Les Cheetah Girls

This is another made-for-TV film and as such is a film that is not high on intellectual output but, if you just sit down and as with Charlies Angels 1 and 2 (the ones with Cameron Diaz, Bill Murray etc.) leave your brain at the door and just enjoy the film for what it is (which is a film about four mid to late teens trying to make it big as self-choreographed (by one of the group members) singers in the music industry) then you should have no problem liking or even loving the film.

The film centres on four teenagers (the characters' ages not the actresses) but around them is the usual thoroughfare that is seen in these types of films. There was the unscrupulous record boss that wanted to change them and their style. There was the mother/manager that against her better judgement allowed her daughter and the group to almost get done by him and there was the silly ending that brought the girls back together after one was even less willing to follow the boss's ideas even more than the other three and walked away from the group. The other three eventually decided she was right and also left but by then the group was no more until the silly ending that is. Knowing and accepting that it was following the usual plot lines for this type of film meant it could be enjoyed and yes the second one was better but this one was by no means as bad as others have made it out to be. 8 out of 10 for me.

I didnt like the plot at all. It was pulled off alright, though...the movie did have many flaws..I give it a 2/5. First thing, i dont like the plot because its about four greedy girls who want fame, each in their own way. Raven's character was just selfish throughout the whole thing..and then when you think you have the characters figured out..the other three girls go and sellout. Next, lots of acting flaws...mainly the LIP SYNCHING. It became extremely obvious when they werent actually singing..i mean, lip synching is bad enough..but they couldnt do it. Then, the 3LW girls acted alright, though they did overact a lot unnecessary facial expressions ALL THE TIME)..a common acting flaw..nothing major. Other than the plot, some amateur acting, and other mess ups (guitars not being plugged in [laughed out loud when i saw that]..piano and drum sounds coming out of nowhere during the singing scenes, clean dog in hole becomes dirty when pulled out and then one minute later hes all clean again..)...everything else is done alright. I'd recommend this to younger viewers..older viewers would probably laugh at how fake the movie is...i know i did.

NOTE: I gave the movie a 2 based on the acting and the production of the movie..not the plot..if i was to rate the plot, i would have said 0..

I don't know if it was just me but i did not like this movie at all. Not because its so utterly predictable that a 2 yr old could write it bc the acting and storyline stunk. The girls are cute but the movie sucked. These are some parts that got me. I mean wut was up with the dog all of a suddenly running up on the stage while they were singing. Raven's tight but her character was a real B----. I agree with that other person. And also we know that in real life that the whole city would not be helping her get her dog out of the sewer. Lynn Withfield must have been desperate to play in this movie. The movie is about 4 chicks that wanna get a record deal from some big time producer they sing and dance most of the movie and u know what happens in the end.

As a child I loved this film. But as an adult; I am now noticing things in & about the characters in the film that just don't add up.. Someone or multiple someone's changed the ethnicity of one of the characters in the story from the 1st film to the 2nd.

I've read some of the comments on the cheetah girls movie, and I'm surprised at how hard the ADULTS have been on this movie. I'm 16 now, but this movie came out when I was 9 or 10. And all this talk about how unrealistic it was, is STUPID. Of course it's gonna be silly and unrealistic, but this is a CHILD'S MOVIE. Disney caters to ages 6-14, although at that time not many teens watched it so it was probably around 6-11 at the time. I LOVED the movie, and so did all of my friends. We didn't see these girls as rich (nor did we care) as some people have claimed, we didn't sit there contemplating the roles of the characters, and we didn't even think that no one would care about Toto being stuck in a hole at the end, because to us at that age, that was a plausible reason for the police and firefighters to come. Unrealistic? Maybe. But we were KIDS. We cared about Toto and the girls' friendship. Fame wasn't the moral to us, friendship was, at least, that's what I got out of it. So before you rate this like it's an adult/teen lifetime/feature film, think about it from the standpoint of who it was made for, the kids.
