Summary: SPICE UP YOUR LIFE
Review: A carefree, fun movie for anyone! Well, not for dumb people who think movies need complicated plots and good acting to make an awesome movie, but this is what life is really like! Fly by the seat of your pants, enjoy every moment, dress up in funny costumes. And most of all love yourself for who you are. Even though the film is considered a cult film it is a blast to watch even if you AREN'T a spice fan. It's so stupid it's hilarious (kinda like the live action George of the Jungle) and the music is great. I truly recommend this movie for a party cuz that's the time laughs come the easiest and stupid stuff doesn't matter. You know you want it!

Summary: The World's Worst Movie
Review: Spiceworld was the absolutely worst movie I have ever seen. It has no plot and only shows 5 losers running around making fools of themselves and being an embarrasment to Britain.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Um..... what was that?
Review: I'm begining to understand why The Beatles left England. This movie is the cinematic equivilant of watching paint dry. Here, at last, is a movie where one can miss 30 minutes of it and not miss any plot points. It's the kind of movie you shouldn't buy snacks for because there's no telling how long they'll stay down. This flick is as contrived and mindless as their music. But I suppose the point is that they made lots of money -- they certainly got my brother's [money]. I suppose it's my own fault for watching it. A good veiwing tip would be a full-frontal lobotomy. Spice up your life....

Summary: Fun, Fun Movie
Review: Considered now by many as a cult classic, "Spice World," marks the feature-film debut of Britain's most famous band since the Beatles. Directed by television veteran Bob Spiers ("Ab Fab"), the movie focuses on the girls during a few days in their hectic life, as they prepare for their big gig at Royal Albet Hall in London.

The movie's camp factor helps in boosting the film's appeal with teenagers and pop-culture fans, and although the acting is not that great, the film gives us many hilarious scenarios including a Mission Impossible-based fantasy called "Spice Force 5," and an enjoyable photo shoot where the girls imitate major pop icons of the past and themselves.

The songs from the band's first two albums provide the film's soundtrack with a diverse selection of tunes that keeps the film together. I only wished that producers released a compilation album of the band's songs that were remixed for this film ("Who do You Think You Are" sounds wicked in a techno beat).

The film's other highlight includes multiple cameo appearances by such personalities as Sir Elton John, Bob Geldof, Meatloaf, Bob Hoskins, Roger Moore, George Wendt, and one of the actress from the "Ab Fab" series. All give wonderful comic performances.

The film's worst scene involves the girls' encounter with aliens during a midnight hike in the woods. Personally, this scene seems out-of-place in such a film. Richard E. Grant is great as the girls' manager, and the film's subplot of a tabloid thrasher going after the girls makes it much more fun to watch.

Reminiscent of a "Hard Day's Night," Spice World will garner more new fans throughout the year as the film is aired on television and at midnight-movie festivals. If you want a fun, fun movie, wthen this is it!

Summary: Spice World
Review: I bought this movie for my 7 year old daughter, and we have fun watching it. It's about 5 girls having fun, and along the way, some difficulties. This movie is not made to make you think about anthing. It's made to make you laugh and sing along with the songs.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Great! ...what more can i say
Review: They did it again...I have been listening to this album for almost 2 years!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: They've Done It Again!
Review: This album was great. I think that I'm the only guy in my class that owns this Cd, and am not ashamed to say it either. I was once in a record store, when I looked over at the new release section and seen the Spice Girls new CD. I was a Spice Girl fan when "Spice" came out, but then died off, due to no releases. When I seen the new album, I basically, was like "oh wow, they have new CD out, good for them" basically thinking that my days as a Spice Girl fan was over. I went home that very same day, and seen "Spice Up Your Life" on MTV, and loved it. I bought "Spiceworld" two days later! What a great bargain! I ended up having to buy the CD 4 times, cuz i ruined the other ones. I have a CD tower, which I place my CD's from my favorite, to least favorite. Number 1 is "Northern Star" from Melanie C, followed by "Spice World" from the Spice Gals! Later on in 1998, I bought there single "Goodbye" which I hope is on the album that they are going to release in fall. Speaking of which, will have the first single off of it titled "Let Love Lead The Way" Well, there isn't much else to say, except that Spiceworld with worth the $ you pay!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Better than "Spice"!
Review: I got this for Christmas two years ago and I liked it from the start! "Spice Up Your Life" is a great song to put at the beginning of the CD. And it just got better from there.

As for "Denying" and "Viva Forever", I have to admit I don't listen to them that much unless I'm in the mood to listen to those songs. But I still like them though.

And as I said in my summary, I think it's better than their debut CD. In fact, I can't wait to get their new CD(if it comes out soon)!

And no, I am NOT a teenybopper!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: If you're a true fan, you'd like it
Review: Who cares if the plot made no sense, who cares if they couldn't act, what did you expect? These are the Spice Girls! No one ever nominated them for a Grammy, so why should you critize them for not trying to use millions of dollars to get an Oscar nomination? It's sorta sick to see so many movies try to break box office records and get Oscar noms. They just wanted to make a movie in which you could just sit back and laugh. They didn't expect to last forever as a band, or actresses. So get over it! I got this movie over a year ago and I still watch it from time to time. It's just a time capsule of how earth was durin the brief moment it was known as Spice World. It would've been worse if these girls actually took themselves seriously and tried to go off and act in 'real movies'. If you're a true fan of these girls, you'll watch it.
