Content-Void Cartoon of Itself

Rating: 1/10 (4 August 2001)

Love may conquer all but this dog of a film. What seemed like a lengthy wait for some point, finally turned into a painful realization that this nonmusical isn't a parody( Darn, a Technoglitz Lampoon of a Musical Romance might have been fun!) and isn't literary, historical or poignant. It is a cartoon of itself: vaguely comic,two-dimensional dialogue and vapid plot, absolutely mangled medley of "Top of the Chart Love Hits" from yesteryear, and endlessly ridiculous camera and computer gimmicks that define the entire work. As this hound lumbered into a second hour of artless musical fragments, we literally raced to the exit in relief. At the dollar movies in record time--what a shock!!
