Critical reception
[edit]A review from The Hollywood Reporter was negative, stating that the "script reads like a half-hearted attempt to get from one musical number to the next — forgivable, perhaps, if any of the songs were worth hearing. Our would-be Bieber and Britney do the best they can with risible material and choreography that will inspire pity from generous viewers — their song-and-dance interrupted by a couple of comic relief subplots so corny and overacted one imagines they’re leftover from a porn parody of vampire flicks. Production design and costumes are similarly low-grade."[2]
