Critics Consensus

A cliched and silly pop star vanity project, Crossroads is strictly for Britney fans only.

Nell Minow Common Sense Media Britney bomb isn't appropriate for her young fans. Rated: 2/5 Dec 22, 2010 Full Review Empire Magazine Rated: 2/5 Dec 30, 2006 Full Review Sara Michelle Fetters MovieFreak.com I can see the hate mail now. If this film starred anyone else, I'd be safe. Throw a polarizing superstar like Britney Spears into the mix, however, and all bets are off. Rated: 2.5/4 Jun 19, 2003 Full Review Felix Vasquez Jr. Cinema Crazed A stinker from top to bottom... Jun 8, 2013 Full Review Mark Halverson Sacramento News & Review Rated: 2/5 Aug 7, 2008 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com Naive and amateurish in both the negative and positive sense of these terms, Crossroads provides a disappointing showcase for pop icon and youth symbol Britney Spears, who pretends to be the new-retro Sandra Dee.

Dennis S Very nostalgic to be able to see this movie again in theatre’s. Loved Britney in this . ❤️ Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/26/23 Full Review eloy a beautiful coming of age film, amazing acting & story. loves it Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/24/23 Full Review Farah R If you try to watch Crossroads for the story, it's predictable, and if you try to watch it for Britney Spears, she sings way better than she can act. There's nothing here worth watching at all. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/22/24 Full Review Jennette L Britney's acting is fabulous and what a great concept. Many social topics ahead of it's time for this film and felt all the feels. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/04/24 Full Review Tom F I am newly aware of the existence of this Britney vehicle. Aside from some time capsule value, I don't think I was missing anything. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 04/12/24 Full Review Jack t Well, since that movie had quickly caught my interest and since that this is the only movie that Britney Spears has ever starred in, I thought I should just go ahead and start this review without wasting any time. The trio, Lucy, Kit, and Mimi played by Britney Spears, Zoe Saldana and Taryn Manning, bury a "wish box" and vow to dig it up on the night of their high school graduation. But that honestly never happened until eight years later on their graduation night when they reunite to dig up the "wish box", remembering their old wishes: Kit wanted to get married, Lucy wanted to find her mother who abandoned her, and Mimi wanted to travel to California which they decide to go. So the trio including Ben go to California to have their wishes come true. I like Britney Spears, I listen to her songs when I was a little kid. I listened to songs "...Baby One More Time", "(You Drive Me) Crazy" and "Oops!... I Did It Again", but I cannot get over at how outrageously hilarious the lyrics are in the other version. It was nice to see Dan Aykroyd and Kim Cattrall in it. That was quite a surprise for me. Another thing is Zoe Saldana is in it too. Next time you'll get to her in Avatar and Guardians of the Galaxy. But what's really surprising to me is that I actually enjoyed this movie. Yeah I gotta say, this is way better than the live action Bratz movie. Yes, I said that title many times when it comes to chick flicks. And another thing is that the film was panned by critics and audiences. Yeah, I know I heard that the critics hated it back in the day. It got many razzie noms including two others that won. Goddamn. But in later years, it gained a cult following by many people who liked it so that's one thing. If you like Britney Spears and many chick flicks in general, you'll might like this one. For what it is, it's quite a surprise. That got me fulfilled to the end. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/11/24 Full Review Read all reviews
