Having just watched the film, all i can say is that it certainly offers more than what you would expect from a Disney movie. One could say this is the best Disney film since... Pulp Fiction. I say that because Disney, as we all know, delivers crap after crap after crap.
The script is witty, the execution is even wittier and even though it's all so predictable( who doesn't guess what happens in the end?) it manages to breathe life into everything. From the most typical brother-sister fight to the obligatory emotional mother-daughter sequence. It does indeed has lots of flaws, i mean who has seen a more clean cut rock band, in a movie, than this? But when you get into the core of the movie, it gets warm, it worked for me that's for sure because, being a teenager myself, i could (partially) relate to the "angst" and "rebellion"--which by the way (as Roger Ebert correctly noted) is typical behaviour, but in the world of Disney it becomes "disturbing"--whatever!
The direction was quirky enough and had a kind of energetic feel to it. Like Paul thomas anderson, only dumbed down and with more cuts. It worked for the most part, i mean it was just right for the material... The use of the music was nice enough, although it could have used some less mainstream and less popular songs--we 've heard them a gazillion times already!--but they worked, did the job and that's that. But Lohan's band, even though clean cut, rocked harder than the one in "School of Rock", which was kinda lame, i know they were just kiddies but c'mon (although the movie had a better soundtrack...by the way). I was surprised by the quality of the band's music, never expected something like that in Disney movie.
All in all, it's fun and surprisingly watchable. What else can you ask from Disney pictures? Enjoy.
6/10

I don't need to say that i only rented the movie because i saw Alex Proyas name on it. Ofcourse i had read some reviews and seen some pretty slick pics on the net, so i knew what i was getting into. Although i was quite sure that it was a hot potato i expected some style from Proyas, some darkness despite the original premise. What i got wasn't from what i expected, style-wise. Quality-wise though...
The movie started off, more or less like "Snatch" or "Lock Stock..." choose your preference, anyways, quick cuts, some rather silly jokes, freeze frames et la. I though of just stopping the flick and go see a real movie on the nearby theatre. But naw, i just could not, i 've never done that, so why now? I MEAN it didn't suck THAT MUCH. This had all the trademarks of an Alex Proyas movie, i mean it ain't no "Planet of the Apes"(in this one you can tell who directed it), the rock music is here, as a matter of fact The CURE are here as well, the stylish dark kind of MTV shots are here, slow motion clear and present, a pinch darkness? Here as well. But despite having all these elements, i just couldn't stop wondering, what attracted Proyas to the project, it's fairly average if not total garbage of a script. Although not cliched, it has its fair share of wickedness, some funny moments, some chilling moments and some slapstick, but overall it is a mess. What it needed was wit but It lacked wit, it could have worked if there were some Woody Allen or Kevin Smith one-liners--their movies lack srtucture too anyway!--. The music now: as i said it's quite cool, not The Crow kind of cool but still it was a pretty nice little collection of songs, these were used nicely through out the movie, sometimes effectively, most of the times just to provoke feelings that the actors are unable to communicate.
What made the movie worthwhile though, was the fact that it had a few set-pieces which were cool, like a certain bloody bath tub or that slow-mo(bullet time you say?) rain, which looked obviously phony but still that is what makes them attractive. Acting is fairly average, Haley Joel Osment could act the feminine parts better than these gals...not to mention the guys parts the governor of California could kick some serious acting but here! The cinematography is moody at times, there are some new hotties coming out of this flick(no not that leading lady! But surely the other two ladies are certainly going to Hollywood...although they shouldn't really act..if you know what i mean)but other than that... A Final notice i hope I, ROBOT is a return to form, cause this gives Alex a bad name. I mean man! Get a hold of yourself! You've seen it before, it's tv-movie quality, it wanted to be ALMOST FAMOUS--but it's just shite.
