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!!!
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!!!
This isn't a great film, I'll admit, but I have seen worse.
My only issue with this film is that Chloe Rose, the girl who plays the singer in the film, really isn't a very good singer - I find her Mariah Carey-esque warbling a bit grating. Still, she plays the part quite well and luckily there isn't too much singing.
Olivia Newton-John doesn't do herself justice in this role - but not every part can match Sandy in Grease I suppose, and she does do okay in it. I much prefer her singing to that of Chloe Rose's.
It is a bit of a generalization, but I would suggest this is a nice film to be watched by a mother and daughter - a silly, light-hearted film, semi-dramatic and quite heart-warming. Don't expect much or look at it too critically - it is only 90 minutes long and it is nice enough.

I felt the need to add a bit of perspective to the single "awesome" comment. I watched this film because I had absolutely nothing better to do, and I 'm compelled to say that it's one of the worst things I've ever seen. The plot is hackneyed, the dialog is trite, and the acting is mediocre (with the exception of Swoosie Kurtz's -- I hope she got paid a lot to associate herself with a project of this nature). There's also a bunch of cheesy locations, poorly used.
Chloe Lattanzi, while possessed of modest musical and acting capabilities, lacks the prettiness her mother possessed in her prime. It's clear that this is film is intended as a vehicle for Chloe, and it's equally clear that it's a quixotic attempt.
There's really only one original song, repeated ad infinitum, and it was apparently composed by Olivia. If you think "I Honestly Love You" is a pop landmark, then you'll find this tune delightful. There's also a cover of "Rockin' Robin," which is ... okay.
This one is for diehard Olivia Newton-John fans only. Others will be better off watching Dukes of Hazzard reruns.
