Mariah did good in this.


This movie, in my opinion, shows that Mariah CAN act.
i was surprised at how good this is!!

Suprisingly, she was pretty good. She's good at playing the bitch, which is probably the roles she needs to take more often. I would have given her and Sorvino Emmy noms for their performances. So often, many haven't seen the films before they comment.

reply

Yeah She can act.

reply

Yes I agree. After I read your reviews, I saw the movie myself. Mariah can act and she was almost as good as Mira. To be fair, I will recommend this movie to my friends who found her performance in Glitter laughable.

reply

I love Mariah and this goes to show that shes not gunna give up and shes gunna keep trying until she gets it right. Well i think she was better than Mira. Mariah presentedd her characters personality better. Go mariah!!!!!

reply

Yep, MC was good on this movie!

reply

I don't think she was better than Mira but she was still very good, and I wish articles would reference this film rather than Glitter since it got some great reviews and Mariah is always complemented in the role for her acting ability.

Glitter was a mess of a film, with a bad script. I don't know many actors that could've done well with no structure or proper direction. If you read the history of the film or listen to the director's commentary you get to find out a bit more about it, but basically it would've made Julia Roberts look bad.

I'm watching this right now. And Im very much enjoying Mariah Carey's performance. The girl can act and hopefully she'll go on to star in more movies. Shell definitely prove people wrong.

reply

yeah, she is great

reply

I was completely impressed with Mariah

reply

Mariah is really very good in this film! She's so under-rated! People need to stop blindly following the media's views of her. It's only because of her unparralled success that she gets so much abuse. Everyone should give this film a chance, it's surprising, dramatic, funny and satisfying.

Mariah Carey did an outstanding job in her role as Raychel. I loved her as a tough beauty. She needs to get more roles in movies.

MC I Love ya

reply

What are you talking about? She did equally as good in Glitter. Well, I thought so.

I HATE Mariah Carey's music!! And I truly hated 'Glitter'!!!

But....I have to admit she was actually pretty good in WiseGirls. I rented this movie as a last option, and I ended up being entertained by this gangstermovie. The performances of the three actresses were good, the story had enough original touches to keep me preoccupied and, in terms of how it was shot and directed, it was clearly well made.

I agree that Mariah was thoroughly convincing in this film. Mira was fine as well as Melora Walters, who really had to play 2 parts essentially and did a great job. The first half of the movie was ok, the second half really picked up, and I didn't see some of the twists, although I did guess the ending. I think Mariah plays tough chick very well, and Mira is, well, always Mira (except in Mighty Aphrodite). Not a bad way to spend an hour and a half.

Mariah accent was on point too. i was proud of her.

Mariah was awesome in this movie. I thought she did a great job too and she stole every scene she was in. Whenever she's on the screen, she's the one you noticed or paid attention more. I also thought of her as Raychel while watching her throughout the movie not Mariah...so she was really good in this movie. Those people who didn't like this movie because of Mariah, that's their problem, lol. I loved this movie and everyone I know who has seen it...that's all that matters. People will always have different opinions, which is fine because they are intitled to it...but to each and her own 'cause in my opinion, she did very good in this movie. Mariah was convincing as Raychel. I love her character, lol. Raychel was just freakin' hilarious. I love her accent in this movie and her lines. I thought Raychel has the best lines. I like Mira and Melora too, but I thought Mariah was the best one in this movie.

mariah can act. Its just the question if she can act good or not.

reply

I just watched this on HDNetM. First, let me say, I HATE Mariah - generally. I absolutely LOVED her in this. WONDERFUL performance. She can ACT! Half way through the movie and I was on Amazon buying the DVD!

I was really surprised as well. Mariah can definitely act and the accent was on. Great movie. Hope her upcoming movie, Tennesse, is as good as this one.

Mariah can't her way out of a paper bag. And speaking of paper bags, Mariah should wear one over her had at all times. She should stick to her music career.
