Reviews for Crossroads
Top CriticA bizarre piece of work, with premise and dialogue at the level of kids' television and plot threads as morose as teen pregnancy, rape and suspected murder

Top CriticIt manages to charm by evoking that special summer-road-trip vibe, despite the movie's many potholes and pit stops.

'Doesn't it feel like we left home a million years ago?' (and it did).
02/16/02
Admittedly, I'm rather indifferent to Britney and her music, but still I didn't mind this film.

...a plethora of mixed messages for teenage girls...

Clichés pile up in Crossroads, but it's harmless, powder-puff fun.
02/14/02
Like one long commercial for Britney Spears, her moves and her music.
02/15/02
Utterly formulaic and forgettable teen trifle.

Crossroads adopts such a self-important tone that it's embarrassing.

I liked a Britney Spears movie!

To paraphrase Oscar Wilde or someone equally irked by melodrama, you'd have to have a heart of stone to watch a film like Crossroads without laughing.

An appealing chick flick about three friends who explore together the scary and exhilarating transition from adolescence to adulthood.
