This upbeat film makes suspension of disbelief a mite difficult. But the attractive melting-pot cast, the emphasis on character-building and respect for oneself and others, the clothes, the songs, the clothes are simply "cheetah-licious."

Variety

[The Cheetah Girls] aspires to be a culturally diverse morality lesson disguised as musical fantasy. Instead, it's a diva training film with a plot about as memorable as a Kelly Clarkson pic.

The Ringer

The film made stars out of its cast (especially Raven-Symoné and Adrienne Bailon), gave us incredible bops, and, dare I say, changed the way we dressed in 2003.

In the long run, the music is more memorable than the movie itself, but it's a pleasant reminder of a simpler past. I'll still bump "Girl Power" every now and then.

Rated: 6/10

I think that's one of the reasons why I enjoyed the music as a kid so much, and watching the film now again as a young adult, I realized how inspirational and powerful these lyrics were.

Despite the overly sappy and ridiculous ending, this is a pleasant way for preteens and teens to spend a Friday evening. The absolute worst that could come of this is that viewers may start saying, "cheetah-licious."

I remember the live premiere of this and didn't enjoy it much. This was the end of the golden dcom era. They started focusing on making bad pop stars with cheesy lyrics instead of clever or meaningful plot lines. This was the beginning of that spiral. Watching it now as an adult I still felt the same way. Nothing meaningful about this film. The obnoxious inspirational lyrics are obvious and untrue. These girls didn't care about music. The entire movie was about how thirsty they are to be famous and rich. Not about loving music and wanting to be part of the industry. It was all about fame and that's a bad take away from a young adult film. There was no passion. Just bad clothing, cringe lyrics and annoyingly whiney and vengeful characters. The only redeeming factor is Ravens character not selling out and wanting to make her own music even if she doesn't get a contract.

Baseado na série de livros de mesmo nome de Deborah Gregory . Este filme marca o primeiro filme original do Disney Channel como um musical. Bem bonitinho, aqueles infanto-juvenis fofinhos, eu adoro, injusto esse Top Bottom, oh dó...

This DCOM is known as a classic and it definitely earns that with incredibly written characters and presents tension that elevates characters growth and narrative but where it stumbles is the final act where the conclusion seems to be so simple yet so unearned that in a way it unravels what is setup in the movie.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

I know I'm clearly not the demographic for this movie but good god is it obnoxious! Practically every minute I wanted to say "oh shut up!" to the screen. Unless your really interested in what the talk is about with this movie, just skip it.
