The Bottom Line

Fans of fast-rising star Lindsay Lohan will get a kick out of this high school movie. She's talented enough to pull off what otherwise might have been just a pretty ordinary teen comedy.

Guide Review - "Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen" DVD Review

Forced to leave her beloved New York City behind for the much less dramatic, much less exciting life in the suburbs of New Jersey, Lola (Lindsay Lohan) refuses to give up on her dream of being a star.

Competing with her new high school's popular girls, Lola finds herself becoming best friends with one of the school's least popular students, living an imaginary glamorous life, and taking off to New York to track down her favorite band as they make their farewell appearance before breaking up.

Since this is a teen Disney movie, you can rest assured Lola's going to learn important life lessons on her journey of self-discovery. With Lohan as the film's star, "Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen" is as good as most teen movie fare. Even when the movie hits a few snags, Lohan, Alison Pill, Glenne Headly, and Adam Garcia do their best to pump up the energy level and keep the film moving along.

Check out the "Confessions From the Set" featurette for a fun look behind the scenes of the movie, with the stars of the film and director Sara Sugarman talking about specific scenes and their time on the set.
