i kinda feel bad for haylie duff.


haylie definitely got the talent of the family. but she'll suffer because she's hilarys sister.

i honestly,completely,positively,100% agree.

i agree as well. she's got both the better looks and talent out of the two of them.

reply

Talent? I've never seen Hilary or Haylie in anything, but this movie is terrible and Haylie's 'acting' is amateurish, to put it kindly. Paris Hilton got criticized for her acting in House Of Wax, but she was a hundred percent more believable in that than Haylie is in this. Awful movie.

reply

well, let's put it in perspective. i was referencing the two of them. i wasn't comparing her to meryl streep.

i haven't seen a lot of her films, but when i've been exposed to them, usually out of a sheer need of guilty pleasure of mind numbing, sugary goodness, i've been happy with what haylie does. she's actually a hell of a lot of fun in material girls. now, that is one movie going nowhere fast, but it's dumb fun and she puts in one hell of a performance for the genre.

so, yeah, it's not art. not even close. but she's good eye candy and she does well for what she in.

and i'll pick her over hilton and a lot of the more accomplished actresses out there any day.

So wait, she wasn't even the main character or a big deal in this. I Don't even know which one she was. Was she the one who killed herself? Why is her name the only one on the cover and her picture on the front?

In the end, Okonkwo threw the Cat.

Haylie was good in Napoleon Dynamite...

could be not much of a stretch, though....

I THOUGHT that chick that hunted those wolverines looked familiar...

In the end, Okonkwo threw the Cat.

reply

I find Haylie SO much hotter then her sister!...she's cute AND sexy!

that being said, she was just 'OK' in this movie...given the material, she had to act scared all the time, etc...not exactly Oscar worthy material.

I don't think she's suffering too much. Look at her IMDB page ! She's getting steady work. Right now a lot of FLUFF..... but she's improving all the time !
I think she'll go far !
