This isn't a great film, I'll admit, but I have seen worse.
My only issue with this film is that Chloe Rose, the girl who plays the singer in the film, really isn't a very good singer - I find her Mariah Carey-esque warbling a bit grating. Still, she plays the part quite well and luckily there isn't too much singing.
Olivia Newton-John doesn't do herself justice in this role - but not every part can match Sandy in Grease I suppose, and she does do okay in it. I much prefer her singing to that of Chloe Rose's.
It is a bit of a generalization, but I would suggest this is a nice film to be watched by a mother and daughter - a silly, light-hearted film, semi-dramatic and quite heart-warming. Don't expect much or look at it too critically - it is only 90 minutes long and it is nice enough.
