Pretty Good

Powerful

Boring

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

This movie really puzzled me, who was it made for? It had loads of chick-things, chick-talk, chick-behavior, all the usual excessive naive girlie stuff - but then again it had so many ass-close ups I lost my count. In general the plot was rough on the edges and it rolled forward quite shatteringly. They tried adding some drama to spice things up, but managed to do a lousy job and the characters seemed more like sociopaths with multi-personalities than sensible feeling people. Only somewhat decent scene was when Gabbys father died and you could actually experience some real feelings in the moment. Mostly the cuts were very sloppy and had meaningless stops to body parts or random background things (like the surfer dudes, what was up with that?? They had absolutely nothing to do with movie but were filmed so much I was already waiting something to happen, like girls falling down watching the surfers so much while running, but no, nothing. They were just useless crap there to waste some film.). In general scenes were hard to follow and filled with loads of unnecessary bad looking effects, just giving the overall feel of an amateur filming. It just looked dirty. I can put up easily with bad sports in a teenage "sport" movie, cause that is maybe the hardest thing to do; you can have good and pretty actors or good and pretty athletes, but damned to find a pretty, talented actor slash athlete - not to mention a whole team of them. That just the way it goes. If you want to watch a seriously taken sport movie, there's really not many out there, but maybe get something like "Million Dollar Baby". What truly hit my nerves bad, was the drugging part - with a hormone *laugh*. Melatonin is naturally produced sleeping hormone by our bodies so you can catch some sleep. Even a high amount it wont make you look like on drugs and hallucinate, it just makes you at most over time somewhat sleepy and yawn - like every night when your ready to go to bed! If your up and active that will counteract with the sleepiness feeling, hey we all have stayed up pass our bedtimes and know whats that like. Melatonin is not a sleeping medicine and might not even work at all if you have a bad insomnia. Trying to drug someone with melatonin is the stupidest thing I've ever heard - hey why don't you go ahead and try to put some birth control pills in it the next time! Now that would really make people loose their minds and screw up coordination and sight, don't you think? Not caring to check out a single very easy detail in your script, that is nevertheless essential to the plot, just makes me despise the makers very much.

This movie was better than I expected. It presented a positive view about what persons can do with their life, even if life is not fair. With some comedy, real life situations and disappointments and how determination can overcome almost any challenge, this movie is must see. It shows how different walks of life can get along when a common goal is presented. Also showing that no matter what side of the tracks you're from, inside we are all basically the same.We strive to be better. A better person, player, friend or just trying to understand how to handle life itself.This movie will make you sad, happy, laugh and at times even dance for the sake of dancing. Very well made in my opinion. I wish more movies with this type of message were made more often.

Well MTV Movies are usually not good movies, because of the cast that they choose. Adrienne Bailon (3LW) in this movie showed a more dramatic side of her, then I've ever seen. I was shocked and excited that should could put on a performance, she could be a good actress. Now as for Ciara she mentioned that she didn't have acting classes to do this movie, well she should have, because like someone stated there wasn't a character it was "Ciara." If you looked closely you can see that she smiles when trying to be serious. Other than that I like movies that deal with teenage drama, because it's some what true. I would say if your a fan of any one in this movie go get it, other then that don't.

I had nothing else to do so I watched this. It follows three rich girls ( one of them is Ciara) who have to travel to the miniature "ghetto" private school so they can play volleyball after their private school burns down. One of the girls quickly falls in love with the singer from 3LW( Adrianne Bailon)'s on again off again boyfriend. One of them just stuffs her face, and Ciara just decides to be rude. This movie was so terrible. I don't buy Adrianne's ghettoness one bit, and the way they play those stereotypical roles gave me a headache. I really didn't enjoy this at all. The highlight was Pedro from Napeleon Dynamnite was in. Don't waste your time buying the DVD, I wouldn't even recommend watching on MTV.
