Review of Popstar

Popstar (2005)
This movie traps my soul
16 February 2008
Warning: Spoilers
I know it sounds crazy, but I just cannot get enough of this embarrassing film. I have never felt emotions of sadness and laughter at the same time to this degree. Everything about this film is low budget crap, beginning from scene one. The montages are awful, too. I don't care about watching a girl brush her teeth (with no toothpaste!) for 15 seconds, or her using various facial products to rid of pimples. I just do not understand how this movie was made in 2005. I could have sworn that the "tween" craze was over with by 2000.

Highlights of the film: The awkwardness. A lot of scenes end by being completely awkward, like when J.D. just randomly gives Jane a cell phone, though he had just randomly arrived at her house hours prior. Why are there dolphins so close to the ocean? Why did the bow on the car look like vomit? Why was it Gogle instead of Google? A lot of questions have not been answered for me or my friends.

Lief Garrets song at the end. It's priceless.

I am sure that TAG Entertainment thought this movie was going to do great. I mean, they rented one Porsche (or is it Nick Carters?) that is used by three different people throughout the whole movie. Lief Garret and David Cassidy (both two prominent child stars) are featured in the movie. The only thing they needed in this film was substance, which is what a film needs or else is pointless. So, in the end, watching this movie is pointless. Unless you like torture and want to scare your friends.
