Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

Motompa Go in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.

Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

menipappastoronto Ok so this movie was so much fun to watch! Don't let the average review stray you away from watching this! It was light hearted, made me laugh and smile. Of course it was one of those predictable story lines and chessy at times but sometimes these are just the types of movies you need. It brought me back to when I was younger and I loved it.

studioAT As a vehicle for the rising star that is Emma Roberts this film works well. Although the other youngsters do well in their roles, its Roberts who shines in every scene.She manages to be spoilt, funny, pretty and vulnerable all at the same time, and that's not easy to do in a script that doesn't seem to know whether its aiming for the teen or adult audience.There are some fun life lessons to be learnt here, and it certainly has its heart in the right place. It's not worth wasting time asking questions about the plot, or thinking about the very cringy not funny moments featuring Jason Watkins, because this film really is all about fun.It's not surprising that Emma Roberts went on to do bigger and better things after this, because she's fab here.

Sherazade This is perhaps Emma Roberts's answer to her aunt Julia's 'Pretty Woman', it wasn't that bad, I mean she did not come off as a wanna-be Julia Roberts but something was just off with the film. The first half seemed like the director was trying too hard to get the audience to believe that sweet little Emma Roberts could be so bratty. I enjoyed it, but it could have been better. There were way too many spoofs (Kiera Knightley, Kate Winslet, Sporty Spice, Ashley Tisdale, Brenda Song etc. etc.) for my liking and Alex Pettyfer was given too little to do in the film. It was Natasha Richardson's(R.I.P.) last film and she held her own but other than that, the film was just average.

brownah18 Emma Roberts is Poppy Moore and she has a problem with getting out of hand. So, it's her last straw and her father Gerry (Aidan Quinn) to a boarding school in England called Abbey Mount which was started in 1797. Poppy is greeted by Mrs. Kingsley (Natasha Richardson), who is the Head Mistress tells Poppy that she will try to make her experience less difficult than it should be. Matron (Shirley Henderson) plays sort of a nanny type character who keeps the girls in line and takes away their cell phones on the first day. People at the school don't follow Poppy's lingo which makes it rather funny to watch. Being bullied by the head girl Harriet (Georgia King) is always fighting with Poppy because she does not like her.Her friends in her room which includes a girl called Drippy (Juno Temple) who you might remember from Year One, help her to try and get expelled because she doesn't fit in. When Poppy finally figures out its not such a bad place because she has some good friends, a guy named Freddie (Alex Pettyfer) who likes her, and that her mother went to the same school she does not want to leave anymore.This movie is mostly a chick flick, but I've had my fair share of watching movies like this when it's hard to believe. Roberts character is done so well by her and she is funny and quick witted. I remember last seeing her in Nancy Drew, even then I knew she was going to be in more movies to come and grow with her career in acting. I'm sorry to say, but this was Natasha Richardson's last movie as it is sad to see her go. Married to Liam Neeson, in March 2009, she died suddenly, after falling and receiving a head injury whilst skiing in Mont Tremblant, Quebec, Canada. She will always be remembered and never forgotten. All in all, this movie was funny and you should get together with some girlfriends and check it out.
