Review of The American Mall (2008) by Steve S — 19 Jul 2010

:rotten: [color=yellowgreen]1/2[/color] (out of four).

[color=palegreen]With the success of the [b][i]High School Musical[/i][/b] movies, there is bound to be a ton of rip-offs. [QUOTE]While those Zac Efron flicks are no classics, they are at slightly least better than this weak attempt.[/QUOTE] [/color].

[color=#98fb98]Set in a mall, our heroine must try and find a way to keep the evil owner's daughter from kicking her Mom out of the Mall, while also hooking up with the sexy janitor to pursue her singing career.[/color].

[color=#98fb98]The lead actress is cute enough, but one of the biggest problems is I couldn't stand her voice. The creator's seemed to think that a slightly stronger Brttney Spears voice was actually a good idea. It wasn't. She seemed to attempt to mimic the talentless Ms. Spears. On top of that, the songs are terrible. There is not a single one anyone will be able to remember more that three minutes after the movie ends.[/color].

[color=#98fb98]This won't be the last of the new teen musical sensation, which is fine since even teens need something to get excited about, but lets hope they find a way to inject something a little bit more appealing next time around.[/color].
