Done on purpose...
Did any of the reviewers actually understand this movie? The BIG punchline at the end of the movie explains why there are product placements throughout the entire movie... and if you missed that clue, watch the director's commentary. Yes, there are product placements, but that is the POINT of the movie.

One huge commercial
From start to finish, it's like one commercial big spoof on MTV and all of the Pop artists of the world. Most jokes are somewhat funny, often mildley bland. If you're not a fan or haven't read the comic books which this movie is based on, you might not even want to try to understand it. Cheesy pop-rock music fills the air, quick paced action and lots of strong language make the movie a little less than cheese. Bottom line: young girls may love it, adults may find it annoying.

Fantastic movie, brings back memories
I first saw this movie when I was like 10, and I LOVED IT! This is one of my all time guilty pleasure movies. The music is great and I still love all the songs on the soundtrack! This movie is really likable especially if you're really into pop music. As for language and other iffy stuff? The language is a bit raunchy at times but nothing like the language used in today's PG-13 movies. And it really depends on what you as parents consider to be "raunchy" language. Watching this at 10 years old I really didn't catch on to too much of the sexual innuendo. Of course now I do, but as I said, nothing in his movie is nearly as bad as today's PG-13 movies. So if you're kid is mature and wants to watch this movie let them! I agree with Commonsense! 11 and up!

I have used parts of this movie when teaching students about product placement. This movie is chock full of product placement! Great example for Mass Marketing class and easy for kids to spot.
