CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
monstermonkey13 There is a lot of back and forth on if this show is good or bad and if there is no strong roll model and too much sex. Well the show starts out with a spunky 15 year old girl who wins a contest for a song she wrote and performed on a TV show. A little unbelievable, yes, but it's what the show is about. She very quickly is thrown into the whole fame bit; concerts, fans, manager/producer, etc. In the first few seasons, Jude, the main character, is faced with normal every day challenges as well as not so normal challenges. But the point is, that through it all, she sticks to her beliefs in the end. She does not have sex of any kind until the 4th and final season, so all the talk about too much sex is wrong. Yes there may be a bit of kissing, but it's not too bad till about season 2. Not that it ever gets really bad at all. I'd say that 95% of the kissing on this show is a major point in the show that is justified by the story line, it's not just another make out scene to wrangle the teenagers into watching it. I personally do believe the character is a fairly good role model for young ladies. She abstains from sex until she is absolutely sure she is ready and old enough, and follows her heart instead of letting a relationship hold her back from what she really wants to do. Yes, at times the main character, as well as some others, can be rather selfish, but can you say there was never a time that you weren't as well? All in all, if I had a teenage girl, I'd let her watch the show with no worries as to what she might pick up from it. I do enjoy degrassi too, but that show would show off more sex in it. Most of the characters lose their virginity well before their 18th bday, heck some of them get pregnant and have abortions before they are even old enough to understand real responsibility. So in comparison, is Instant star really that bad?
reality_is_a_prison I love Instant Star. I didn't like Alexz when she replaced Fi on So Weird because I liked Fiona and was used to her character and no "spirit animals"(like Alexz's). I know it wasn't really her fault. The actress wanted to leave the show and Alexz stepped in. I love Alexz Johnson. Alexz is a great actress. I saw commercials for this show at my friend's apartment at first and I was curious. I have loved the show since it's first episode and it has aways became better and better. I can completely relate to Jude, from people not being what they seem and trying to hurt to her to her parents not being quite who they seem. I love the music. The themes are interesting, thought provoking and identifiable. I can not wait for the 4th season. I wish it would air. SOON.
Aubrey Althaea This show is addicting, every single little thing about it is perfect. It's sweet, funny, and unique. It is different from other shows, since it explores different issues, of those in the music industry. You learn so much about Jude, a girl who has trouble to survive in this fast-paced industry, and to make things worse for her, she starts falling for her producer. All of the actors portray their characters excellently, the plot lines, to be honest, can get a little too dramatic. But nevertheless, the songs are so beautiful, it is pretty much the only thing you'll be listening to for a while.This show is amazing, it's worth watching for sure.
Salamander Newt Instant Star is a show that gives nothing positive for children to look up to. The frequent making-out scenes with various characters trading boyfriends is sad. This show glorifies being a shallow, vacuous, airhead. This show glorifies cheating and moving ahead based on who you know, not what you know. I don't think that a single episode has shown anyone trying to do their homework, going to school, or doing anything that has to do with education. It is all about the characters getting their relationship grooves on.The few scenes that show anyone working on their music in the studio are always set up so that ten seconds later one of the girls is making out with her producer or someone from the band. The other time-waster is the characters complaining about how unhappy they are, or talking about their relationships. Not to mention that the woman who plays Jude is supposed to be 15 years old but she looks about 35. Most of the other so-called teens look way into their twenties. Maybe Noggin was concerned that this show would get banned if they used actual teenagers? That this show is marketed towards teenagers is pathetic, especially since it is on Noggin, which presumably is not supposed to greedily exploit the curiosity of young people who are the target audience of this horrible show.
