Best movie ever!

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

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

Elle (Aly Michalka) and Joy (AJ Michalka) are sisters singing duo. The movie is narrated by their stillborn middle sister Emily (Saoirse Ronan). It's their last week on Weepah Way. Their mother Lynn (Mimi Rogers) is divorced from their cheating father John (Gil Bellows). The sisters suffer from OCD. Elle is the flighty one and she's throwing a party before they set off on a concert tour. Joy still admires their father and invited him to the party. They spend their day visiting friends and sneaking into their old home to swim. Then Joy tells Elle about a scare.This movie seems like a bunch of improvised scenes. This is hit and miss. There is incredible skills needed to do improvised dialog. The girls can really talk fast but comedy does require some timing. They almost do it sometimes but they're going too fast. Jon Heder is pretty funny in his one scene. I do like the real-life Michalka sisters who play an alternate version of themselves. They always bring good energy to their performances. This is a valiant attempt at something a little more impressive. Writer/director Stephen Ringer brings a breezy Californian feel but it ends up too rambling to maintain the tension all the way through.

If I could, I would give this movie more stars. I found it to be a really wonderful and touching as well as a hilariously real movie. Indie films always have a top place in my heart and this was just one I fell in love with. From laughing to crying, this film is definitely a must see. I've always been an Aly & AJ fan and am happy to see them in another film together. I love their sisterly chemistry on and off screen and they're amazingly talented. Their sibling relationship in the movie was adorable and witty and comical. Their performance of their song in the movie was also incredibly beautiful. I don't think there was anything I disliked. Might not be a movie for everyone, but it was definitely one of my favorites!

Watching Aly & AJ grow up before my very eyes and they constantly leave me shook and this movie is just another example of that. Easily the best movie of 2016, no other movie could ever. Saved the movie industry. My weave has been snatched. Still recovering from it. I could watch this movie on repeat and never get tired of it. Thinking of watching it right now as we speak, that's how good it is. There aren't enough ratings to rate this movie. I'd give it 1000 stars if I could. If you love yourself, watch this movie. Share it with your friends. Share it with strangers. Gift it to the entire world. Everyone will thank you for it later. Trust me. 10/10, would recommend.

Cavernous sequences of trite dialogue build to Tarantinoesque levels of tension, repeatedly failing to pay off... (It didn't take long before I started praying that Kurt Russel would come shredding across the vineyard in his hotrod and mow these two idiots down). Is that seriously a '7.7' up there? (maybe I'm going blind) This is a movie about girls, by girls, for girls, archetyping girls, so girls who aren't quite sure what it means to be girls can finally just be girls.The epitome of narrowing construct - feminism's worst nightmare.Unimpressive at its best; bordering on nauseating at its worst.
