Hating Alison Ashley
January 19th, 2007 by Jennine
Delta Goodrem stars in Hating Alison Ashley and contrary to most reviews I thought she did quite a passable job as the namesake, Alison Ashley. I must say though that Saskia Burmeister was exceptional as Erika Yurkin.
Erika is a dreamer and what she really dreams of is becoming a famous actress. She believes she is gifted and talented until Alison Ashley comes along. Initially, she tries to befriend Alison and then she becomes jealous and envious.
I believe most girls will be able to relate to this movie, especially those with their heads in the clouds. What I really enjoyed about Hating Alison Ashley was how accurate they made Erika’s imagination. I could totally relate to her daydreams and wanting to change her life. Also, the camp – that is spot on, the boys causing havoc, the teachers socialising after sending the children to bed.
I recommend this to every family, very enjoyable and brings back high school memories.

I agree. This movie was fantastic. While keeping the basically plot of the book it managed to modernise it and made the storyline better. I thought the movie was a little too short at the end, and really needs a sequel…how alison’s night at the yurken house went, barry and erica’s relationship, and especially how or if erica’s relationship with her family has changed. I would love to see erica’s mum’s wedding to lennie. So producers of this movie…Please make a SEQUEL.
