Mandy Moore The Surprise of ‘Saved’
David Rooney of Variety reviewed Mandy Moore’s new movie ‘Saved’. He called Moore the “real surprise” of the film, claiming she’s “infinitely better served by this material than by her recent excursions into vanilla sentimentality, ‘How to Deal’ and ‘Chasing Liberty’.” He explained, “Recalling her harder-edged performance in ‘The Princess Diaries,’ Moore’s role here is a controlling monster cloaked in a patina of sanctimonious piety and hidden insecurity. And if there’s a criticism to be leveled at the actress’s highly amusing turn, it’s that the director cuts away too early from Moore’s exuberantly cheesy pop stylings as she croons for Christ.”
