Sydney White Reviews

| Original Score: 1/5 | Nov 18, 2011

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 17, 2011

| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 19, 2008

This surprisingly clever coed reworking of Snow White does for dorks what Revenge of the Nerds did for, well, you know.

| Original Score: B | Feb 22, 2008

A lot of the acting is in the broad Disney Channel style.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Oct 6, 2007

A perky and chaste Y.A. update on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

| Original Score: B- | Sep 26, 2007

One of the dopiest, goofiest, and yes, I guess you can say, sneezy-ist and sleepy-ist, movies of the year.

Full Review | Sep 25, 2007

...should satisfy Bynes fans looking for a pleasant, innocuous follow-up to her last vehicle.

Full Review | Sep 25, 2007

Ms. Bynes, with her cherubic face, expressive eyes and comic timing, helps create a positive, pleasing diversion that caters to the geek in all of us.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 21, 2007

Sydney White's message of embracing all kinds of people and not quaking in fear of the elite and popular is a sound one, but each twist and turn is so telegraphed and expected that the story feels wan and the comedy feeble.

How hard could it be to make a clever parody of Snow White? Very hard, apparently.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 21, 2007

Snow White joins a sorority and gets some Revenge of the Nerds friends in Sydney White, a cute comedy for girls.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Sep 21, 2007

On television, Amanda Bynes' tendency toward slapstick can come across as sitcom-cute. Blown up on the big screen, it's the equivalent of a hammer hitting you over the head. For 90 minutes. In surround sound.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 21, 2007

As Sydney White again demonstrates, [Amanda Bynes] just doesn't seem to have found a script that lives up to her comic potential.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 21, 2007

Dorks deserve better than this. Amanda Bynes deserve better than this. Most importantly, audiences deserve better than this.

| Original Score: D+ | Sep 21, 2007

This is not your middle-schooler's Amanda Bynes. While her female fans will appreciate that 21-year-old Bynes is growing up with them, maybe her next movie will stretch beyond the fractured fairy tale.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 21, 2007

Sydney White, according to its producers, is a sequel to Hilary Duff's A Cinderella Story, and it shares with that 2004 film the vacuum-like ability to suck the fun out of a fairy tale.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 21, 2007

While the film's premise is shamelessly hokey and Joe Nussbaum's direction is at best pedestrian, props are due the young cast, especially Bynes, whose can-do optimism seems genuine if ultimately overdone.

| Sep 21, 2007

From the contrived romance to the hazy lavender eye make-up that Sydney sports in every scene, there's nothing real about this film.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Sep 21, 2007

A feeble college comedy aimed at middle schoolers.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Sep 21, 2007
