Sexual Content (Not an Issue): Lola wears skimpy outfits. Some kissing, mild sexual allusions. Violence (Not an Issue): A non-graphic car crash, played for laughs. Language (Pause): One use each of "s--t" and "crap". Social Behavior (Pause): Lola steals and tells lies and receives minor consequences. She learns some lessons, however. Commercialism (Not an Issue): None. Drug/Alcohol/Tobacco (Pause): Stu is an alcoholic.

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.

After months of avoiding this because of the CSM review, I gave in to my 6-year-old on a transatlantic flight and was pleasantly surprised. Yes, the Lohan character does lie, but she learns that it doesn't pay, and the ultimate lesson is that you can be different (both Lohan and her best friend) and still be happy. And the alcohol message is a positive one - Lohan's character is disillusioned by the drunkenness of her former idol, and he stops drinking because she calls him on it.

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.

I took my two girls to see this because we had all enjoyed Lindsay Lohan in Parent Trap and Freaky Friday. Unfortunately, in this film her breasts become one of the main characters. She shows bouncy cleavage and wears a dress so tight that it's impossible to imagine how she could move. It absolutely sends the wrong message to girls about their body image and how they should dress. The moral message of the movie is totally convoluted. Although the dialogue expresses the consequences of lying, the action reveals that she got everything she wanted by being deceitful. They showed a trailer of Lohan's next film - I forget the name -but it was a clone of this. No way will I let my girls see that one.

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.

Ridiculous messages and no consequences made this movie unbearably annoying for me from start to finish. Lola doesn't learn anything and never seems to change, and yet is constantly accepted for "who she is" by friends and family. I don't mind the lying and stealing as long as it's a believable part of the character, but there was no story arc and it seemed to be played just for laughs. Like Mean Girls but not even funny. I wish I hadn't wasted my time.

Great movie. All I have to say is Lola wears a lot of clothes that reveal midriff, a rock star gets drunk, and teenage love, but nothing inappropriate.

Very enjoyable teen girly movie! Alot of teenages can relate to the movie because of lifes little dramas and issues with students and fake popularity in schools. A couple of bad words used, but genrally language isn't too much of an issue. In this movie Lola lies about herself to make her life seem more interesting but learns her lesson in the end. I think this displays messages to be yourself and people will love you for who you really are.

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

THIS IS THE WORST MOVIE IVE EVER SEEN DONT EVR WATCH IM WARNING YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This movie was ok. but for age of your kid to see this it depends on what you think. there is a lot of abusing achahol and rude humor. i did not like that lola lied and cheated a lot in the movie. but she does learn lessons. :)

I didn't enjoy this. It was well acted but the story was a big snoozer. I would only recommend this for lazy rainy days or something like that, when you just want something to look at, not to think about it's mindless.

this movie is awesome it tells all about what teens r goin through and peer pressure

This was okay, but a bit unrealistic. And, it's also- my favorite word- fluffy. It's so over-the-top and it's like it wants to go one way, but at the same time it's going another. They kind of started something with the mean girl in the school, and then it just kind of faded out. Lola is way too extravagant. It's a good movie for kids either late in elementary school or middle school. Warning: it can get a bit boring after you see it a few times.

I loved it !!!

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!

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!!!

This enjoyable Sara Sugarman romp is in par with another one of Lohan's films, MEAN GIRLS. In a hilarity she busts through funny lines and great song and dance sequences. Over all it's great but totally unrealistic compared to MEAN GIRLS.
