La voix du succès

In a world of music, losing control is part of being on top. The story propels you forward into a world that few make it in, and very few make Celebrity status. As if being a star isn't enough, in music, you want to be a Celebrity! Especially if you want to be around for a while, it's the ultimate challenge. Newcomers have it tough going through their neophyte or fledging stages. Cheating isn't easy with a public that is sophisticated, demanding, and skeptical. The story lets us view the world from the artist that is climbing socially, politically, and financially. The real shame is the lack of preparation on her part, and naivete to fake it... But as always, the truth comes out.

Nothing heavy and deep, but wholesome entertainment if you are in the mood for something light and funny. If you happen to be a fan of either Karin Wuhrer (Salin)[formerly of the series 'Sliders', and in 'Hotblooded'] and or Gail O'Grady [lately in 'Another's Woman's Husband', and the new series 'American Dreams'] (as I am), then this is something you don't want to miss. Looks like some people are just too heavy handed to appreciate something that is just light fare, and should be taken as such. ;-)

That's about the only good thing I can say about this sapball, cornfest. One thing of interest, seeing as this is supposed to be a feel-good movie in the end, is that it's actually a very mean-spirited movie...

I was disappointed how Kari Wuhrer (did I mention she was babelicious, as she always is?) was treated in the end, when she did nothing to deserve the treatment she got, when in fact all hurt feelings and snickering should have went towards the record industry, instead of her. But I digress.

This is TV movie of the week stuff, with bad acting, bad plot and an unbelievable Hollywood ending. No points to VH1 for this one, folks. It's pretty lame.

See it only for Kari, who I'd chop off my middle finger to be with (if you know what I mean)... Otherwise, avoid.

This movie was all standard tv movie. The acting not really there, and the plot did not develop with the characters. Like many TV movies this one had unfinished side-plots that either left the viewer wondering what happened or not really carring at all. The only part of this movie i liked was the fact that it was showing the real side of corprate manufactured music. All in all the movie was average (for a tv movie) nothing special and no 'breakthrough' acting.

This movie is an embarrassment to film-making. I can't believe it was even listed as a comedy - not funny. Not only was the script atrocious, but the casting people should be shot. Gail O'Grady is just a great actress, but beyond that... %99 of the rest of the cast...ouch. Pretty much everyone else...wow it is hard to even...wow. Here is the number one rule about comedy "DON'T TRY TO BE FUNNY". There are a lot of very talented actors in Canada who can do drama and comedy - none of them were used in this film. Canadian nepotism and casting directors are helping to perpetuate bad film-making in Canada. I realize this is technically a "US" film, but look at the director, actors, location, etc. I just saw this on Bravo - they should be ashamed that they bought the rights to show this film. Again, there are a lot of great films out there that can't get airtime and they show this crap.
