Cleveronix A different way of telling a story
ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Sarah12491 i can remember back when O-Town came out and every time a song would come on the radio by them i'd switch it off. i thought they were terrible. the other day i saw Ashley's video "Let You Go" and i was like "hey he's really good" i decided to look him up on the internet and i was totally shocked when i found out that he was a member of that group that i absolutely hated. he's really proved himself as a serious artist. what a complete change from girlie boy band stupidity to awesome rocker. i think he's great and i can't wait for his album. he's definitely not bad looking either with his long blonde hair. i love his lyrics too.
ejcbtheshamrock4 As a 40 year old Mom with teen-aged boys, I'm not really into "pop music" but what I am into is seeing someone work hard to support themselves and their family. Therefore, I am rooting wholeheartedly for Ashley Parker Angel. He is a great example of what can come from hard work and dedication and I applaud him for striving to find his own voice in the aftermath of a "boy band" stigma. His new music sounds terrific and the fact that much of his CD is written by him shows even more of his character. I found I had a real love-hate relationship with this show; I love that he is so dedicated to his music and his family. His easy-going nature was simply endearing. Tiffany, however, could have been less self-centered at times and more supportive--she didn't come across real well but I am willing to give her the benefit of the doubt and chalk it up to editing in hopes that she was much less shallow off screen than she was on. That being said, he has a great support system around him from Tiffany's Mom (who is nothing short of amazingly supportive and was doing much of what Tiffany should have been doing--again could have just been edited that way), his manager, record company and former band mate. If you have a chance to catch this show in re-runs...do yourself a favor and watch. This is a young man fighting against not only stereotype, but also being a young father (without having the advantages of one himself) and trying to make life better for himself and everyone around him. I am happily going to be buying his CD and wish him all the best in all things. Ashley is an example of responsibility and fortitude. Well done.
arnold0001 Yes, Ashley was formerly in a boy band, and he is a pretty boy. And I am not a fan of boy bands, never have been. But I have had the guilty pleasure of watching MTV's There and Back, which is somewhat contrived like all reality shows, but endearing. I play guitar & piano, and I have to admit that, hey, this guy is talented, and he truly has songwriting skills and a pleasant voice. His arrangement of chords are striking and his lyrics are strong. His songs are floating around in my head.I am looking forward to the release of his album, and I recommend to those who may blow him off, give the guy a chance. He wants to be taken seriously (can you imagine the embarrassment of being known as that O-Town dude), and he has proved that he deserves an open ear.
WhiteTigerPat13 I glad he is showing the other side of the music business! It's what really happens and it is so hard to show that on TV and talk about it! Also remember he is now employed by MTV now and probably going to make some real money now! He has come sooo far from O-Town. Now i'm one of those people that really loved Making the Band and just loved O-Town. I loved the sound and pretty cool at the time. We all grow and now that Ashley and Tiffaney are having a baby boy it's sooo cool that they are showing that on MTV> A great show and produced very nice! Nice and honest show! Pretty cool in my book! Out of 10 it a solid 9 1/2! That cool ladies & Gents! So check it out!
