Critic Reviews

Lisa Schwarzbaum

Not only makes excellent use of the singer's sweetly coltish acting abilities, but it also promotes a standardized set of sturdy values with none of Mariah Carey's desperate ''Glitter,'' or any of Mandy Moore's gummy pap in ''A Walk to Remember.'' Read full review

Stephen Holden

Everything she (Spears) does seems diluted and secondhand and is never transformed into something original or indelibly self-expressive. Read full review

Liam Lacey

Marks the emergence of a talented young actress. Not Britney -- who has the amateur's tendency to stand looking awkward after delivering her lines -- but Manning (Crazy/Beautiful), who plays Mimi with the gusto of a young Holly Hunter. Though she has little competition here, when she's on the screen she pretty much owns it. Read full review

Roger Ebert

I went to Crossroads expecting a glitzy bimbofest and got the bimbos but not the fest. Britney Spears' feature debut is curiously low-key and even sad. Read full review

Ann Hornaday

Not a music video, not yet a movie, but more like an extended-play advertisement for the Product that is Britney. Read full review

Connie Ogle

Young girls are the only ones likely to enjoy this vapid road-trip movie. Read full review

Marjorie Baumgarten

Functions mainly as a big-screen showcase for America's No. 1 teen tease, with the story and other characters serving mainly as accessories. Read full review

Good ole fashioned, feel good fun! The movie may not be the epitome of movie making or script writing, but its a story many relate too and touches on topics that teenagers will always deal with. The music is great, the acting is good (even from Britney, who is not known as an actress) andGood ole fashioned, feel good fun!

The best part of the movie was seeing britney wearing close to nothing in a couple of scenes.There is a great concept and moral in this movie but its just hard to sit threw the movie Britney is just not good at acting and neither was anybody else in the movie.

Decent film debut for Britney Spears but this movie lets itself down by becoming a cheese-fest, coming of age film with some sour acting and generally uninteresting characters.

The only reason this movie deserves a positive review at all is that Britney danced around in her underwear. GG bad acting and movies.
