Plot: Two American Idol contestants, Justin Guarini and Kelly Clarkson, meander around Spring Break Florida in search of true love and the perfect R&B melody.Why is this a contender for Best Movie. Ever?
Because of the wellspring of talent gushing through every frame. Truly the work of an auteur, director Robert Iscove brings a modern day Romeo and Juliet like it has never been seen before: bikini clad. I could talk all day about the dynamics of the characters, the homages to Busby Berkeley and cinematic romanticism, Guarini's hair... but I'm not going to do that because, well that's my personal decision.
Best scene: All the musical numbers are standout. But if I had to choose just one at gunpoint (and that's the only way you'd get me to choose just one, mind you), I would highlight 'The Luv (The Bounce)' as the showstopper.
The Luv. The Bounce. The Luv Bounce?
