Spice World description
The Spice Girls have plenty of personality, and that helps make up for the lapses in inspiration that keep their feature debut from being a truly good movie and potential cult piece. As with Richard Lester's Hard Day's Night, Spice World is about a few days in the collective life of the all-female British group; and the banter is suggestively representative of how the Girls all speak to one another. But the value of individual scenes is woefully inconsistent, reaching a low point in a dumb sequence when a gaggle of extraterrestrials hit them up for autographs. Fortunately, the film is full of great people, or in some cases good people doing great things: Richard E. Grant, Roger Moore, Alan Cummings, Mark McKinney, and tons of cameos from the likes of Elton John, Elvis Costello, and Bob Hoskins. You don't have to be 11 years old and female to get some enjoyment out of this movie, but it might help. --Tom Keogh |

Piece of Pop-Culture
|
This is not a great movie, it may not even be a good movie, but it is without a doubt a fun movie. Let's face it, this movie was not done with the hopes of winning any awards, it was done at the perfect time when the Spice Girls were at the peek of their fame. While it won't be on AFI's top 100 films list, it will definitely be on the list of pop-culture because like the movie the Spice Girls are part of pop-culture history. With the girls on tour now there's no better time to pick up this movie and look back on the girls when they ruled the world.
Each girl brings a certain fun element to the movie, but it's Victoria Beckham (or Adams, as she was known back then) who shines. She has great comic timing and her dry sense of humor goes perfectly with her 'Posh Spice' persona. |
