no matter what you have hear and fame be not a good movie . it not worth the investment of over two hour to watch stereotypically troubled teen dance and sing and learning and and star at girl in the dressing room . every cliché find a cozy little home in this movie . there a gay teenager look for acceptance . that would have be great if it have be treat a anything more than a secondary plot point . there a ghetto kid who have too much attitude what and be i surprise . and guess what . they all want to become big star and find fame and fortune and and they would all be willing to crawl over their own mother smoke corps to get it . oddly enough and this film be remember for it music . but in actuality and the only moderately good song be hot lunch jam and which be still too cheesy to be of any real quality . the two most popular song be nothing and either . fame be meaningless fluff drown out by the sheer spectacle of a massive dancing in the street scene . and i sing the body electric ( what in bubba name do that even mean . ) be just an incomprehensible joke . bad act and tasteless dialog and and hack direction ( it be and after all and from the director of evita ) be only marginally help by michael seresin appropriately ordinary camera work . but cinematography alone can not carry a movie and especially one a uninspiring and pointless a this .
