Wild Child (2008)

Wild Child is a movie (I think) is aimed at young teenage girls who love watching girlie movies, well they're probably the only ones who will find this entertaining. Children may not appreciate the large amount of bad language and rebellious natures used by some of the actors, while adults may find the film childish and a way to encourage bad behaviour. Personally, the first time I watched the film it took me a while to warm up to it, but I was entertained by it enough to remain sat down with my eyes on the screen at all times. After I watched it a couple of times, I put it on the DVD shelf and forgot about it. The plot is a bit dragging and over-the-top in some places with the characters being dramatic and a bit too cocky to find humerus, but the film is pretty good and I would watch it again.

This has got to be one of my favourite films and I would definitely recommend it to those who enjoy funny films full of different emotions and excitement, even a bit of romance. It is about an American troublemaker, Poppy Moore, who is sent to an all girls boarding school in England. At first, all she wants is to escape from the school. However, after a while she begins to fit in with the other girls and realises how much she wants to stay. It is an emotional story about respect, trust and friendship. Emma Roberts portrays the character of Poppy Moore very well, and all the actors play their characters perfectly. This draws you into the film making it more enjoyable and you get a feel for what the characters are really feeling. You also begin to love Poppy as she is a very interesting character and as the nicer side of her begins to show.Overall this is a great movie. It's definitely a film to watch.

I was rather surprised with this movie, of course it's not going to be remembered for the best storyline or best acting, but hopefully it will be remembered for it's witty humor.The storyline doesn't have much depth and the dialogue is rather predictable, but even so, it'll still be able to squeeze a few laughs out of you. I was expecting some teen movie about a spoilt brat who gets turned around and is expecting everyone watching this to change their life's perspective, but given that the first word in this movie is a swear word, I somehow didn't expect that anymore.It's perfect for a laugh, nothing more, nothing less, good for a girly night or something along those lines.

WILD CHILD – TRASH IT ( C ) When I decided to watch Wild Child, I knew its going to be painful but I watched it for Alex Pettyfer & Emma Roberts (together). The movie starts off really dreadfully so I thought its going to be unbearable and Emma Roberts in her Blonde Wig and Snotty attitude was looking like a crap actress, she couldn't pull of the Bitchy attitude at all. Emma Roberts tried to look like uptown girl but dressed like she is coming from 70s even if you ask me in 70s they dressed much better, she was in her own mediocre lead... The moment she came back into her original brunette hairs, somehow the movie also got from Dreadful to Mediocre. Emma Roberts as blonde was crap though as brunette she did fine. Alex Pettyfer as usual in his charming attitude and looked great with Emma (sad or great actually they didn't work out in real life). Kimberley Nixon and Juno Temple did a fine job and both are quite talented. All the other girls were fine. Overall a complete teen movie with otter mediocrity, so Trash it unless like me you also want to see Alex & Emma together!
