Quotes

[Two girls on the volleyball team accuse Erica of not being a real athlete]
Erica Enders: Ever drive a dragster? The G-forces are so intense it slams you into the seat. You can't breathe, literally 'cause of the pressure on your lungs. Makes it kind of hard to move your head and your arms, and believe me you gotta do both. So you really have to develop your arm and shoulder muscles.

Really Good

This was actually a really good movie. I was seeing a commercial for it on about every network so I knew all about it. I was laying on the couch when Disney announced it was coming on. I decided I would watch it to test it but didn't think it would last long. Some Disney movies are really good but others too sappy. Well this movie was actually really good. I really enjoyed it. I sat through the whole thing, and though it was predictable at times I was never bored of it. Some parts can be a little sappy but hey if they weren't than it wouldn't be a Disney movie. It had a really good cast. I liked the relationship of the daughters and their father. It was nice. The movie is about a girl named Erica Enders and her sister Courtney (though it is mostly about Erica). She loves drag racing, but is discriminated against because she is a girl. I'm not going to give away any parts or anything but it was really good. I was surprised. Of course as I said some things can be a little too lovey dovey, but that's what I liked about it. This is a great family movie. I give it 9/10.
