‘Material Girls’: Materially Without Value

Stephen Williams of Newsday reviewed Haylie and Hilary Duff’s new film ‘Material Girls’, giving it zero stars. He writes, “Madonna’s anthem was only good-naturedly arrogant, but the SoCal twins, like the film’s script, are arrogant, ghastly immature and offensive to any audience that isn’t all of the above. Hilary, as Tanzie Marchetta, is at her restrained best pretending she’s a hooker who gives skin-care tips to a trio of hags spending a night in the holding tank. But it’s for sure that acting wasn’t on anyone’s list of priorities in ‘Material Girls’. Overacting was. Haylie Duff, as Ava, the older sister, doesn’t shut up from start to finish.”
