Hey, it wasn’t that bad. It was definitely TV-movie quality in terms of plot and dialogue, but the basic idea was great and the aesthetic was cool, especially the cars, the clothes, and Amanda Seyfried’s look. Yeah, Justin Timberlake’s acting was distracting, and Seyfried’s wasn’t that much better. I bet if they’d got a better leading man and a top-notch director, they could have made a classic. As it is, the movie made a pretty good profit, so I’m not the only one who thought it was all right.
