Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Highly Overrated But Still Good

Absolutely the worst movie.

There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

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 did actually manage to watch this whole movie, but it was a painful experience. I saw another review that mentioned how the girl playing Brittany looked nothing like her - she may have had the curly hair that Murphy had during the filming of Clueless, but that was about the extent of it. It was pretty awful to watch.Having recently seen that fabulous documentary film about Amy Winehouse, I can say that this movie was worlds and worlds apart from the Amy one. Then again, the Amy one was full of actual documentary footage. This one was a really awkward telemovie that shouldn't have ever been produced.I saw that Murphy's father called it 'trashy' - I couldn't agree more. I think Murphy deserves something much better.

They've got to be kidding with this actress playing Brittany! She looks NOTHING like her, she's too big and heavy, her face is chubby, her hair is all wrong, her voice - it's just ridiculous! Of all the actors that might have been chosen, why her? Poor Brittany... she would have been so disappointed. I'd just like to know how they got funding for this movie with that girl in the lead role! Brittany was sparkly, funny and bubbly... not to mention her gorgeous looks. This girl sounded like she had a sinus condition, her face was too round and pudgy and she was talking in that hoarse voice trying to emulate someone with whom she had ZERO resemblance. I didn't think anything could be worse than Lindsay Lohan playing Elizabeth Taylor... but, boy, was I wrong! It was just plain laughable when this so-called actress as Brittany in the film was told that she's young and beautiful! She should be embarrassed by this casting decision and her awful performance! I saw her in an interview before the airing of the movie justifying her role, even though she was already aware of the disgust people felt about it.

I will say right up front, I only watched 22 minutes of this atrocity. I gave up when they got to the Alicia Silverstone "character". Seriously?! They couldn't find ONE SINGLE BLONDE ACTRESS to play the part? Instead, they appear to have grabbed some girl off the street and plopped a really, really, really bad blonde wig on her head. Did I mention how BAD the wig was. This movie is just a complete failure. Amanda Fuller sounded more like Tai from Clueless than Brittany Murphy. Frankly, the girl who played Morgan looks more like Brittany. Do yourself and your brain cells a favor and skip this steaming pile of garbage. I would have given it 0 stars if that was an option.
