Kelly Clarkson's fresh-faced, small-town-girl charm--the charisma that led her to win the first season of American Idol--is on full display in From Justin to Kelly, a contemporary beach-party movie co-starring her former competition, Justin Guarini. The flimsy plot--Kelly and two gal pals go to the beach for spring break, where one of her friends gets jealous of Kelly and tries to ruin her budding romance with Justin--is just an excuse for glossy pop musical numbers, in which Kelly, Justin, and the rest of the cast exercise their glossy throats with lots of white soul vocal stylings. The best musical numbers suggest a new kind of disco-fueled pop operetta, with everyone singing the story along; you may wish that Kelly and Justin sang their way through the entire movie, never speaking at all. Plenty of skin--from girls and boys--is on display, but the overall tone is squeaky clean. --Bret Fetzer
Description
America's favorite "Idols" Justin Guarini and Kelly Clarkson make the leap to the big screen in this high-energy comedy set during spring break in Miami-where the music, dancing, and fun in the sun never stop. It's love at first splash when a shy singer (Clarkson) from Texas hooks up with a cute Pennsylvania college student (Guarini) at the ultimate beach party, but a series of mix-ups and misunderstandings may prevent their budding romance from reaching the final round!

Not as bad as they say August 28, 2007

This movie gets a bad rap because alot of those who watched it for the first time did not already know the personalites of the top two contestants on the First Season of Idol.
If you are a fan of the first season it is not nearly as bad.
It would have been better to use all of the top 10 to fill the roles on this film than to get a bunch of no names.
Tamyra Gray especially would have done a better job as Kelly's best friend, and it's obvious that is who they are modeling her after.
On the non theatrical version on the dvd you actually get to see Justin do more than they let him in the non extended version, which was at the theathers.
His sincere solo "From me to You" would have given the film more substance., and his dance number with Kelly and the rest of the gang "Shining Star" would have given it more weight upon it's inital release.
Why they were cut is really strange to me.
The only think I can think of is that in these two numbers Justin, the Runner Up, out shines Kelly, the Winner, which he did most of the first season anyway.

A good movie reminds me when I was a teenager. This movie is more for pre-teens who are looking for that special moment. Justin Guarini was hot! Kelly Clarkson was awesome as well. But you must admit Justin Guarini can move and make you feel like a teenager all over again!
I loved it. September 2, 2006

Okay it's a young love story, it's not going to blow you over with the storyline. Other than that... I believe Kelly and Justin are still the best things to come from American Idol, and their very appealing personalities shine brightly in this movie. I've seen it numerous times, and still enjoy it each time.
 I'm being generous because... July 25, 2006

of Kelly Clarkson's vocals in the movie. I actually bought it used just to check it out and get a good laugh. I got what I expected...lousy plot, lousy acting and scripted beach dance routines,and got a good laugh! However, I like Kelly Clarkson, and she's cute in this film, so I'm being nice. Not the worse movie of all time, but definitely one that I haven't watched again.
