Bad movie with split personality

Rating: 2/10 (27 November 2010)

This is a lousy movie with some of the worst, most utterly hackneyed writing in the history of movies, but what makes it stand out as particularly ill-conceived is that the story is Rocky/"Hey kids, let's do a show," while the production numbers are faux Bob Fosse. Consequently, the numbers have nothing to do with the story, or vice versa. Started badly when the heroine gave her buddy at the bar money to buy a bike for the buddy's kid, then ran down one cliché to another till it ended 4 or 5 hours later.
Cher and Aguilara sang well, but this isn't MTV, and as a movie it was awful.
