Let's face it, if you do a lifetime TV movie about Britney Spears, without the authorization of her family or her estate, therefore not gaining permission to use any of her songs - you know how it's going to turn out.
For what it is, the actress who plays Britney was not bad. But everyone else, including the pacing, editing and directing, was as abysmal as you would expect.
Britney's live (albeit lip-synced) performances were iconic, so the lack of them due to the non-authorization of her songs is probably the worst thing.
Her meltdowns are intertwined with interviews of her feelings on it - but I had so much trouble trying to identify with her struggles that the film just got more and more annoying.
A wasted opportunity.
