a rich pricess get a view of the real world?Reviewed by R. Bagula, 2010-02-19
The lead girl plays a clueless rich girl who wants to be a
journalist.
She tattles on her teachers and gets the piece in a local
newspaper,
which leads to trouble.
The mystery of the disappeared teacher comes clear
once they find out his real name.
She thinks she knows about fashion
but has near zero artistic sense of how colors look together:
in one scene she comes in a green peddle pushers with a purple
top.
A dizzy movie type that is too much formula for me?
Good movieReviewed by Megan Drummond, 2009-09-05
I saw this movie when it aired on the Disney Channel and I loved it from the minute I saw it. I definitely would recommend this movie.
Teen Queen / detective for the Younger Crowd!Reviewed by Onyxx, 2008-04-18
Lindsay Lohan is a very good actress. Not many think of her in that
light. We tend to see her as another teen trouble maker in/out of
rehab. She truly knows her craft & I respect her for
that.
I live in the middle of many movie studios (Cali) so my cable has a
ridiculous number of channels. We have 3 PBS channels. The nice
part is that I get to see movies quicker than others.
This movie was light and cute but definitely geared towards a young
crowd. I would buy this movie if I had kids from 10 - 13. Maybe
even a bit younger. Since it's a detective movie preteens would be
able to keep up with the clues.
I've seen all her movies. My favorite hands down is "Georgia Rule".
Georgia Rule (Widescreen Edition)
Directed by Garry Marshall you can never go wrong. He knows his
stuff. Georgia Rule was a stretch for him in that it spans 3
generations of women with ALL the emotional triggers and real life
situations.

A n ice lark of a Movie for the Teen SetReviewed by D. Allen, 2007-03-17
An OK plot with Lindsey Lohan sluething a missing teacher with a nice twist to the plot. Teens finding out while adults have problems. Oh well- it's a entertaining and fun Lark if you like that kind of movie.
Keeps growing on meReviewed by Shawn Bell, 2006-09-16
I know this is a Disney movie for a certain audience but I have to say I rented it one night and really liked it. My reading choices are all very serious so I like a break when I put on a dvd. I appreciated the charm of this movie but what I noticed that I like a lot is how it has the feeling of a play in the writing. I felt like I was watching a decent high school production of a story. The acting is quite good in the context of this movie, I think Brenda Song has a long future as a comedic talent. It took me a couple of viewings to figure out why the city scape looked familiar, it's Toronto!
