Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

Good story, Not enough for a whole film

This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

If anyone is able to portray Elizabeth Taylors wild sense of untamed demeanour, carelessness for negative publicity and undying need for love, it's Lindsay Lohan. Let's be real people, Lindsay has graced covers on so many magazines and we love them because she is the 21st century bad girl.... The way the media portrayed Taylor in the 60s. I'm watching this movie as I write this and lets be real... She rocked the epitome of Taylor not as the actress but because she can relate. This is why her spirit is conveyed in essence of Taylor. If Chris Crocker did it for Britney...this is my rendition for Lohan!JT Gee

It's hard to believe that just a decade or so ago Lindsay Lohan was the next big thing, praised for her acting and screen presence by critics and acting vets alike. Obviously a lot has happened in the ensuing years that has dimmed that light. Quite frankly, watching her now is painful. She's a mess. Her once-promising talent is lost. Physically, she's no comparison to Elizabeth Taylor. Taylor was a striking full-figured beauty. Lohan is a pale waif with lip injections. Beyond the physical, Taylor was a great actress. Lohan, as this movie proves, is not.Aside from the curiosity factor of watching the terrible Lohan, the movie has nothing else to recommend. As others have pointed out, Grant Bowler does a good job mimicking Richard Burton's voice. But his performance is nothing special beyond that. The script is hackneyed and tedious. The direction is lackluster and very much what you would expect from a movie made for Lifetime. Just avoid this at all costs unless your curiosity about the human trainwreck Lindsay Lohan gets the best of you.

I actually liked this movie, not only because I'm a huge fan of Lindsay Lohan but also because I think Lindsay together with Grant did their characters so well. I did some research on both Elizabeth Tyler and Richard Burton and they look almost the same. My personal opinion is that they both shaped and stepped in to their characters really good! It's a TV movie, and it fits that category really well. I don't think it would've fitted on the big screen in the theater but here it does. As for the contents, it's a nice story, and you really got the chance of knowing both Liz and Dick and their up and downs. And I think if you're in to the movies and the showiness, then you should be familiar with their story and them as human being. I liked it and I would recommend it to those who likes documentary, and a bit of history. And if you're a fan of Lohan.

There may be some bias in my review, because I am a big Lohan fan, but I thought she did a fine job as Liz Taylor.On the other hand, it's definitely not her best performance, but there are moments when she does a great job, more towards the end when she's playing the older Taylor.The script is terrible, however. The movie jumps all over the place and almost seems more like a bunch of sketches. There is little to no time to actually get into the movie.Overall, unless you're a LL fan or just very curious how this went, I wouldn't recommend it. Still, you can do worse.
