It's never a good sign when the back cover can't correctly identify the characters. Shana and Aja are mixed up. But it's okay, I guess. It's not like black and Asian girls really matter. Just white-wash 'em and toss whichever name on them. Isn't that the way it works in this movie?In all seriousness, I haven't read the book and won't because, let's face it--when a book cover has a couple pretty significant errors, it's just lain not possible to trust that the information inside will be accurate. Sometimes books can be judges on their covers, and this is one of those times.
I'll start by saying that older fans of the series are, obviously, not the target audience of this book. It's a Scholastic book so let's be realistic. If I were younger then I'd probably enjoy this more than I did. I knew that going into it though. I mainly just bought this so that I'd have some souvenir of the movie as Hasbro has not and probably will not be releasing any merchandise to go along with the movie. The book itself has some very simple bios on the Holograms and some very basic info about the supporting characters. It does have some nice pictures that show off the girl's various costumes (which I was hoping for and the main reason I bought the book). The book is also done in character as more of a souvenir book you'd get at a show rather than a behind-the-scenes of the making of the movie. And yes they do mistake Aja and Shana on the back cover but not in the book itself. A tween kid who liked the movie would probably love this book though.
This book doesn't offer much to read - it's mostly photos with text message-looking speech bubbles describing what's being shown. The descriptions are short narratives from the characters and say stuff like "Me Being sooo LA!" and "my sisters are everything to me!".There are a few simple quizzes to take to find out which hologram you are the most like as well as some Top Ten Lists made by the characters (Top Ten Ways to become a Youtube Sensation, Top Ten Ways to be Cutting-edge Cool") Overall a really simplistic book that seems more like one of those themed magazines you can pick up at Toys R Us on the way to the checkout. Some of the photos are used more than once which is lame.
While this movie was not in the theaters long, my girls were very excited to see it as they were fans of the cartoon. This book does a good job at introducing you to the characters and you get a glimpse into the movie too with images from the film and brief introductions to the characters themselves. The book could have gone deeper into depth into the characters in my opinion, as you only get a brief glimpse into who is in the movie.*I received this for review - all opinions are my own*
Poorly executed, poorly written, poorly designed. Save your money.
Hell to the no... Everything about this is just wrong, wrong, WRONG. Hollywood insults us with this reverse evolution of Jem into a loser Hannah Montana remake.... even though it was Hannah Montana that stole its whole concept from Jem. Clearly these people didn't care, they just threw this mess together, called it Jem and the Holograms to pull in those of us who watched the show, and hoped to cash in. Bull.
Everything is wrong with this book there is mainly pictures. I prohibit Jem lovers to buy the book and movie. Stick with the cartoon.Also another thing is it is all over the place not a thing make sense
My daughter flipped out! So happy, plus the posted insert is a nice touch and not too large.
