Such a frustrating disappointment
StunnaKrypto
Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

I've just watched 15 minutes of this show and had to turn it off. It's the most disgusting, offensive portrayal of materialism I've ever seen. I can't believe that MTV thought it would be a good idea to endorse this crap to impressionable, young minds.In my 15 minutes of horror, I witnessed a 16 year old girl purchase a £25,000 watch, an equally expensive chain and a £10,000 ring, all because her friends expect her to be "dripping in diamonds" on her birthday. At a gourmet restaurant she told her friends that she didn't want losers, chavs or ugly people at her party and to make an entrance, (when it came to inviting her adoring friends), her father rented a helicopter for her, so she could fly into her Mansion. MTV portrayed this as something positive and special. I would be ashamed if that was my daughter. No wonder so many children are desperate to be rich and famous, and so many young girls want to marry footballers (as their career!!), rather get a degree and expand their minds. The ambitions of our young are going down the toilet and MTV is partly responsible for that. They produce more and more shows like The Hills, Lacuna (or something) Beach, Cribs and My Super Sweet 16 and all it does is glamorize greed and excess. It's poor programming and I can't believe that a channel I used to watch religiously and be inspired by, would sink this low 15 years later.

There is another Jennifer Lopez on Da Block and her name is Audrey. Her Sweet 15 (not 16) is the funniest episode by far."They gonna be so jealous!"When the hoy-paloy strike gold - getting mega-rich for whatever dubious reasons that relate to either criminal activity or stretching their limited talents in some pathetic area of show-business (or both) - and then decide to produce offspring, making sure their questionable DNA doesn't expire as it should, this is the result. Kids like Audrey, La Lopez Jr: low-IQ geniuses with dozens of chips on their shoulders, screaming for attention by publicizing their birthday party mishaps on the most retarded music channel in the known universe."Millions will see my party! They'll be so jealous!" The only ones more daft than these hormonally-challenged teenie wonders (and that includes their equally bird-brained young party-guests/friends with zero dignity) are their infinitely clueless parents. (Seriously now, it's high time a law is passed which forbids people with an IQ lower than 90 to have kids.) Audrey's parents should receive a medal for creating such a luckless little teenie-bopping moron.Poor Audrey. What will she do when she sees this train-wrecking embarrassment of an episode ten years from now? Will she jump off a bridge? She probably doesn't even know what a bridge is. She's more likely to bring about another bone-chilling 150-decibel screaming fit, only that time she will be rewarded for it by ending up in a lunatic asylum instead of getting an expensive new car."You were supposed to give me de car on my birthday!! Bwaaa-bwaa! *sniffle*... sob..." Watching Audrey bitch, moan, sob and scream is how I envision the shooting of the average Jenny On Da Block MTV video. The only thing missing was a miniature Ben Affleck to complete the picture. The only difference between Audrey and Jennifer is that the latter has smaller breasts and an even lower education..."I don't care what those skanks think about de clothes! It's MY party!... They gonna wear them! They so jealous!!" Dear little gullible Audrey, the way she gets high on dozens of party guests telling her that she looks beautiful. She is so young, the "innocent" little cactus flower: she's never heard of concepts such as brown-nosing and mass hysteria. I know she was merely 15 (the most insecure, drooling, sulking and thumb-sucking phase in every woman's life) but she can't be that dumb... or? "Everyone gonna see how pretty I am! They'll be so jealous!" Even the most inferiority-complex-stricken fatsos among the other birthday kids in the Sweet 16 series don't seem to have quite as many mental problems and debilitating insecurities as this tiny Latina princess wannabe.Guess how Audrey would react if she ever read this text..."HE'S JUST JEALOUUUUS!!!!"Btw, the parents of these future failures are mostly show-biz bozos (such as Gnarles Barkley's singer) - and rarely lawyers or rocket scientists. A major misconception is that these specimen are typical of America's high-society. Not true.

WOW! I have never ever seen such spoilt brats like these girls. Don't their parents do anything about it? And they are only child's so they don't know what it is like to have the attention on other people i think. This show totally disappointed me. That is what is wrong with the world, people like those girl think they are large and in charge because their parents are super-rich and own a couple cars and a pool. They think that the world revolves around them (as a matter of fact it revolves around the sun!) and it is just annoying. Why do they have to act so B*t*y? Those girls AND their parents deserve a big a** kicking!! From everyone on the earth!! This show just shows how awful people can get. I am glad that there ARE some people in the world who are not self centred and so selfish. People like the people i know, not the people i see on My Super Sweet 16. It is quite weird how everything just gets better by the end of the party! This show just annoys me so much! Cant they have just a little small party or go to a restaurant? NO they have to make a name of themselves. I hope they will get taught a life lesson!!

Simply put, this show can be summarized in these short examples: DAD, YOU DIDN'T GET JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE TO PERFORM AT MY PARTY? WAHHHH!!!! YOU ONLY RENTED A 45 ROOM MANSION FOR MY PARTY? I WISH I WAS NEVER BORN!! WAHHH!!! A LEXUS SUV????? I WANTED A LEXUS CONVERTIBLE SPORTS CAR!! WHY DO YOU HATE ME MOM AND DAD!!! WAHHHH! WHY WON'T YOU GET ME A DRESS LACED WITH 1/10 KARAT GOLD THREADING AND OUTLINED IN DIAMONDS AND EMERALDS???? MY PARTY WILL BE RUINED! WAHHH!!"My Super Sweet 16" is basically 30 minutes of nothing but that. No matter how much money is spent on their 16th Birthday Party, the person turning 16 will complain.What is so special about turning 16 anyway? I remember my 16th birthday. I only had a get together with my close friends at my house. That was it. And the presents I got? Not much. Some money from relatives, a video game or two, and some other minor things. I didn't get a car, I had to pay for mine straight up with money I earned. So basically, if I got 1% of the stuff these kids get in "My Super Sweet 16" I would be very grateful.This show could have been something. MTV could have had this show revolve around 15 year olds from unpriveledged families and/or areas of the country who otherwise would not have had enough resources/money to throw a decent 16th birthday party. But instead, MTV decides to have the show revolve around extremely privileged and rich kids; whose parents probably make 6 figure incomes; and live in upscale, high end neighborhoods; in houses which the real estate value is probably over 1 million dollars. It's a real shame, because these kids are very ungrateful, even though their family has more money than just about most other families in the entire world.These kids will likely never understand what its like to be unpriveledged and have to earn or work for something. Instead, they will just cry to mommy and daddy whenever they want something and they will get it. And once they turn 18 and leave for college(which their parents will likely pay for all), they will just continue to live off of some trust fund for the rest of their lives without having to earn anything.The most telling thing about my review is that I am a conservative republican who gets tired of people complaining about the rich people in our country and think that the wealth should be spread around. I feel that rich people are rich because they work hard. With all that being said, I am still disgusted by the people and money spending in this show.This is a bad show. Only watch if you want to watch spoiled 15 year olds cry, kick, whine, moan, and make total fools of themselves, so you can feel good about yourself not being on the low level these kids are.MTV, Drugs, and Alcohol - The 3 brain rotting resources in the world
