Reviews for The Legend of Billie Jean
This far-fetched movie munches on the mythology of heroism but is too manipulative and shallow to be taken seriously.
Em seu esforço risível para criar um ícone de independência, rebeldia e juventude, o filme soa apenas incrivelmente absurdo, artificial e patético, mesmo que Helen Slater seja uma protagonista obviamente sedutora.
