Watch Josie and the Pussycats For Free

Good story, Not enough for a whole film

best movie i've ever seen.

Best movie ever!

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

I have heard of the Archie comics but unfortunately I saw this in 2016. Seriously why did they have to create a pathetic dull movie like this?! Also adding in the another band 'DuJour' doesn't even involve with 'Josie and the Pussycats' and then just killing them off at the beginning even! That's like the worst intro ever for a movie based on a frigging comic book!I thought Alan Cummings character as an evil dude was very stupid, he didn't have a frigging clue what he was doing! He looked to be a good manager not one trying to take over the entire world!I can't comment anymore but let's just say, it's a terrible film!

I don't know what is wrong with you people who gave this a 5 and below. What were you watching? Or missing rather? Everything is the answer to the latter. The script is not perfect and unwinds a tiny bit in the last half hour of the movie- but other than that the direction, cuts, angles, timing, graphics, and acting are all top notch! When I saw this movie I wanted to know WHO directed it because I found their style really effective for this movie and rare! The directing talent of this movie is rare in that it seemed very comic-book stylized- like they followed well drawn story boards perfectly. As I said, the cuts (transitions) from one interesting camera angle to the next created a nice flow- and the voice acting and expressions were for the most part all good. The story is rather simple but so many other movies have simple stories and fail- i thought this movie had a simple story and succeeded in it's delivery of it. It could have had better character development so that we would care more about the characters- but for some reason I don't expect that nor care for that because it's Josie and the Pussycats for crying out loud! The only silly movie I can think of that had good character development was Austin Powers- where it showed Dr. Evil's childhood and background and gave you a sense of why he was evil. That was good. he was a well developed evil villain. Had this movie shown the background of the background perhaps it would have added a needed level of depth. But overall I enjoyed this movie enough to give it a 7 out of 10 at least. The poor 5 rating of this movie on IMDb is one of many inaccurate ratings on IMDb. There are many other movies I think are good enough to be a 7 but are rated a 5. It makes me have less faith in this rating system and from now on if I read an interesting synopsis for a movie and it's rated a 5 i am going to watch it anyway! - rendering this site ALMOST useless.

Record industries inserts subliminal messages into music so that they can make teenagers do nothing but buy whatever is requested. Whenever a musician or band finds out the truth, the record company silences them to keep the truth from coming out. When boy band DuJour discover this, their manager, Wyatt, has the plane they are flying in crash, and leaves him looking for a new band to use for evil schemes. Enter Josie and the Pussycats, a small band who wants to make it to the big top. When they are discovered by Wyatt, they give in and become big rock stars. But will they find out that they are just pawns for the record industry or will fame take them over......Cruelly overlooked on initial release, this film is a damning satire on product placement, which manages to fit placement into almost every scene. It kind of defeats the purpose, but its intentionally hilarious.It's camp from beginning to end, and I can imagine that many on here have given it a low rating because they are ashamed to admit this film is rather good, but hey, life's too short, and its a lively fun movie, that doesn't hurt with the fact that Leigh Cooke is beautiful to look at and makes the film really easy on the eye.Read between the lines of the film, it really does stick a big middle finger up to teens and manufactured bands who clog up media attention one minute, and disappear next.It's very topical, and I for one feel that this movie should be shown to teenagers between the ages of 13 to 18, to be used as a warning that these boy bands, girl groups are just there to make you buy lots of poorly made goods at stupid prices.Actually, this film is probably based on true events.Hilarious and probably kryptonite to Simon Cowell.

You might expect Josie And The Pussycats, a live action adaptation of the comic and cartoon series about an all-girl pop group, to be fairly bad, but you'd be wrong. Admittedly, neither is it a classic. But this story of a garage band group plucked from obscurity and tempted (and oh so nearly corrupted) by the promise of fame and fortune, while nefarious use is made of their music, is light, frothy fun with a familiar message - be true to yourself.It is helped in this by a decent script and appropriate performances - Rachel Leigh Cooke as Josie plays it straight, Tara Reid plays it ditsy, and Rozario Dawson plays it with integrity: the rest of the cast play it with gusto.And the music is good, solid stuff in the overdriven guitars, melodic pop vein.This is a more than satisfactory way to pass 100 minutes.
