Actuakers One of my all time favorites.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Fulke Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

lagfox This is the worst movie I have ever seen, the acting is terrible, the characters are lame and it's just...UGHHH!! It's a lame movie and most of all a waste of time! Did I also mention that it killed TEN of my brain cells per minute?! This movie is cancer! Stay away from this crap pile!

annevejb Emma, born 10th February 1991, is unusual as what I have seen of hers are all nice roles. Well, sort of.Blow (2001), her second by IMDb order, way too scary for me. A biography of a drug smuggler, a story that has high energy all through the first half, then his marriage and the birth of a daughter marks the turning point with his world falling to pieces and by the time that she is ten he is in jail for life, rule of 3. This echoes elements of other stories such as Nicole Kidman's Nightmaster (1987), but is way too much about reality for such as smaller scale individuals such as underclass. Good girl Emma in a true to life story that is much too difficult for me to like. I have only seen it the once, the first half was very watchable, it is very available on DVD.Grand Champion (2001), her third, is dedicated to mums. I guess that some of those who have kids that are under the age of 12 might easily like this a lot first time round, want to re-watch it occasionally with their kids, too. I found it difficult first viewing as the language feels to be more geared to the under 12's. Re-watching, it then soon got to be rather okay. Emma comes across well in this, a sweetie who is really, really nice. The action centres around her brother and his pet and his friend and some puzzles that they have to find solutions for. ER in her first singing role.BigLove (2001), her first, by IMDb order, as a ten minute short that I have not been able to find, yet, on DVD. Two kids needing to go to school, just the parents are a problem. This sounds as if it tries to say something modern. As it is a short it might have been filmed after the other two of 2001.Spymate (2004) At August 2009 this is region 1 NTSC and UK prices are usually a bit above My Price, but not always. A goodies v baddies comedy where it is mostly only the baddies who have a humour that might appeal to older kids. Emma as the straight guy in the middle of this. A feature that gets poor reviews as many under 8ish do not write reviews. So, I can sort of like this though I do find it weak.Drake and Josh, she is in one episode, Honor Council (2004), which seems to be at the end of season 2. The only episode of D and J that I have I could not relate to. Could be that it is best for under 12's who are male.Unfabulous (2004+) Getting to know it this feels like highs and lows. Some excellent episodes and some rather weak. It is nothing like what I had expected and some detail in the series is echoed in later features. This feels like Emma's main training ground for acting skills, essential viewing for some fans. Akin to The Amanda Show for Bynes? Aquamarine (2006). I knew that this was really big in girl world, the under 12's, when it came out. The start shows real power, Emma and JoJo on the beach and showing how they relate to it all. Florida, sunny beach, summer holidays, their skin modestly covered. I needed a few viewings in order to properly like this modest story. Do that, I can appreciate that those under 12's who raved on about Aquamarine had sense that I can accept as sense. Most IMDb comments on this are not by those for whom this was made. The kid who took his little sister to see Aquamarine was giving her a remarkable gift as it was one that she loved.Nancy Drew (2007). Nicely nice girl, so pure and sweet. I could like this straight away and the car chase after the explosion had so much in the way of extras for pondering on ways of the nice, stuff that I now get tangled by paradox by. This might be the most accessible Emma Roberts of her earliest work.So there is later stuff. Wild Child (2008) has ER acting at age 16 as a 16 and it is so vastly different to the earlier works, though bad girl Harriet does get the start of a Blow. Could be that ER features might have variety.Other early stuff. At least two small parts as an extra or cameo. 2001 America's Sweethearts and 2002/3 Lizzie McGuire series 2-26, A Gordo Story. America's Sweethearts, a parody title as this has elements of Blow, Emma is in the background of Kiki's egg breakfast scene where love is starting to be real, though with a survivable tidal wave of putridity still to arrive, Blow was less survivable. 2-26, Gordo has been turned down by a cutie because he is so small, but he has the qualities for bouncing back. Then the dance and Emma is looking forlorn, bouncing up and down in the background, way behind Ethan. The dance has a certain tragedy. Still, in Champion she was a sweetie and in Nancy she was nice girl, in the others an in-between-ie. The later: Wild Child as comedy that I consider to be true horror, old world v new world as different modes of creeping death.Several Emma Roberts features include some information about the filming dates. Potentially useful if one is a fan. With this I am trying to arrange the entries in the order of the filming dates.

eurotrashjet Well, I tuned in to this on TV. I was interested because I was familiar with JoJo as a singer. I didn't know quite what to expect. I ended up watching it three times in a row. Twentieth Century Fox should be commended for this little gem. I rated this a ten because that is where it falls in reference to what it is trying to be. This is a charming, bright, sunny, funny, touching, day at the beach, full of laughter, tears, friendship and love. If you don't like that, or perhaps you don't like the sound and sight of squealing, laughing, running and smiling girls, well then perhaps this is not your cup of tea. But if you want a happy go lucky romp back into your younger years, then forget your cares and step right up. I can't help but think the Australian influence in this film helped the atmosphere immensely. Sara, Emma, JoJo, Jake and Arielle were all great in this film. As far as Sara, Emma, and JoJo's acting is concerned, they nailed it. That is what girls act like. Welcome to Planet Earth. This film has its values in the right place. And, what is more, it has its heart in the right place. What a blast. Enjoy!

Jinn I thought this a lovely movie ... and I'm 35 - no kids and no plans for them either. I adore Unicorns, Elves, Faeries, Witches, Wizards and yes Mermaids too ... and all things mystical and magical and I love kids movies ... and I collect toys and I'm proud to say so. Although I could have done with less of the boy-swooning and more on Aquamarine, her father and her underwater world. Although the mermaid took a while to show up, but when she did the movie started to pick up more. She was innocent, lovely, but naive - and a pretty, skinny girl who *wasn't* a b!tch!! Good stuff! I liked Jo Jo and Emma as well. It was a cute movie. The mean chicks were lame, but they're lame in real life too. Cecilia's indignation near the end, to be dumped for a fish, cracked me up. Bullshark ... Who would you choose? A magical, mystical, majestic mermaid, or a mean, mediocre, moronic, muggle? I know who I'd choose! And those blue streaks rocked! It could have had a few more funny scenes though, say with Aquamarine freaking out about people eating fish ... and perhaps Cecelia making a big deal of eating a delicious battered fish near Aquamarine ... and her friends sheepishly try to tell Aquamarine that yes, people do eat fish ... And then Aquamarine squeals "Cooked fish?! Eww!! Gross!" And takes her friends to the sushi bar, leaving Cecelia like "what?!" ;) ... And at Cecelia's comments about the "Grandmother's convention" due to Aquamarine's blue streaks, it would have been funny if the mermaid had told her that Elder Women in her 'pod' have pink streaks, and such an honour will not be bestowed upon her for another 2580 years ... and leave Cecelia like ... huh? ;) ... Perhaps the fans should have a say in the script writing!And it seems some dimwits reviewing this movie didn't even *get* that there are many types of love - romantic being just one. Aquamarine's father, Poseidon~Neptune (King of the Seas), I presume, was touched by Hailey and Claire's love for their very special friend. Hailey even *said* so in the movie. Helooooooooooo!!! How more OBVIOUS can you get!!! Duh, people!!! Seems Mer-People have more brains than a lot of humans.I thought it was great how Aquamarine did not want to be human (this would have been so clichéd otherwise), though she fell in love with one. And the ending of the movie was much more realistic than most movies like these ... even parting the seas (pardon the pun, lol) for a sequel. I would love to see Hailey and her family visit Claire and Aquamarine swims all the way down to Australia ... Maybe her father will even give her a lift on a dolphin ;) ... And maybe I'll get to see her too and the blue streaked mermaid will take us to her world ...
