Hilary Duff, Haylie Duff, Anjelica Huston

Ava and Tanzie Marchetta have it all. The heiresses to a multi-million dollar cosmetics company, the girls approach life as one big party. But when a scandal involving one of their products emerges, t...( read more  read more... )he girls are left penniless, homeless, and seemingly helpless. They could, of course, take the easy way out and listen to the board of directors who want to sell the company to their biggest competitor, but that would forever taint the name of their late father, who built it from the ground up. Instead, Ava and Tanzie decide to protect what is rightfully theirs. What it's going to take to do that will require them to do some things they've never really considered--growing up, taking initiative and responsibility, and asking for help from others, rather than expecting it to fall into their laps. If they can find their inner strength, they might be able to clear their father's name. If not, the party might be over--for good.

    It has Hilary Duff in it, which is good. The rest of the film is just a cliched mess. The two rich girls experiencing poor life is ridiculous, as they act like aliens, being unable to communicate or function in the outside world. These acts of "humour" just get more and more ridi...( read more)culous to the point of sighs and groans. There's also a lot of misjudged editing techniques, such as, some of the most pointless split-screen action around. It's bubbly, cute and probably fun for it's target audience, but it has a very short shelf life.

    Lukas Haas was the basically the only enjoyable part of the movie, except when the Duff sister burnt down their house and tried to put it out with a blanket and pillows. Otherwise the movie was a waste of my time and it would be a waste of yours if u decieded to watch it.

    Yes this is your typical cheesy teen movie with a side dish of really bad acting but I somehow found it enjoyable to watch and even found myself laughing at times which came as a real shock. It does have a good basis for a storyline with good morals which makes it the perfect mov...( read more)ie for tweens, though mature audiences might find it a bit harder to swallow. I have rated it a bit higher then I should have, purely due to its ability to entertain me.

    this movie was a lot like Cow Belles, but Cow Belles was much better and the acting was much better. I got this movie for my 9 year old daughter and she loves Hilary Duff, and even she thought that Cow Belles was much better then this one!
