Your critique has merit, and credit for actually watching it. I had trouble with the ruined voice as well.

If lindsay wasn’t using the memory of an icon and wasn’t part of this insult to Elizabeth (she stopped a number of these from happening when she was alive. Even the name of the project is an insult, they hated being called Liz and dick!), then yes I would not be as ‘critical’ of lilo. But thats not the case; She knows better and only did this for herself. She should have played a fictional character In something unrelated to Elizabeth. People would have been kinder and more supportive. I know I would have.

As a free-thinking individual, I found it atrocious but hilarious. It was terrible, but entertaining. This does not make me a “sheeple”, it makes me someone with a different opinion than, well, apparently the few and far between. Which is fine – people can not hate it if they don’t want to hate it, but I did and I’m comfortable with that. It was a personal decision.

I can’t get over her voice! I saw scene of Mean Girls earlier and I was blown away by how different her voice sounds. She has absolutely ruined her voice with all the cigarettes she smokes.

I super appreciate your positive attitude, I really do, but it was truly AWFUL. I just want Lindsay to go away, get healthy, take some more acting classes, get back to her craft and start doing some real work in like, five years.

agreed. esp about the sheeple thing- but at the same time…

I thought LL had talent back in the day, and I kind of expected it to be a decently rendered movie that got panned because of her presence. I was a little surprised by the flimsy performance (the speech issue was unavoidable for me), i didn’t like the movie, i never felt like i was watching liz taylor, it felt like watching lilo in a tv movie, but i think lifetime just knew that they could cash in big on the criticism.

This movie was a joke! Lindsay Lohan was never a very good actress even when she wasn’t a crackhead. While it might not have been awful as far as made-for-lifetime movies go the fact that she was supposed to be portraying an American cinematic legend and iconic beauty is not only disrespectful to Liz Taylor’s legend (which is why her estate was absolutely AGAINST this monstrosity), it’s one of the funniest jokes of 2012! LL was never any of the adjectives used to describe Liz Taylor and she never will be

Just saw the clip where Liz gets the news of his death, that was the best laugh I had in a long while and it’s over someone’s death, what is the world coming to?

Didn’t watch the movie but saw five 2 minute clips from it this morning. Yes, it was bad, maybe people who think it wasn’t that bad are beginning to lower their standards on what they will accept as decent acting and story telling. Sad. This is why we will always have her acting, Paris singing and KK just here.

I just watched 2 1/2 minutes of clips from this movie. I am going to watch the whole thing soon, but my first impression is that, for all the criticism of Lindsay’s looks that goes on here, she has too girlish a face to play this woman. Lindsay apparently always looks the same age and weight in the film, and consequently, in every clip or still I have seen, she looks like she is playing dressup. She seems not to have tried to sound like Elizabeth Taylor at all, and every person in this movie looks way older than her. Elizabeth Taylor was 32 when she married Burton; Lindsay is 26 and it shows. The “Not that I’m counting…/”Who’s counting?” exchange (and I realize this is the writers’ fault) makes zero sense, and the faint after Liz gets the news of Burton’s death is hilarious. Some reviewer commented that it looks like an SNL skit, and right now, I would have to agree with that assessment.
