foundinlove People use different aspects to define success. you want fame of course, you want money , you want people to recognize you as a star. I think in a world judge by popularity like show business. You have to have a solid standing of self-recognition. Knowing what bring you joy, knowing the things frustrating you could also encourage you.It shows differences between people's mindsets. But when we put too much on reaching achievement, gaining other people's compliment.Very inspiring movie , especially when you feel stressed under pursuing goals you set. This movie shows the way we could use to put us sustainable in life.
mlystad1 Fame 2 is a remake of the original Fame (1980). The film is about students at a performing arts school. We follow the teenagers through the high school as they try pursue their dreams while dealing with school work, family problems and love. The film shows the downsides and upsides on being a young adults taking advantage of their talents. It shows positive and negative sides of the entertainment business, how the business take advantage of them, but also how they can get what they want as long as they work hard enough.The film is exactly like the original, boring. Fame 2 isn't your average chick flick, but you loose interest after a couple of minutes and a lot of the scenes are very predictable. There's a lack of humour and the film didn't do anything new with the storyline from the original film. However, the music acts and choreography in the dance scenes are very good and it show that the cast has put a lot of work into it. But this doesn't make up for the bad script or scenes, which is why you must be desperate to manage to watch the entire film.for more reviews go to: http://malinlystad.blogspot.com
Dave Ellis So I was down at my local video store buying some second hand bluray discs and there I found Fame for $5. I thought to myself how bad could it be. It may be a little bit of a nostalgic trip down memory lane.I was never into the original film but I distinctly remember liking the television series of the same name.What's right with it: Kelsey Grammar gives a really nice (but typically grouchy) performance as a piano teacher.Some flashy camera work.What's wrong with it: Flat uninspired staging, bland performances, irritating lighting, terrible dialogue and just an overwhelming feeling that no one involved in this film really put much thought into making this a fresh take on an old story.Where to find it: Probably the bargain bin at your local video store.
KineticSeoul Now this movie was pretty terrible, now I can see why some girls would actually like this movie somewhat though. Mainly because of the characters performances when they take the stage, which is the only positive thing going for this movie. Everything else just sucks, plain and simple. The plot is one of the worst I seen in theaters, mainly revolves around bunch of students trying to reach fame. And the students that doesn't deserve it doesn't make it and the ones that does makes it. The thing is when it comes to most of the characters, I did not care what so ever if they succeed or not, especially the one that wants to become a director, the kid is just a dreamer nothing more and was hoping he doesn't make it so he won't end up making a crappy movie like this one. I especially hated the constantly singing dude, he just seemed like a douchenozzle and a fake the girl he was with is annoying as hell and freaking stupid. So yeah the plot of this movie was just irritating to watch, only positive thing about this mess was the performance when the characters take the stage that is all.3.5/10
