Summary: Leaves us in the dark
Review: The song "You Light Up My Life" was a mega hit back in 1977 for Debby Boone, the daughter of Pat Boone. This song, and several others included in the film are the only redeeming quality this film has to offer. A lousy screenplay with sub-par acting by the key players would make most of us want to see what's on the other channels. Don't watch the video late at night while in bed; you may fall asleep leaving the VCR and TV on.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: THE WORST MOVIE EVER
Review: This movie is horrible in every way. From Didi Conn's totally unbelievable lip-syncing to the unintentionally hilarious scene where a grown Didi bomb's on stage doing her child comedy act, it is a world class stinker.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Train wreck
Review: We love this movie only because you can make so much fun of it during the entire film. Not really sure what the true plot of the movie is? Truly can say that we do not root for the Didi Conn character at all during the movie or do we feel the warm fuzzies that others express. Her ruthless abandonment of her father at the end of the movie goes against all of morality she tried to uphold during the movie. Best parts of the film: The Neptune Wedding Chapel, Didi Conn being picked up in a bar with the worst one-liners ever, watching her flat hair become even flatter during each scene, her feeble attempt to lip-sync to the song "You Light up my Life" and the one after another disastrous 70's wardrobe outfits. This movie also leaves you with a lot of questions: If the film is based in LA then why does everyone talk with a New York accent? Why does she not take better care of her classic Thunderbird? Why was there not a "Light Up my Life 2" made so all the unanswered plots of the end of this movie could be answered?
