Title: Was This Supposed to be a Joke?
Product review: In all honesty, I love musicals, and I'm really looking forwards to the next season of American Idol, but this film is just a manifestation of everything and anything that could possibly go wrong with merging the two mediums. After hearing the outpouring of bad reviews, I decided I could live without seeing this movie, but alas, I got hit with it on the airplane a few weeks ago. I didn't have to watch it, I was just morbidly curious. True, Kelly and Justin aren't very good actors, but the shortcomings of this film aren't completely their fault. There's the bad writing, the bad direction, bad music, cliched plot devices - this project didn't have a prayer. It also didn't help that it seemed no one in the cast or crew really seemed to care about the film either.
