I was trying to find another Geek Charming-esque movie to enjoy, but this one wasn't nearly as fun. The main characters seemed lifeless, and that's mostly due to the writing.Jessica, the protagonist, is always moping around because her sister is said to be more popular and beautiful, while in reality Jessica is undoubtedly the prettiest girl in the movie. The conclusion was predictably sappy. However, I paused the movie halfway through, and later I was interested enough to finish it.It gets a solid B-.Geek Charming was better.

I still poke around Disney Channel when I'm bored, and this film caught my eye, only because of the occasional smile I get from Sterling Knight's egotistical character on another show. Ten minutes in, I had figured out the entire plot, climax and ending, which is not necessarily a bad thing - but just about every concept in this film was either clichéd or overused. Disney is very much into the pop-star concept, only because tweens of today are obsessed with celebrity and Hollywood. Take Hannah Montana, Sonny with a Chance etc. So Starstruck is about a small-town girl that wins the heart of a famed big shot teen idol - every tween's dream right? The one major downfall of this film that Starstruck does not adhere by is the characterisation of the female protagonist. She is supposed to be relatable, likable, so that female viewers can imagine themselves to be her. This is what Stephanie Meyer got right about her Twilight novels. However, this girl, she was so insignificant that I've forgotten her name, made me cringe every time she opened her mouth. Yes, she was annoyingly pretty, but her bad acting combined with the extremely bad screen writing created an astonishly horrible character. She bitched the whole time about how irritating her older sister is, about the celebrity of Hollywood and getting a little dirty after a great day. Her and Sterling's relationship lacked any real emotion either, it was very very shallow and seemed to develop over about two sentences as everything else was simply bickering. This film was so incredibly awful, that I couldn't even bear to watch the last of it. Once I saw Knight's character on the stage at her school dance, I switched the TV off. I would not recommend this, even for bored passing time. Once of the worst films, even by Disney standards, that I have ever seen.

*moderate spoilers, maybe* I just finished watching this movie, and I have to say... as a Michigan teenager myself, I'm kind of offended that they think this portrayal of a Michigan (which, by the way, is NOT pronounced "Mich-uh-gun" by locals; I can guarantee that I know nobody who says it like this) teen is realistic. The girl's a complete diva! Her mannerisms are nothing like those of anyone you would meet here. I promise you, we're not all dimwitted snobs who speak with a bitchy demeanor. Not that I'm denying that Michigan has some snooty people. Trust me, I have met some. But NONE of them are to this degree.The actual movie itself is on par with the rest of the recent ones: BAD. They make me long for the days of actually GOOD Disney Channel Original Movies. Granted, none of them are spectacular examples of acting, but at least the earlier ones had a decent amount of taste and some sense of morality. Here, the girl acts like a completely HORRIBLE person for the duration of the movie, and she STILL gets what she wants. (Even when she's defending him, her tone still reeks of diva.) What kind of message is that supposed to send? "Be a bitch, it'll get you far in life"? I definitely recommend that you stick to good old Disney movies, like the animated features of the 90s and earlier, or anything Pixar. Movies like this one honestly make me lose a little of my faith in humanity. If this is what teenage girls have come to, I'm ashamed to be forced to include myself in that category.One star out of 10.P.S. If you do visit Michigan, PLEASE do not let this piece of fail ruin your impression of us. We are, on the whole, a generally nice and friendly group of people. I can guarantee you that none of us will treat you as terribly as the "Michigan" teens in this film treat each other.
