->''"We’ve known all along that DoctorOctopus had sinister designs in mind, of course, but really: a lab in a penthouse? That seems to violate any number of good safety rules. Surely a ground-floor lab would make evacuation in case of fire much easier, while a top-floor location could result in dangerous chemicals leaking through the floor into the living room of the hapless tenants below. I’m not so much ''angry'' with Doc Ock as I am ''disappointed''.”''

->''"It just goes to show how bankrupt the writers of ''{{Film/Glitter}}'' were when writing the script. They obviously can’t point historically to her changing the culture of music like other artists so the focus now becomes on [[Music/MariahCarey (Mariah) Carey’s]] personal struggles in life. Even focusing on that aspect, it is very dull and uninteresting. Billie gets taken away from her mother because her mother cannot support her and I think because she is an addict (can’t really say, the writing is terrible). The main dramatic element is Billie trying to deal with that and asking why her mother would do such a thing. I’m sorry, but contrast that to what Music/JohnnyCash had to go through in his life I look at this movie and say “so f*cking what?” Oh and maybe a “boo freaking hoo” thrown in for good measure. This does not really qualify as an underdog story and I’m not going to sit through two hours of melodramatic camp about how bad you had it. We all got it bad lady and your story doesn’t exactly qualify as being all that special or a hard knock life."''
