This movie is great as it has aspects of sadness, to make you cry and happiness, to make you smile. The song towards the end is very catchy and once after watching the movie you'll be sure to go and download it.

This Movie is aimed for anyone who enjoys the odd chick flicks, mainly aimed for girls.
Extras: On the movie the extras include going behind the scenes and seeing how the movie was made, which can be interesting. Or if you're one of those people who want a bit of a laugh, watching the outtakes can be fun, and to prove that even famous people can get stuff wrong. If you couldn't get enough of the movie, and I'm sure you won't, watching the deleted scenes can be fun, as you get to see more things that can happen within the story. If you're like me and you enjoy the song at the end, you can watch the music video over and over again on the extras, instead of keep re-winding back to the singing bit. Finally, my favourite bit on the extras is what is known as the interactive Jam, where you can create your own music sequence and play it back again, trust me, it can keep you amused for more time than you think.
Advantages: Oliver james is in it Disadvantages: very predictable
A word of warning i do kinda say what happens.
Teri Fletcher played by Hillary duff is a small town girl with an ambition to go to a summer school to do what she loves most, to sing, however after her brother dies unexpectedly at the start of the film she loses her ambition. However she soon gets it back and goes to the summer school behind her over protective fathers back and, well, sings.
Right from the start I was afraid I wasn't going to like ... ...little sister, don't get me wrong I love mine but I wouldn't get myself grounded on my graduation night by taking a huff because my sister wasn't allowed to go somewhere like he did. Maybe that's just me but he just seemed too nice. Anyway the rest of the film is very predictable. I mean of course she would get one of the solos in singing class and meet a gorgeous guy and sorry to spoil it if you want to see it but of course her dad would turn up ...

This must be Hilary Duff's worst film yet. I was really looking forward to seeing this girly young-teen film, having loved Cinderella Story and the Lizzie McGuire movie, but was bitterly disappointed. Duff plays a young, small-town girl who dreams of becoming famous, and is encouraged by her older brother, but not her dad (who is very over-protective). Her supportive brother, however, dies at the start of the film and so she falters on her path to ... ...school, she realises that she ought to go (in her brother's memory, of course), but must lie to her dad in order to do it. The film takes you through what happens to her at music school, and effectively, how she regains her confidence.
Duff's performance of emotional scenes is appalling; her 'crying' is really fake and I felt that she could do much better. It seemed to me that she also found it hard to play the role of the unknown teenager looking ...

Terri Fletcher (Hilary Duff) is your typical sweet-hearted, small-town girl and she always obeys her intensely overprotective dad (David Keith), but when she gets accepted to a summer program at a prestigious Los Angeles music school and he forbids her to go, she realises it's time to break away. With the help of her cool aunt (Rebecca De Mornay), Terri figures out a ruse to sneak off to LA and seize the chance to actualise her musical dreams. Once there, it's harsh wake-up time however, as she realises being naive, adorable, blonde, un-pierced, and un-tattooed means being ostracised in this too-cool musical community. Luckily John Corbett, a sympathetic music teacher, is there to help, and there's time for romance to bloom with a British classmate (Oliver James). Before this little star can truly blossom though, she still has to cope with the trauma of losing her brother in a car accident (it's left her terrified of bright lights, a real problem for a stage performer) and then there's the matter of telling the truth to her furious father. Duff's effortless charisma lifts this sturdy, comfortably worn-in vehicle easily over the bumpier cliche's, and delivers it safely to its inspiring destination.
