Rosana B 07/30/2023 Bobinho mas bonitinho... Um besteirol tentando ser cômico, o draminha me convenceu mais do que a comédia, algumas boas tiradas, boas e raras, ora cansativo, ora despretensioso... Minha companheira numa madrugada de insônia e trabalho... Gostosinho porém regular... Nem acredito que chorei no finalzinho, com o coral cantando "To be with you", porque afinal é mais que uma comédia, é sobre assumir riscos, é sobre correr atrás do que se quer... See more 01/15/2021 Hilarious! I loved every character and how in a very short time you get to know them and adore them! Also music is amazing 👏 See more 05/08/2020 I enjoyed this incredibly more than I thought I was going to. I accidentally came across it recently, and the cast list made it seem too interesting to ignore. I was even impressed with JC Chasez; I had no idea he was an actor. Topher Grace has yet to NOT be amazing in anything I have seen him in, and he continues the streak in this movie. Incorporate the occasional dance and song to a famous one-hit-wonder and zingy (and hilarious) dialogue, and this is a hit. I am surprised it did not get more attention. I know I'm late, but I'm glad I was able to show up at all. It is playing on Netflix right now, but I bought it on Amazon, anyway. :) See more 01/14/2019 Actually pretty fun, funny but not in a forced way, the music is 90s and early 2000s and not over the top. ending was a little lame and obvious but I'm not sorry I watched this, it was worth a viewing. See more 10/19/2018 Surprisingly engrossing! See more 01/20/2018 Strengths: Everything taking place on one night allowed the film to move at a quick pace. That, combined with some fun performances, made this work. Topher Grace (Nick) and Alona Tal (Chloe) are good, while Taye Diggs (Malcolm) and JC Chasez (Himself) steal the show. JC especially did a wonderful job making fun of himself. The movie itself did well in poking fun at the musical genre in general. Some of the highlights include a sing-off between Diggs and Lesli Margherita (Brandy), Grace finally breaking into song and every single thing Chasez did. Weaknesses: Every character is given something to do, they're just not all very good. Anne Heche (Brooke) feels kind of wasted and her side storyline isn't very funny. Considering she gets concussed and given ecstasy, there were missed opportunities for comedy there. Rob Riggle (Goldmeyer) is usually over the top, but it's a bit much here and it becomes campy. There was also a side story of a character needing to do drugs before performing. It gave only mild laughs and didn't add much to the overall film. Lastly, though I enjoyed the dynamic between Chloe and Nick, it ended on quite the clichéd note and didn't really feel that earned. Maybe a bit more time could've been spent on that relationship than some of the lesser side plots. Overall: I liked this a lot more than expected. Most of the cast perform well, with standout performances from Digg and Chasez. Some of the side plots missed the mark, and a few things become cliché near the end, but this was a fun ride.
