  1. It works. "Lizzie" is wholesome, smart and sweet.
  2. Doesn't try to be more than what it is: a romantic fantasy caper.
  3. Reviewed by: Kevin Carr

    Classic adolescent coming-of-age tale.
  4. There's not a scrap of imagination in the script.

    This score even shocks me. You would think this is got to be pure trash when actually it is pure gold. For what it is everything connects. Duff puts on a great performance and the characters don't come across as phony as i was expecting. A true surprise in a good way. Expand

    I should say that this movie is a total piece of dung, but it actually isn't that bad. Lizzie is very likable and that comes from the actress who plays her. I liked it then and I like it still. Expand

    San Fransisco Chronicle, what the hell is wrong with you? First Pitch Black, then A.V.P., then Sin CIty?. All excellent films that you gave zeroes, yet you give this an 100?!?!?!?! In agreement with Sarah M., Hilary is a stuck-up b...h that thinks she can act and sing, but she's a talentless moron for starring in this crap and the awful Raise Your Voice (I gave it a 2). In fact, her only decent film was the enjoyable Cinderella Story (and i didn't wanna see that because of this!). Back to the San Fransisco Chronicle, you people are just some sick bastards playing a sick Joke. Expand
