The Wilde Girls

"The Wilde Girls" is about a single mom (ONJ), vet, and ex-singer with a talented 14 year old daughter (Lattanzi) and the daughter's long estranged father (Ehlers) and a kookie friend (Kurtz) and reconciliation and forgiveness and...and...and stuff. A kind of wholesome and sentimental flick with some pretty good singing and some pretty awful acting and direction and a really corny story. It's pretty difficult to pick apart a film which has ONJ singing with her kid or singing to puppies but this is, by cinematic standards, pretty awful stuff. Recommended for teen females and their moms.

A nice feel-good 'teen music' telemovie starring real-life mother and daughter: Olivia Newton-John and Chloe Lattanzi. A similar film to the 2003 US/UK co-production "I'll Be There" with Charlotte Church, Craig Ferguson and Jemma Redgrave. Jasmine Wilde (Olivia Newton-John) is a single parent. What her teenage daughter, Izzy (Chloe Lattanzi), doesn't know is that her mother was formerly a pop star. Izzy has musical ambitions of her own and, finding out the truth about her mother's past, she beings to get the courage to follow her own dreams. Olivia Newton-John and daughter Chloe Lattanzi get the opportunity to sing together in this television production.

Maybe because ONJ has been my idol since I was a little girl but I loved this movie. I was watching the ONJ This is your life show and just saw that Wilde girls even existed. It sure wasn't promoted enough 20 years ago. I think that thecasting was great and I believe the acting was first rate. Obviously, it's not an Academy Award winner, it's not meant to be but it's a fun movie!!!

Unlike most of the comments, I enjoyed the movie. It was the best and it wasn't the worst, but it was cute and delightful to watch. I also enjoyed the music that was in the movie and just wanted to know if that was Chloe Rose singer or not. And also is there a soundtrack to this movie? I would really enjoy that. Thanks

Chloe Rose is great! Her acting and her singing were much much better than I had expected. Olivia did a wonderful job. I think this is her best role yet. This is a must see for all Olivia fans....actually, for everyone. Swoosie was hilarious. The music was awesome. I cannot get the songs out of my head. I wish there was a soundtrack!!!
