Great girls, worthless movie

Rating: 1/10 (22 July 2000)

The Spice Girls deserved the brutal fall from grace for this cinematic blunder. Although the girls are talented and have full personalities they are buried under tons of lousy plot twists. It starts great and then comes the moronic "drama" moments with Roger Moore (what a waste of a greatly talented actor) then the other "drama" with Bob Hoskins & Mark McKinney which serves only to irritate and detract. Every "drama" scene drains the movie of any fun shown before. Half way into the film it becomes really bad. Frankly I felt the director said, "We got their money, who cares what they see next?" Then the film becomes a cheap montage of lousy sets and action. What is truly sad is that the Spice Girls do have talent and actually interesting personalities. They deserved a good movie to showcase their skills. And this movie dragged them off the stage. I was a fan and I felt exploited and insulted by this worthless film. I hate the Spice Girls because of this film. It bluntly stated, "We feel our fans are idiots. They'll gladly buy any cheap item we drop in their laps." This movie has made me disgusted with the Spice Girls. They obviously care as little for their fans as they did with their careers. The only movie that I ever walked out on (and I've seen some unbearable stinkers in my time).
