LOL

The best part of texting while walking is the protective bubble it creates around you, staving off danger.

LOL! This dramedy isn't about distracted pedestrians surviving collisions with LRT, but the tribulations of the e-generation.

Lola (Miley Cyrus) is a contemporary teenager. She communicates via characters and has a super cute BF (George Finn).

But when he cheats on her, she hooks up with his friend (Douglas Booth), who is lusted after by Lola's nemesis (Ashley Greene).

Meanwhile, Lola's single-mother (Demi Moore) finds her diary and decides to cancel her class trip to Paris. All the while juggling her ex (Thomas Jane) and her younger crush (Jay Hernandez).

Though it attempts to be a comedic commentary on today's parent/child relationships, this American version of a French film is merely a vapid snapshot of this electronic epoch.

On the bright side, Miley Cyrus texting is less annoying than Miley Cyrus talking. (Red Light)

Now, I wouldn't call this movie necessarily a bad one but it in fact is lacking a purpose and doesn't make a point or has a clear message in it, in any way or form.

Quite frankly, I just can't understand how adults could be involved with this movie. It's a movie about teenagers, so its set in a teenage world, with teenage rules. It's about the sort the sort of the stuff that only seems to be important when you are still at a young age and far from adulthood. Well, I say teenagers but of course all of them are being played by some 20-year old's, which is something pretty obvious and annoying about this movie as well.

And really, this entire movie seems to about a bunch of non-issues. I just don't see what the big 'conflict' is supposed to be in this movie and there is just never any sense of true drama in the movie. This is mostly what makes this movie such a pointless watch. Crazy thing about the movie is that you can watch just and only the first 5 and last 5 minutes of this movie and you won't feel like you missed anything because of the simple reason that you also haven't done so. The characters and situations are still being mostly the same at the end of the movie. Perhaps they could had still made this movie somewhat interesting by making it a coming-of-age movie but all this movie seemed to be concerned about was appealing to young teens, who perhaps will be able to identify with some of the characters and situations in this movie but I just can't even imaging them being all that entertained by this movie. There is just far too little happening for that.

It's also a movie that confuses and does some stupid things. I swear at first I thought that some of the characters were 'bad guys' but as the movie progressed it suddenly became apparent to me that they were part of the friend-group of the movie and you were even supposed to like these characters. And that's also a problem of the movie. Most of the character aren't really being sympathetic enough to ever care for or be interested enough in.

Also an odd thing to see some big name actors in a movie like this. Demi Moore, Thomas Jane, Gina Gershon, Jay Hernandez, all play some quite big parts. Perhaps they were just eager to appear in a Miley Cyrus movie, who is still being a hot young star but isn't exactly known for doing great movies.

Pointless movie, that is pointless to watch.

Okay first things first, you should know that this movie is a remake of a crappy French movie of the same name. If that doesn't deter you from watching, then maybe knowing that Miley Cyrus is starring as the lead role does.

I never had high hopes for this movie especially since Lionsgate completely shunned the marketing team and had no effort in making sure that this movie gets some much needed publicity. But aside from that, this movie isn't really targeted for people like me. It seems to focus on its teen demographic, hell the title says it all...LOL.

Now I'm not hating on Miley Cyrus or anything but God that girl really brought down the movie. I thought that she could maybe prove that she can act and switch away from that Hannah Montana crap, but no, she cannot. And having Demi Moore didn't help either. It's like the cast had every intention to make a god-awful movie that only teenage girls would barely like.

Overall, the movie was your average run of the mill, teenage love affair crap. If you're a guy then stay the hell away from this movie, but if you're a girl then...no, you should also stay away from this movie.

If there's one way to describe this movie, it would be utterly atrocious, execrable trash. In no way are there any redeeming qualities in this "film" as it is filled with a moronic plot, hideous dialog(if you can call it that)banal acting and overall crap. The whole thing is a ruse; it looks like a low-budget made-for-TV film that ironically enough SHOULD HAVE BEEN A MADE-FOR-TV FILM IN THE FIRST PLACE!!! I'm sorry, but after Hanna Montana and the atrocious film that followed it, Miley Cyrus's career as an actress is pretty much in the toilet. Only a wickedly hardcore Miley Cyrus fan would watch this because any self-respecting movie-lover would stay clear away from this hell-hole of a movie.

1 out of 5 stars. That's how bad this piece of sh*t is.

I'm going to summarize here:

This "film" bears about as much connection with modern society as KFC represents the life of Chickens. Not only is it the most cheese filled pap ever, it's a walking cliché and the people in it, even say the word "LOL" rather than actually laughing, in one scene; one person even rolls around the floor laughing when she is told a joke by her friend, and it wasn't even funny.

The entire dialogue in this film looks as if it has actually been written on a Nokia 3310 by a 10 year old boy, who has ADHD, no offence to people who actually HAVE ADHD, but seriously, it's like they've given a child three things:

1. MDMA.

2. 90 Blank Sheets of Paper and a typewriter.

3. 2 Days to complete it.

The acting is below par and even in one scene, it is blatantly obvious that the actress has forgotten her lines, so she seems to make her line up on the spot. How on earth did Demi Moore get roped into this? Demi Moore has made some god awful movies in her time, but this will be a black hole on her CV for many years to come and I imagine she is only kicking herself to the loony bin for partaking in this absolute rubbish.

Then I have to mention the obvious fake posts on here which are condoning and praising this teeny bopper movie, which is obviously made to capitalise on fans of the girl out of this, kids who are grounded and have to use their phones as a social outlet, LOL, and teen kids who have nothing better to do with their money than go and see how the media thinks they should live their lives.

Anyone paying to watch this god awful trash should take themselves and get counselling, go and see a doctor, because whilst there are thousands and thousands of good script writers trying to earn a living, thousands of actors trying to break through; and thousands of budding directors just aching for a chance to even get 1% of this budget for their work; production companies are still lying and pulling the wool over our eyes with pap like this.

If you are fan of the girl in this film, think about it, and think about it hard!!!

If you actually like this girl, then you will NOT go and put money into the pockets of the greed ridden pigs who are actually trying to exploit YOU as well as your idol. So I'm not going to give you grief for liking this girl; like most will, but seriously think about it before you part with your money. If this film does even remotely well, the fat corporate pigs will only release more pap with her in, to try and prize YOUR hard earned money from your hands, and in turn, the big wheel of fortune will grind away on YOU and ONLY YOU!

It says something when a production company pull out of post production marketing like they did on this kids, they want to BURY it without trace, because they know how terrible this film truly is!

Fair enough, watch it on cable (it will be on there soon enough), download it from some kind of torrent site, but whatever you do, do NOT go and spend a penny of your money on this, you will regret it for years to come.

Long live the free thinkers.

A monotonous, dreadful film that follows the gimmicks of social networking and text messaging. I wouldn't classify this as a movie; it falls along the lines of high school trauma and the depressing pokes of a Facebook page. The acting was sub-par and the love story was the equivalent of rusty nails while it focuses on the redundant internet slang we constantly see today. The whole feeling of the film was basically like looking at a Facebook page. Very dull and asinine with the sense of delusional romance forever reminding us how little hope remains for todays youth. If this is what you call quality entertainment then I fear for the sanctity of our Media. Major waste of filming resources and should be shot into the sun for the sake of humanity.

I regret going to see this movie. Says it all. I was dragged along to it by an overly excited friend who wanted to see it. I couldn't of despised this movie more if I tried. The only difficulty about this now is trying to reach the minimum requirements for the length of this review.

Right, so I expect people seem like they know what to expect with this movie. Otherwise, why go see it. Miley plays nothing more than how she does on her TV series. A ditsy girl with poor use of English. Which isn't surprising.

If I had to recommend this to someone, it would be those under 11 years of age.

One good thing about the experience of seeing this.. "movie" was that I felt relief when it was over.

But hey, if you want to waste some cash with minimal physical and, let's face it.. mental effort, then see this wasted reel of film. 1/10.

I first watched LOL when I was 11 or 12 and recently bought it on DVD and rewatched it, I'm now 20. I don't understand why there are so many negative reviews, yeah obviously it's not the best film ever made but these people giving it terrible reviews are obviously the wrong demographics. it is obviously aimed at tweens and young teenaged girls. It's very cliche and very cheesy, but i think if you seen it were you were young and re watch it it's very nostalgic. It actually gave me goosebumps haha but yes it's a rom com and the acting isn't amazing but it's not awful and I have a soft spot because I loved it so much as a child but I can understand if you hadn't seen it when you were younger I could understand why some scenes are a bit cringe but I think it's great and doesn't deserve the extreme hate.

In the movie, LOL, the character, Lola, has a poster for the smash-hit, Juno, hanging in her bedroom. I know, I know. Analyzing a detail as small as this might sound nitpicky but just hear me out.

Juno was a movie about a teenager who addressed the people she loved and the people she had problems with, in person. Juno revealed an ultrasound picture of her baby to its future adoptive parents, in person. She laid out an entire living room set on Paulie Bleeker's front lawn, to tell him she was pregnant, in person. The reason its main character maintained quick-witted comebacks and came up with ironic allegories, at the drop of a hat, was because of her characteristic of going out and exploring new things. That movie was so refreshing because it took place in a world in which teenagers didn't constantly have the glow of a cell phone screen, reflecting off of their faces. In fact, there was only one part in the film involving a phone conversation between two people...and both sides had their phones plugged into a jack!

So why does LOL's mentioning of such a great movie bother me? Because its own message contradicts Diablo Cody's vision and her faith in teenagers. Cody believed in a world in which adolescents might actually look up from their gadgets, turn to each other and like, talk. Hell, there actually is a scene from Wall-E, in which two morbidly obese men favor looking at monitors with video feed each other, when they're in floating chairs, side by side. Juno spits in the face of such technological dependence.

LOL, on the other hand, condones the non-stop usage of iPods, Twitter and other sites of the moment. Its lead characters are so reliant of online social networks, where every sentence is simplified and shortened, that once they finally log off, they use phrases like "it's good to love someone so much it hurts." A line like that wouldn't even make it into Juno's deleted scenes section on the DVD. LOL celebrates the idea of kids, hunching their heads over a five by three inch screen all day long, as the rest of the world passes them by. Don't get me wrong - I'm well aware that there actually are teenagers in the world who are this overly consumed. With it being near impossible to find a person between the ages of 18 and 29 NOT on a phone within a three hour period of time, writer and director, Lisa Azuelos, isn't exactly making up fiction here. But to try to portray these hypnotized kids as deep thinking and complex is wrong. How could they have the drive to reflect on who they are when they don't even put effort into typing out full words into text messages? Like I said, it's fine for characters like these to exist because there are real world people like this. But don't try dragging another film down to your level when it boasts unexplained emotions, open for interpretation while your own best moment of self-reflection consists of the line "Every year, it's weird going back to school but here we are, just going with the flow". Oo-hoo-hoo, look out, Hemingway.

I thought this movie so was cute. Had all the checks for me!! Funny, sad, music and relationships!! Excellent movie!! I will refer friends to watch and I will watch it again!! I cant believe just two stars!!! Good job cast and crew!!

LOL (2012)

* (out of 4)

Lisa Azuelos remakes her own French movie. This one here has Miley Cyrus playing a teen who seems obsessed with sex, drugs and music, which is something her single mom (Demi Moore) doesn't know about. I'm guessing that's the so-called plot to this film but the truth is that plot and this movie really don't go together. I can't comment on the original film since I haven't seen it yet but this thing here pretty bad but thankfully it's so bad that most people should be able to get a couple good laughs out of it. I think what really kills the movie is the fact that every character from the teens to their parents are just downright idiots. I mean, the Moore character is without question one of the dumbest mothers I've ever seen from any movie. Just watch the way the character pretty much can't put her foot down on anything and the scene where Cyrus talks her out of taking her phone away is just embarrassing. Even worse is a sequence later on when mommy and daughter have it out after mom reads her diary and notices all the things she's been up to. Not only the entire sequence unintentionally funny, the performances by the two actresses is just embarrassing. Cyrus really comes off bad here because she can't handle what limited range the character has. The scenes with her crying are just poorly done and I can't say I believed anything she did here. Moore isn't quite as bad but she's burdened by the horrid character. Even Gina Gershon, Ashley Greene and Thomas Jane can't do anything. Everything from the dialogue to the actual story is just really bad and there's really nothing good to mention here outside the use of a certain Rolling Stones song. What keeps LOL watchable is how bad it manages to be and I'm going to guess that the only people this thing will appeal to are those who enjoy movies that are so bad they're watchable.

It's a movie you can watch easily.Doesn't require any attention 'cause the plot is very simple.It's just another chick-flick.The cast is good. And actors' interpretations are surprisingly good.Gives you quite monoptical view of teenagers life,but has some real world problems which was an good thing to notice.Music is good.But the plot is very empty.The scene were Miley snicks Douglas in the host home is really stupid.They could have thought of something much better.It is worth watching if you're a teen girl.Nothing that will blow your mind.I am not sure if the relationship between the two protagonists is what a relationship really is or what it should be,so the message that comes about relationships isn't a healthy one.

this is THE WORST MOVIE I HAVE EVER SEEN there was no acting !!.This is not a movie this is a documentary of how not to make a movie.movie. Miley Cyrus acting sucked worse than watching paint dry on a iceberg.It seems like the director gave up within ten seconds as the trailers for other movies had better action than this whore of a film. Everything about this movie makes me throw up blood it is horrible why call a film LOL when there is no humour I really don't understand it.

My daughter watched the first minute of this movie and is now in intensive care. Every day she bangs her head so hard on he wall she creates deformities in her ovaries. She cries so much that she has to drink 56 gallons of vodka every hour. She has a liver transplant every day. Miley Cyrus is my sons worst nightmare and every night he wakes up screaming so loud that he bursts his own ear drums. Overall it was rubbish never watch if you like bad movies this is your worst nightmare! Myley Cyrus deserves a BAFTA.

Despite knowing the cast before seeing LOL, I decided to keep an open mind. I always feel as though I can examine something in further detail if I put aside all previous knowledge of the subject. This attitude quickly changed.

Another perfect demonstration of Miley Cyrus' rise to fame surfing on her father's back. As per usual, zero effort put in to her performance. This becomes increasingly worsened via the slaughter of what was once an excellent script. Humour (if it can even be referred to as such) pushed to its very limits; and scenes that had viewers covering their faces as though ashamed to be seen as they fled the cinema before even 20 minutes in.

What amuses me the most however, is that this actually seems to be getting positive feedback from a very small, direct audience. Simple movies for simple minds I suppose.

The first Hollywood film to premiere in India this year, which is quite apt since I suppose audiences in India can appreciate remakes upon remakes hitting their screens every now and then, since different movie regions in India have cross-made their films especially if they are financially successful. This version of LOL is a second generation remake, with the original film made with French actress Sophie Marceau playing the role of Miley Cyrus' titular role of Lola, before switching to play Demi Moore's role of mom in writer-director Lisa Azuelos' 2006 version, who then decided to direct the same film all over again, this time with Hollywood money.

I suppose it's tough getting bored when doing the same project, albeit with a different cast bringing different sensibilities to the table, and of course, being set in different countries allowed for an exploration of the modern / current day teenage trials and tribulations, and see how they would have differed from the very first film. For starters, this is an out and out teenage chick flick, set in high school where topics are rather constricted, ranging from bad grades to boys, to hot teachers and cliques, circle of trust and betrayals, and so on. High schools make for very fertile ground as a story setting, but you really can't get away from the formula, even if technology from webcams to IM chat sessions enter to spice things up a little

Miley Cyrus had a scene involving smoking of drugs here cut out, because a real life shenanigan blew way out of control with the teenage idol hell bent and desperate to leave behind her Disney child-friendly persona of Hanna Montana. Be it having provocative personal pictures making their way online, to recreational drug use or otherwise, the filmmakers probably thought it best to leave behind the negative publicity, and cut that out of the film. Which didn't do the flow any favours at times, with other less than stellar editing efforts such as a following scene that contradicted what was said before.

In any case Cyrus plays Lola, a teenager who opens the film being dumped by her boyfriend Chad (George Finn), and we'd just about know that she'll fall head over heels with her best male buddy Kyle (Douglas Booth) especially after gushing ad nausem about him and confessing so in her secret diary. But the road to true romance is always a bumpy ride, so you can bet your last dollar it has to deal with misunderstandings which led to temporal breakups and the like, not to mention falling school grades all over the shop make school life quite the bane to a relationship. Kyle too has issues with his dad's frowning upon his musical CCA, but since this is a chick flick, who really cares about the male characters anyhow, except when they fail to pout and look hot.

Subplots in the film that pad it up include a focus on Lola's best friend Emily (Ashley Hinshaw), who has the hots for her math teacher (Austin Nichols) with dream boat looks, and is the female equivalent of a Stifler or that obligatory rude, shock jock in any teenage sex comedy, and of course, Mom Anne, which the film splits 50-50 with her own relationship, being unable to move on from the husband (Thomas Jane) she divorced, and being at the crossroads to begin one with a rather persistent cop James (Jay Hernandez). Plus the dynamics between mother-daughter getting the highlights and focus as well, between Anne and Lola where sometimes they drive each other nuts, only to always inherently realize blood runs thicker than water.

LOL, after so many iterations, came off as flat and offered little surprises to fans of such films, who lap it up only because of a different cast. It's the usual chick flick dealing with rudimentary issues for its formula, which in real life may not even be issues at all. It's mildly amusing with nary a class act from anyone in their delivery, and perhaps it's that generation gap that's fast driving a wedge between myself and issues brought up in the film which may seem like a big deal for one growing up. Surely it's a coming of age tale, but I'm not getting it, nor am I the right demographic targeted to begin with.

Just took the time to watch this movie, as it was one of PirateBay's most downloaded.

I honestly can not understand how anyone manages to do enough drugs to imagine this would be a good movie when writing the script. Luckily enough for me I was smart enough to not spend any money to watch the movie. I do however feel that I've not only been robbed for my time, but also for all of the knowledge I've ever gathered over the years. I am certain that at one point I could feel my brain melting away.

I still do not understand the plot of the movie as there was no red string connecting the movie, and it would jump from one story to another without ever finishing what it started. I am left feeling empty, as I don't know for instance what happened to Kyle and his dad after the Battle of the Bands.

If I would have to recommend this movie to anyone, it would be for brain dead tweens who believe that Europe is a country located in the United States, and that Justin Bieber is the greatest thing to happen to this world since the invention of make-up and hair straighteners.

Seriously, don't waste your time watching the movie, as you will most likely suffer severe brain damage afterward, and have troubles remembering anything useful that you've ever learned.

1/10

I am embarrassed to be of the same species as the people who produced this film. They must have been smoking crack cocaine up their anus. Like I've seen bad films. I've seen horrible films. I've seen films that make me want to throw up and then eat my puke. But this is beyond that. I'd rather shove King Kong up my butt while shoving my balls in a crocodile's mouth than watch this again. It will forever wonder me what the screenwriter was thinking when he made this film. I personally am a professional writer, and I struggle to think of who is capable of creating this crime against humanity. If I ever build a time machine and kill one person in history, it would be the director of this steaming pile of goat droppings.

I would give this movie a 7.5 or 8.

This movie wasn't exceptional; it won't win an Oscar or a people's choice award, but it wasn't a waste of time to see. I've seen the original LOL (subtitles and all) and I don't understand how this one was "worse" or "mocking" it. I enjoyed it. It was a good way to spend my evening. Miley Cyrus executed her character well. People are giving her a bad rep because of her previous movies; I'm not the biggest fan of hers myself. However, she did well in this movie. It wasn't a hard part to play but she did well. And all the other characters did well too. Between the original movie and this one, nothing was different except that this one was in English and had different actors.

This movie won't change your life by all means, but if you're looking for a romantic teen movie to watch, this one will serve you well. It's meant for teens (just like the writer/director envisioned) so don't go in expecting "The Notebook" because it will not give you what you're looking for. I hope this helps.

This is by far the worst piece of sh*t I've ever seen. The acting is terrible, the direction (if you could even call it that) is awful, and the story is down right unrealistic, pretentious, and ridiculous. Every minute that I sat through this garbage I was pondering whether or not to scratch my eyes out of my head or jump off of the tallest building I could find, neither of which would have taken this movie to the burners. Miley Cyrus is by far the WORST actress of all time, narrowly beating the entire cast of The Room for that title. Demi Moore is completely idiotic in this film, trying her best to portray a mother but only falters as the task despite being a mother herself to children in the same age bracket. The supporting cast, made up of Thomas Jane, Jay Hernandez, Fisher Stevens and Gina Gershon try to elevate this direct to DVD film with an unsuccessful result. The film's story is horrendous, it tries to convey high school filled with overbearing clichés that have been done better and more tastefully in other previous films. Overall, STAY AWAY FROM THIS FILM!!!! It should come with a warning on the DVD case reading: MAY CAUSE SUICIDAL THOUGHTS. Yes, it is THAT bad. You've been warned.

I don't understand why there are so many negative comments on this movie, seems like people have personal grudge on Miley... c'mon!! This movie is so damn good, it's about teen relationships, friendships in school, parental stuff it's like everyone can connect to this movie, it brings back all your memories it's so simple and that's the beauty of this movie. I just loved it. You can watch this whenever you are bored.

Cheesy, lame but for girls night to look at couple of hot guys is not bad

You can change your status, but not your heart. When reading this tag line you can get an instant view of the movie. Talentless, boring, and needs to be changed. It was so unrealistic, and I don't even want to waste words on a review for this movie. How can you make such a rubbish movie?!? First 5 mins of this film you have an irritating voice over thats not one bit meaningful or says anything useful. With a film like this you wouldn't expect this as the concept is actually good, but I don't think I could say another good thing about it.

0/10 Not worth it. Take it back and make a film, not a school project where your trying to find out how a camera works.
