Jem &
The Holograms 2/10
I did
it. I watched Jem & The Holograms. I told everyone that I was
gonna do it and I did it. Now I feel terrible. It wasn't as bad as I
was expecting but when I was expecting for my face to melt off and my
ancestors to rise from their graves and shout in anger that is not
saying much. This was not a movie for anyone that ever enjoyed the
series or just likes the character of Jem. This movie is great for an
11 year old girl that has never heard of Jem and just stumbled across
this. Oh, and she has to have terrible taste in music and have no
concept of how the internet works. That helps.

So
Jerrica Benton and her sister Kimber live with their aunty played by
Molly Ringwald. There are the other two girls but whatever. All the
girls love singing and shit but Jerrica acts all shy. One day she
records herself singing in disguise and calling herself Jem. She
doesn't like it and thinks she erased the video but her sister sees
it and loads it on Youtube. Suddenly Jem is a sensation with a
whopping 30,000 views. Yeah. In 2015 that many views don't mean shit.
Suddenly she is whisked away to L.A where madness ensues like a hunt
using a robot her dad made to find clues to solve a mystery! I'm not
kidding. That actually happens in this. If you got mad at the end of
Contact this will make you shit sideways.
This
movie was just existing. It wasn't offensive as a fan of Jem because
it was so far removed from anything connected to the cartoon. It
would be like being upset with Marvel for not sticking to the
original source material from the comics. This movie was similar in
character names. That's it. Oh. And I love that the ending left room
for a sequel. Hahaha! Stupid, hopeful movie. You'll never have a
sequel. This movie made sure that no other Jem movies ever get made.
