Product Details


Product Description

From Amazon.com

Pop idol Britney Spears stars in this sweet coming-of-age movie about three childhood friends who've grown apart, but find out they may still have a lot in common. After graduating from high school, Lucy (Spears), Kit (Zoe Saldana), and Mimi (Taryn Manning) decide to take a road trip to L.A. to audition for a record label. Along the way, there's a lot of heartbreak and female bonding (not to mention a lot of midriff-baring--in her first scene, Spears jumps on her bed in her underwear, singing along to a Madonna song), as each of the three girls learns more about herself and life. Crossroads could have been trite schmaltz, but the script has some grit and the direction is fresh and relaxed--and, most significantly, Spears is far more sympathetic and engaging than you might expect. Also featuring Dan Aykroyd and Kim Cattrall. --Bret Fetzer

5.0 out of 5 stars This was such a great surprise!, Jun 9 2002
By 
ed (Somewhere) - See all my reviews
When I walked into this movie I wasnt expecting much other then a typical teen movie. What I got was something much more then that. This was about peoples lives and how they deal with things we face in everyday life. Britney Spears does a great job in her first starring role. She makes the role so convincing that you think she is acually going through it in real life. This movie is really great and I think everyone should at least rent the movie to see how great it really is. Crossroads is a great movie for everyone and Britney does a great job in it! Five Stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars Crossroads (2002), May 4 2004
This review is from: Crossroads 02 (VHS Tape)
Britney Spears seems to be following in Madonna's footsteps, but in her own unique way. Back in 1983 and 1984, Madonna became the freshest voice in music by releasing her first two albums. In 1985, Madonna became the freshest face in movies by starring in her first movie, DESPERATELY SEEKING SUSAN. Britney Spears in going down the same path. In 1999, Britney became the freshest voice in music and now's she become the freshest face in movies. This is her first starring role in a major film.

Three ten year old girls named LUCY (Britney Spears), KIT (Zoe Saldana), and MIMI (Taryn Manning) had gotten a box and each put a wish into the box. They buried the box with the intention of digging it up on Midnight on the night of their High School graduation. LUCY put a locket in the box. The locket contained a picture of her and her mother. LUCY wished to find her mother. MIMI put in a keychain. The charm was a globe. MIMI wished to get out and see the world. KIT put in her Bride Barbie. KIT wished to become a bride. They vowed to be best friends forever, but unfortunately, that never happened.

Eight years later, it is the dawn of their high school graduation. LUCY is a quiet person who wants get out and fun. She's very quiet because her father is been so overprotective in order to keep her from making the same mistake her mother made. MIMI is at times insecure, but very outgoing. She has enough street smarts to know what the world is like. She needs to be this way because she is now six months pregnant. This happened over Christmas Break. Her boyfriend blew her off just so he can hang out with his friends. MIMI had more than a few beers and a seemingly nice guy with a blue beer bottle offered her a ride home. The ride he had in mind was a bump in the back seat with MIMI. KIT is a very prissy, feminine girl, who happens to be the most popular in the whole school. MIMI seems to be the only one who wants to dig up the box. LUCY would have but has "plans" with her prom date, HENRY (played by Justin Long). KIT chooses not to go because she's too mature to do something childish. MIMI sets out on her own only to find KIT with a shovel. They both go looking for the spot until they find LUCY. They dig up the box and find their wishes. KIT's wish was to be a bride and her wish will be coming true. She's marrying her boyfriend Dylan. LUCY finds her wish and is still not sure if it's coming true yet. Her wish was to find her mother. MIMI finds her wish. Her wish was to see the world. Being that she's pregnant, LUCY and KIT don't think it will be coming true for awhile, but MIMI's going to make it happen. She gives the two a magazine article. It's an add for auditions for a record company in LA. MIMI asks LUCY and KIT to join her. KIT only goes so she could see DYLAN. LUCY goes along only to be dropped off in TUSCAN, ARIZONA so she could see her mother. They get a ride with BEN (ANSON MOUNT).

By the third day, the car breaks down. KIT and MIMI become very bitter with each other, but MIMI's idea was the last chance the three had to becoming best friends again. They joined for a karaoke contest. Their performance of I LOVE ROCK 'N ROLL paid them enough money for the car and the trip. That night, the three became best friends again.

They reached ARIZONA and let LUCY off in front of the house that belonged to her mother, CAROLINE (played by KIM CATRELL). Shocked to see her, Caroline invites LUCY in only to break her heart. Caroline said that she never wanted Lucy and that her father made her give birth. Lucy was just a mistake. So, she leaves and rejoins her friends.

I will not give away the rest. But this a movie that should be viewed by everybody. It goes to show you that dreams may change, but friends are forever and beyond. Watch this and prepare to be amazed at how a friendship goes from being great to bad to unbelievably unbreakable.
