That was an excellent one.

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

I stumbled on this film one day and for about thirty minutes was completely spell bound at just how awful it really was. Serious reviewers have made much of the bad wigs - which should tell you everything you need to know! If you are in the right frame of mind you will belly laugh, which seems a very sad state of affairs when you consider this is supposed to be about a young woman who died much too young.There is one particular scene which is, frankly, bonkers. A better treatment would be put together by a fifteen year old film student.Look away ladies and gentlemen - nothing to see here.

I have heard about this film for awhile and hesitated to watch it after hearing such bad reviews, but gave it a shot anyways. Like most, I was a Britney Murphy fan. She had this bubbly sweet personality, this contagious laugh and was able to play any role. Let's start with the casting shall we? Whomever is in charge of casting for roles, should be fired, like now. The girl chosen to play Britney didn't even resemble her in the slightest. I forgot through out the film that I was watching a bio pic because I couldn't see Britney at all. She sounded more Jersey than anything which Britney didn't and where was that great Britney laugh? The eggs were awful. And I feel they didn't give to much insight in her life. Just all the drama. They made it seem as if she was a D list actress who nobody knew, like she was struggling for roles, when she was in so many great films. Films I grew you loving to watch. How can one forget Riding in cars with boys? Or girl interrupted or Uptown girls so on so forth. They skipped years at a time and you couldn't catch up. If you have not yet seen it I don't recommend it.

After reading a lot of the other reviews I was shocked at how mean people were being about the casting. These are real people, makes me a little sick. The casting wasn't great but I thought they did an OK job, Brittany Murphy was a star because she had the talent and looks, those are hard shoes to fill. I thought the lead role was cast well, the woman could act, I didn't need her to pass as a double for her character.The story was sappy, but hey this is a Lifetime movie, we knew what it was going into this. Let's not pretend we were surprised how this played out.The movie was OK, I gave it 4 stars. Probably won't ever watch it a 2nd time but it was a decent way to pass some time. Wouldn't mind seeing this story get a real treatment with a real budget.

While it is true that Ms. Fuller could not compare in looks to the late Brittany Murphy, it is also true that she gave a very memorable performance relating to the late star. As her mother, who wanted freedom for her daughter, Ms. Fenn was also quite good as well as the guy who played the con-artist producer she married.This is literally examining the familiar theme of too much too soon and how it affects people who achieve stardom very quickly.The Ashton Kutcher role came off as real heel here. This personality and attitude certainly didn't have him coming off in the best of ways.Amazing that she kept to herself, was a doting daughter and did not jump out all the way for the Hollywood life. Better off had she remained in New Jersey and had led an ordinary life.
