I love Hilary Duff. And this movie is really showing she is a better actress than people think. Seriously, this is one of her better movies. The DVD extras are extremly well done.
This is a must see film. Everyone was soo good in it! Angelica Hustson was great as well!
Buy it! But not from Amazon becuase its like 30 bucks here! Get it from WalMart or something.

So Psyched!

I am so happy to finally know a release date for this! I went and saw the movie on opening weekend, I was able to talk my dad into going, which was cool because we used to have a tradition of going to the movies before school started, but we hadn't gone in so long, and actually, most of the movies I like are movies I would not feel comfortable seeing with my dad. This is a family friendly movie, and I think anyone with an open mind would enjoy it. I loved it, I am a 23 year old Hilary Duff fan, and proud, but even my dad enjoyed the movie, then again he always preferred "clean" movies to some of the more mainstream inappropriate films. This movie will definitely be in my collection, and when I have kids I will very comfortably watch it with them.
Overall, great movie, funny, inspiring.

A good effort but....

3 stars for effort.
This ALMOST was a good movie. I thought for sure it would be good because usually riches to rags stories are. (Just my luck" was cute, I thought.)
This went nowhere, then DIED in the middle.
Although the IDEA was good, the story flopped, and this is why.
Whoever edited it did a bad job. It was choppy, and a lot of it seemed FORCED.Certain scenes seemed totally out of synch.
ALSO, It was more Haylie's debut film, and Hillary was sort of just thrown in there...and truth is, I really don't care for Haylie Duff.
But all stars try getting thier sisters in, I guess.
Britney did it with Jamie Lynn, Lindsay Lohan is trying to get her sis Ali in, and so on...
Anyway, had there been better editing, and the focus wasn't so much on Haylie, it could have been a good movie. The IDEA was good, but that is where it ended.
Maybe worth a rental but not a buy.

Good but suffers from the writing

These two girls work so hard and are very talented and this film has it's charm, it's not a bad film, but the writing is a bit weak. That said, the girls perform well given what they had to work with. I think that both Duffs are in the situation of being quite talented but in search of a worthy and well written script as young adults.They are not the only actors in such a situation unfortunately, the fact that Hollywood has many years where the overall movie making lacks great quality does not help.
I saw it this weekend and I'd say am glad I did. It was really nice to see Haylie at work. The performance from both Duff's was good in spite of the writing. It can also be said that the film shows off both girls physical beauty more so than previous projects.I ,sadly, cannot say that I've ever met Haylie but I have seen Hilary close up in person and she really is as beautiful as she looks in pictures. This film captures more of that.
I understand who the target audience for this is and even fans who are from the broader spectrum should see it and not judge it harshly. It's charming and I'd buy the dvd. They really wanted to work together on a project and I applaud that and hope they get the chance to do so again with a better script.
