great marketing, sucky movie

Rating: Null/10 (4 August 2000)

This is a case of great trailers tricking the public into seeing a substandard movie. It was a formula chick flick dressed up in sexy clothing and hot dancing. If only they'd left off the wimpy "poor little girl finding her talented self in the big bad city" and stuck to the fun in the bar. The hokey ballad crooning and heartwrenching soul-sharing did provide one use, however... a good time to go pee and get more popcorn. It'll do better in rentals, I bet, when it's possible to fast-forward through the treacle.
