Standing Ovation

Poor acting, mediocre music, and backstabbing antics dominate this teen-geared, unrealistic, lackluster comedy in which a talented, tenacious Atlantic City student (Kayla Jackson), who lives with her gambling-addicted grandfather (P. Brendan Mulvey) and songwriter brother (Austin Powell), and her 5 Ovations group of 12-year-old singers (Monique Impagliazzo, Alexis Biesiada, Pilar Martin, and Najee Wilson) make a music video with the help of a streetwise Italian girl (Joei DeCarlo) and the smitten son (William McKenna) of a music studio owner to compete against other singers (Alanna Palombo, London Clark, Ashley Cutrona, Erika Corvette, Devon Jordan, et al.) in New York City in an attempt to win $1 million.
