If only people would understand the difference between a fun movie and one you should be taking seriously, please lighten up. This is not meant to be critiqued like it was supposed to be some big masterpiece. The plot seems like it would be geared toward 11 and 13 year olds, but it's unfair to say it doesn't appeal to an older audience, I'm almost 19 and I enjoyed it, so did my sister AND my mother, in fact she's the one who convinced me to rent it. The acting isn't mind boggling but it isn't so bad where you're rolling your eyes at it. Julie Andrews was excellent though and she looks good for her age too. I think some parts were cliched and a bit predictable, but who cares? It was still a cute movie. I don't think anyone should write off this film just by it's appearance, like I did, cause you'll be pleasantly surprised. And pay no mind to these "skip it, it's a waste of time" comments, that's crap.
