Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen (PG, 2004)

WORST MOVIE EVER NOT RECOMMENDED FOR ANY AGES!!!

Are teenaged girls supposed to be stupid or something? 95% of all teen chick flicks are really dumb & revolve around some nobody trying to get a boy to like them or achieve stardom, & guess what, this movie fits into that spot perfectly. Make a teen movie with a real plot, PLEASE! She's panicking over her loser band breaking up, get a life. Plus in this she insults her name 'Mary Elizabeth', can you guess who also has that exact same name? Me! Last, she's lies about her parent dying & acts like it's so cool & romantic, but guess who really did have a parent die! It is not fun & not romantic, & not something to joke about!

A friend said this movie was okay but it wasn't. The girls are dished up as sexy throughout, the girls are mean and all the lying isn't dealt with until the end when the main character still gets rewarded for her behavior. There's so much wrong with the concert/party storyline I can't write it all here. I spent most of this movie stopping the DVD and explaining to my child why she should NEVER do the things these girls were doing. The Princess Diaries, Ella Enchanted - there are so many good movies out there. Kick this one to the curb.

This was one of the worst kids movies I've ever seen. It was pointless, stupid, and idiotic from beginning to end. Mary "Lola" is overdramatic (hense the movie title) and lies to make people think she is more interesting. Ella is the only character that seems to have a moral conscience. Don't see this movie. It's boring, stupid, and has a bad message.

I've seen this movie probably dozens of times, and I've also read both of the books (one is the book that this movie was based on, and the other is a spin-off type of book about Lola's friend, Ella, which is a book worth reading as well). It's a really fun movie. The music is great, too. The only thing that should bother most parents is when Lola and Ella meet Stu Wolf, the lead singer of their favourite band, he is very, very drunk, and the three end up getting arrested. Despite that, this movie is great-- next time it appears on Disney Channel, you should watch it!

I am a boy, and I think that all boys should stay away from this movie at all costs. The book was much better.

Lohan's "Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen" was fab-u-lous! Ms. Lindsay was great as Mary-Elizabeth/Lola, and pulled off the overly dramatic teen girl wonderfully. Rent it, buy it, WATCH IT!!!

I thought it was a very cute movie. It made me laugh, epecially when Lola was daydreaming that she was Marilyn Monroe. The music was very good, too. I was singing along. Lindsay was excellent as Lola. She is proving to be a good singer too. I viewed the movie as a kid at heart as well as a parent. There are very few movies for kids, especially for preteens. The movie gives a little bit of insight as to what kids might encounter in junior or senior high school, although not as dramatic as the movie. Kids do daydream (We adults did it as kids and we were probably drama queens and kings as well.). Kids want to fit in especially when they are the new person in school. Parents, do you remember your own experiences when you were kids? Did you learn something from them? Lola did fib about her dad being dead but she did realize later that she was wrong. We all make mistakes but we need to learn from them and try to make a positive out of a negative. Also, Lola's and her friend's parents did the right thing by gorunding the girls. The only skimpy thing that I could recall was the kids were doing the final scene of the play. At least, they didn't dance around like Britney Spears does in her videos and her concerts, or touching their private parts like Michael Jackson (I would have screamed bloody murder.)Maybe the outfits that Lola and her friend wore going to the concert were a little skimpy as well. Otherwise, they dressed like normal teenagers.The rock star that Lola idolized was the only person in the movie that drank. At least Lola had the common sense and the guts to tell her idol that he was an alocholic (I was so proud of her. More kids should do that.). The good thing was that he listened (I always thought the kids were smarter than adults give them credit for. So parents, listen to your kids. They are smarter than you think thanks to some of the commercials against smoking, drinking, and drug abuse. Keep talking to your kids. They will thank you later.). If you keep drumming good values into your kids' heads (Churchgoing or non-church going) you are still doing a terrfic job either way. I see no problem with the movie. Just relax and keep in mind that you were a kid at one time.
