of the film managed to get actors and actresses who weren't over-exposed, but still did quality work. Ricky Ullman did a spectacular job playing the scientific but cute and lovable Roscoe, and Leah Pipes displayed acting ability beyond anything I've ever seen from Disney Channel before. The emotion her character showed really did a lot for the movie. Overall grade: A
