Awesome Movie
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Giving a chance to the pop movies, I rented it!!! I have seen love stories, I have seen teenage movies that actually are pretty good!!! But Oh my God this movie sucks!!!!!!!!! This N'Sync boys can't find a way to make money... that's way I think they did this awful movie... the story is pretty bad and give an incomplete plot because you never understand what is really happened in the feelings of the girl and the boy... the moment in the train is the most corny that I ever seen, this movie is so plastic!!!!!! Guys if you want to see a love movie watch THE NOTEBOOK!!! Movies that out of a good story even if it is corny, it leave a message in your heart!
I am not an NSync (spelling?) fan, but this is one of my favorite movies for multiple reasons:1. It is surprisingly clean. No foul language whatsoever and it is soooo rare to find a PG movie that isn't targeting young kids/families (for those sensitive to this or can appreciate this element).2. There is a very significant secondary plot about music. In fact, I have this movie to thank for introducing me to the music of Al Green (I also own the soundtrack). The end's a little cheesy, but for someone who also played open mic's at one point, it's nice to indulge a fantasy now and then.3. Dave Foley's character has some truly funny moments. His stand up roots really shine through.4. It's not a teeny bopper. Lance Bass and his friends are past their college years, and Lance's love interest just finished grad school.So with that, it is difficult to predict who the movie was targeting, but it certainly got my attention.
So, this movie was a romantic comedy. Personally, I found the comedy extremely entertaining. The fake farts, Dave Foley, the little bit during the credits, people getting hit... The romance, not so much. The acting, not so much. The script, not so much. Still, I will always love the comedy in it all.
How much more so-called musicians do we have to endure in the movie theaters? It's getting worse with every film, I thought Busta Rhymes ridiculous role in Halloween:Resurrection was the low point, but alas no, I got the awful On The Line at the English language sneak preview last night and it was just a nuisance (I have to carefully avoid the real and rightful words I use here...). The story was very familiar and it was told bad as can be! I last saw this story done well in Serendipity (spelling?), but this one had actors in it, while On The Line was nothing but a blown up video clip that should rot on MTV not at movie theaters - Nuff Said!I give this 1 of 10 stars, but only since 0 is not possible...
