Reviews

San Francisco Chronicle -
A joyous, hilarious send-up of rock star pretensions and an enchanting celebration of "girl power" in pop culture.

|
San Francisco Examiner -
Without much of a plot to speak of and relying almost entirely on the girls' star power and charisma - which they have in spades - turns out to be a truly entertaining movie for anyone with even a bare knowledge of the Spice Girls' history, which in this age of absolute over-saturation, is hard to avoid.
|
|
The New York Times -
Disarmingly, the film thus acknowledges the Spice Girls' flash-in-the-pan status and lets them kid around about their frankly synthetic career.
|
|
ReelViews -
Although the film is clearly trying to follow in the footsteps of the Beatles' classic, it's several long strides behind, lacking the same sense of originality, spontaneity, high energy, and joi de vivre.

Entertainment Weekly -
Shabbily filmed, thoroughly harmless Official Product.
