This Sounds Like An Awful Movie
There are very few movies that sound awful just from their description. But, combine it with the person cast and suddenly it sounds like the worst idea ever. I sure hope whoever decided to greenlight this movie is not trying to support a family on their salary because they will be fired very shortly.
The movie stars Miley Cyrus so you know there is going to be some eye rolling anyway. Before I talk about the plot of the movie, who keeps hiring Miley for movies? Her movies have bombed. No one is interested in going to see her try and act because she does not know how to act. She is truly an awful movie actress. On television you can be awful, but in movies you can't.
Anyway, in this latest train wreck which will be called So Undercover, Miley is a private investigator hired by the FBI. Let us stop there for a moment. Miley is a private investigator??? We are supposed to buy that going in to this movie?? Oh, and the FBI hires her?? Because?? Well the plot is because they need someone to infiltrate a sorority. Uh huh. And presumably the FBI does not have any female agents so they have to hire Miley Cyrus? Yeah, this is going to be a winner.

What.the.fuck.is.she.wearing.
Sorry I puked on your website Enty.
Isn't her mother co-producing this? :)
Can't stand this fugly girl....I keep waiting for her to be over........
Maybe she's into method acting--she hid a camera in a filling and that explains her constantly open mouth.
Or else she's just an idiot raised by idiots.
I'm not a movie watcher in any event, but I wouldn't even rent this for 1.99 on demand. Her overbite is too much for me. I can't take her seriously.
I am not violent but I want to smack her every time I see her.
All I am hoping for now is as soon as Hannah Montana is over and the tweeners hit teen years. They will realize the mistake they made by making her a star.
I don't wish her the Leif Garret curse. But just let her tv, movie and music career come to an end now.
Hahahahaha...that's all I can muster for this idiot...
This storyline reminds me of that movie Underclassman with Nick Cannon. This plot has been done 100 times before and sadly enough will be done 1000 more times.
You know why she's a bad actress?
Seriously, because she thinks she's great, she's been told she's great all her life, and she's fantabulously wealthy because she's been popular (as Enty says, Disney Channel Fare is not acting. It is performing. She is an engaging performer. Performing is not acting. It's a gift, it takes real talent, and it does take work. But it is not acting. Very different skill set.)
So perhaps she took a class with a coach or two before doing that crappy Nicholas Sparks movie, but do you really think she took it seriously? Why? She's entitled and thinks she's brilliant. She has no perspective and no one who will dare tell her she needs to work harder.
Remember when Marilyn Monroe left her career at its height and moved to NY and sat in the back of Lee Strasberg's class? You don't see the Miley's of today doing that. Because it's work. And this generation is so used to getting it all without really testing themselves; without trying and failing. They are the "everybody gets a trophy" generation but times 1000x if they've had early fame and money.
When you work with real actors - that includes the young ones, because I know one 21 year old soon to be a star actor who still hammers away at his craft daily - it does make you angry about the Miley's (and the Timberlakes?)
The only thing we can hope for is that she (and the studio) will reap what they sow and the movie will tank. Or, pigs will fly and she will pull a Marilyn Monroe, learn the craft a little (maybe read a play or two?) and either sink or swim but only after really doing the work. But that involves a real risk and perhaps a sacrifice of ego that would be difficult for her at this stage.
Nobody wants to do the work anymore.
That's my soapbox.
she is not very talented....I have no idea why she gets movie roles.
my two year old was beepoppin in the back of the car to one of her songs the other day. She was entertained so I did not shut it off, but that gives you an idea of the level of her talent. She made a two year old clap.....whoopie!
What in the holy house of fashion horrors is she wearing???
I don't know who green lighted that (cough) movie project but I'd like their job.
Miley, maybe you shouldn't go down that path. Go rent a movie called IF LOOKS COULD KILL. It doesn't seemed to have done Richard Grieco any favors.
*clapping for hunter* hear hear!
I'm not a Miley fan in the slightest, but she wasn't bad at all in the animated movie, "Bolt".
Her little brother did the voicework in Ponyo and was great. As long as I don't have to actually watch a Cyrus-family member act, I'm good with it.
(My 4 yr old went through a phase where we had "Bolt" playing regularly there for a while, so, I was surprised when Hubs told me she was the voice of the little girl in the film.)
That's perfect, hunter.
This sounds like the Veronica Mars movie that should have been. That only makes me twice as bitter.
@RocketQueen - love it! Blue suede sixties gogo boots, a pair of Taylor Momson's used panty hose, a skirt off a dead crack ho and a shirt someone threw up on!
When I told my friend the movie's premise, she said, "That's upsetting. Why would they disrespect the FBI like that?" Couldn't have said it better myself.
The dumbing down of the world continues!! This is the shit they keep trying to feed everyone!! I could think up a better movie plot than that when I am shitfaced and can barely speak!! People get paid to do this?? Meanwhile, I work all day at a real job and get paid shit!!
oh, and she looks like she just rolled out of bed after a hard nite and put on David Lee Roth's boots circa 1978
I really don't see the talent in her in coming out in movies. Why?????
Can't stand the way she talks. She talks like if she was wearing dentures lol.
hunter - Miley can't read so we won't find her in any class anywhere. She obviously just graduated from the Britney Spears School of High Fashion!
Didn't Jon Cryer do this same movie back in the 80s? Hiding Out or something like that?
Thanks to SNL, I can no longer look at a photo of Miley and her big mouth without thinking of the fantastic spoof they did of her. Well done, SNL.
Look, someone in the Cyrus family has to provide the spandex, chewing gum and hair care for the rest of the family. Do you KNOW how much and how hard it is to get your hands on some good quality 1980-1989 Aqua Net or White Rain? And who do you know that just has some ripped spandex or acid washed jeans lying around? Vintage tacky is an expensive habit. Unless the family gets help, then she will continue to pop up.
(and you are welcome for the laugh today :) )
Was Amanda Bynes not available for this film or something?
I was thinking the same thing, jmid.
Anyway, I'm starting to realize that Disney/Nickelodeon shows are more like MTV reality shows, but for the younger set. These child actors are put into certain situations that will highlight the supposedly endearing aspects of their personalities, and the kids buy into these personalities as the actors' "real" selves. (The only difference, of course, between "Hannah Montana" and "Jersey Shore" being that the second type of reality show highlights the worst personality aspects of its characters.)
When these child stars have to transition into adult stars, it's hard for them because they have no idea how to play anything but some version of themselves, and they don't understand why they can't just continue doing so to make money. It is entitlement, but not any more entitlement than, say, Snooki.
There are some child stars who make it into adult roles okay, but not without plenty of training (and maybe a few years out of the spotlight).
Sounds like a porno. I think I've seen it. Remake?
According to E!, no studio is attached to this project. Jenny is right, her mom is producing it. Filming starts next month. Everything about this vanity project sounds like a bad idea, but at least she's not taking a 'real' part from another actress.
Is Perez Hilton writing this column lately? Seriously, you may not agree with the casting and she may not be your favourite "actress" but a whole posting just to trash her? Wow.
Since when has the FBI started to infiltrate sororities? Is there some massive contraband crime wave going on in sororities that I don't know about?
Looserdude, my first thought was 'Veronica Mars' too. This is going to be 'Pledge This! Part Deux.'
It sounds crappy because we are adults. I think they are aiming this at the pre teen/tweeners who may be missing Hannah Montana, and will beg their parents to let them and their friends see it.
And I too don't get where the hate for this girl comes from. The remarks made by an adult directed toward someone much younger seem rather odd, especially after all the comments made against bullying in the past few weeks. Just a few days ago people were jumping all over one another about bashing Demi Levato, but Miley seems to be open season.
It does sound like a pretty terrible movie but...I'm sure I've seen worse. Girl's got bills to pay, Enty! :)
This is a very Perez Hiltonesque post. Picking on a 17 year old girl is so ... lovely.
Seriously, she's only been in one movie that's come out, and it did as okay as any of those annoying Nicholas Sparks' movies do. (I swear, I am so tired of his 'tragic illness' schtick.) Anyway, she was fine in it. It was just another Sparks' vehicle. So, you know, a very boring plot, punctuated by a tragic death that teaches a Life Lesson.
The other movie hasn't come out yet, right? (I'm just trying to figure out "movies that bombed." Wasn't there only the one so far?)
As for her outfit, Le Sigh. This outfit fully illustrates what it's like to be 17. It's simply terrible, but she's still lovely. As long as she doesn't wear this outfit when she's 40 ... that would be very, very bad. (I'm looking at you, Cher.)
I liked her last movie. I think she is a good actress, impressive for her age.
I smell a Oscar Nod!
Probably no finer movie has been seen since Glitter.
