A little research on my part revealed that the singing group S Club never really took off in North America. Watching this feature length movie starring the members of the group gives some clues as to why that might have been. To start with, the music in the movie isn't exceptional at all. It's not awful, but it's interchangeable and instantly forgettable. But that's not by far the only problem with the movie. The script is a main offender; the thin story is stretched out past the breaking point, and the members of S Club are written to be extremely bland and lacking serious personality... when they don't come across as being incredibly stupid. What's worse is that all of this material is directed in a manner that gives what's happening in front of this almost no energy or enthusiasm at all. It's easy to see why this movie never got a theatrical release on this side of the Atlantic.
