It isn't bad enough to be good. Full Review |
||
|
|
Undiscovered feels more like a pilot for a glossy nighttime soap on Fox -- probably one that would be canceled midseason -- than a feature film with even a modicum of discernible originality or depth. Full Review |

|
|
It's all very tacky, overheated and derivative, like Los Angeles itself. Full Review |

1/5 |
This thing makes Glitter look like gold. Full Review |
||
|
|
Undiscovered would like to think of itself as a gritty, documentary-style indie about hopefuls on the fringes of the industry, but it's more like one of those lame hair-metal bands that went out and bought flannel shirts after Nirvana hit it big. Full Review |

A nice portrayal by Ashlee of a wanna-be rocker, in a music story in L.A. without drugs! Full Review |

Ashlee's better at acting and singing than her more famous sister Jessica, but that's no great feat; might as well add that she'd make a better brain surgeon, too. Full Review |

The script is every bit as literate as the content you'd find a back issue of "Blender," with just as much eye candy to bolster the thin material. Too bad this candy is sour. Full Review |

Simpson steals the show -- which, admittedly, isn’t saying much considering her stiffest competition comes by way of a skateboarding bulldog. Full Review |

|
3/4 |
Although it's all but forgotten before the fade-out, you don't rush to turn it off, either. Full Review |

2.5/4 |
An enjoyably cheesy teen melodrama with a touch of indie edge. Full Review |
||
|
0.5/4 |
Avis layers every sequence with pop singles and confuses poor camera focus and colored lighting for aesthetic flair. Full Review |

|
.5/5 |
Bottom line: I get paid to sit through this kind of rubbish. You don't. Full Review |

By the time Peter Weller appears to do his William Burroughs routine, you can only assume an angry God has added up all your sins and this movie is your punishment. Full Review |

Director Meiert Avis is a veteran helmer of music videos, so while it is not entirely surprising that he has no feel for character or structure, it is strange that he doesn’t breathe much life into the frequent musical performances and montages either. Full Review |
