Sorry, this movie sucks

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Best movie ever!

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

The only redeeming factor of this movie is the guy who plays Ashton. There is no mention of some of her greatest movies. There is no mention of the guy she was engaged to. There is no mention of the band she was singer in. There is no mention of all the movies she was doing voice over for, while apparently battling drug addiction forced on by a creepy looking husband, that didn't look a thing like the real husband.All in all, the only facts were the dates and even those were so general you couldn't follow the story line.It was so sad when we lost this bright star and the movie should have done her honour. Instead it looks like it was put on by kindergarden kids with access to a trunk of old wigs and trash bag of rags and cast offs.Sherilyn Finn played a great mommy dearest and the fact that they didn't make her go to the emergency room, that they didn't know CPR (even though they were doing it on a breathing talking husband when he had a heart attack) and stuck her under a shower? when she had apparently arrested. Did they think she had overdosed? A very Hollyweird response to drug overdose.All together, you can listen to it like an old radio play but don't try and watch it. They couldn't even get a blonde to play Alicia in Clueless, she has a mop on her head.Bad, bad, bad. Did I say bad?

What a disgrace. This movie might be all right if it had no connection to any real people (though it would still be a poor one), but as a biography of Brittany Murphy it's almost unwatchable. Everything is bad.What's with the choice of actress? She doesn't look anything like Brittany, she doesn't act like her, she has no charisma (which Brittany had plenty of)... What's going on? Some other characters in the movie look and act more like Brittany than Amanda Fuller does. Chloë Crampton who plays her friend would have been a better choice. Watching that round face, I had to constantly remind myself who it's supposed to represent because there was just no resemblance.I don't really know anything about Brittany's real life, but I really doubt she was this lame when in the movies she was so cool. It just doesn't add up. I feel like Amanda Fuller has never even seen any of Brittany's movies.Acting is overall pretty bad. A biography of a famous person should not be a B movie with poor actors.The movie completely fails to build up atmosphere for emotional scenes, so they just end up looking artificial and ridiculous. Crappy, boring music doesn't help either. Everything feels fake. Cheap melodrama.A girl with a really bad wig representing Alicia Silverstone wasn't even funny.Brittany's biography deserves a decent script and cast. This is just a bad joke.

After reading a lot of the other reviews I was shocked at how mean people were being about the casting. These are real people, makes me a little sick. The casting wasn't great but I thought they did an OK job, Brittany Murphy was a star because she had the talent and looks, those are hard shoes to fill. I thought the lead role was cast well, the woman could act, I didn't need her to pass as a double for her character.The story was sappy, but hey this is a Lifetime movie, we knew what it was going into this. Let's not pretend we were surprised how this played out.The movie was OK, I gave it 4 stars. Probably won't ever watch it a 2nd time but it was a decent way to pass some time. Wouldn't mind seeing this story get a real treatment with a real budget.

I will say right up front, I only watched 22 minutes of this atrocity. I gave up when they got to the Alicia Silverstone "character". Seriously?! They couldn't find ONE SINGLE BLONDE ACTRESS to play the part? Instead, they appear to have grabbed some girl off the street and plopped a really, really, really bad blonde wig on her head. Did I mention how BAD the wig was. This movie is just a complete failure. Amanda Fuller sounded more like Tai from Clueless than Brittany Murphy. Frankly, the girl who played Morgan looks more like Brittany. Do yourself and your brain cells a favor and skip this steaming pile of garbage. I would have given it 0 stars if that was an option.
