Teaches some very good lessons in a positive way
Although the main character behaves badly at some points in the movie, she eventually not only pays with tough consequences (all her friends turn away from her) she does learn the lesson that she badly needs to learn. It's a good movie to use to talk over issues like trying to be part of the "popular" group and how much to sacrifice your old friends to make new ones. The alter ego thing is a little strange, but it works out ok.

Disliked the film, but ok for kids
I found this film very irritating with the character the lead girl has created in her head. In some scenes she argues with the girl she has created in her mind in public and in her bedroom, which could be seen as a mental issue, you may want to discuss. I don't think this film has any good morals. The lead girl lets fame get to her head and she suddenly has interest in her male friend after she finds out he wrote the poems in class, not her crush. Which I personally thought was terrible. She would not like him otherwise. Her mum also seems to not care at all

It was great!!
So. I really liked the movie, and I thought it put a good message across. Friendship is golden and people need to be careful what the say about other people-it could become a best-selling book! Plus it had Jason Dolley!

One of the best Disney Channel original movies
This had to be one of my favorite DCOM movies. It had a good strong message and I recommend this movie for everyone 8+.
