Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
S Club's Seeing Double will be best remembered as the film that marked the end of the band. Their demise wasn't caused by this film being particularly dire but rather their big-screen outing was the contractual glue, which kept the group together a little longer than they probably wished. Incorporating the standard pop movie themes--a control-freak manager, over-zealous fans and the stresses of living on the road--the film also makes the customary tongue-in-cheek references to the fragility of manufactured pop groups.

Centred around the S Clubbers' shock discovery that clones of the band are touring America, the film tracks the six as they attempt to capture the impostors and their evil creator, Victor Clonemaster. Peppered with some of their greatest hits--including a musical-style version of "Don't Stop Movin'" performed in a prison--their back catalogue is surprisingly under used.

As the group admit in the accompanying interviews, this film is no masterpiece. There are no glitzy special effects and the clones of the six are created by clever camera angles rather than anything more fancy. Like Spiceworld with its Tardis tour bus, all sense of reality and location gets lost during the film. Despite some establishing shots, it's difficult to work out where the action of the film is supposed to be taking place: is it Los Angeles, Barcelona or a set at Elstree? But the need to suspend all sense of reality adds to the fun of the film, and like a Children's Film and Television Foundation production from the 1970s, this turns out to be good, wholesome entertainment, which mixes adventure, fun and irony.

On the DVD: Seeing Double on disc has some exceedingly good value extras, including a fun interactive interview section, which allows you to select (a limited number of) questions to be answered individually by the six. There are comprehensive fact files on the S Clubbers, a photo gallery and a tough interactive quiz too. --John Galilee

Video Description
Seeing Double is a fly-by-the-seat-of-your pants adventure movie starring chart-topping pop sensation S Club. When the band discover an impostor S Club performing live on TV from Los Angeles they fly to LA where they enter a sinister world of cloning, communal showers and mistaken identities. So fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy ride, as S Club set about unravelling the Evil Clonemaster's plot to take over the world. And no, your eyes aren't tricking you, you really are Seeing Double...

5.0 out of 5 stars BEST, 25 Aug 2003
By A Customer
This is the best childrens comedy movie ever made, I am a big fan of s club and found it extremely good, but if you are'nt a fan it is still VERY good, my friends saw it with me and they don't usually like S Club, but they thought this was brilliant. The story is that the band get cloned by an evil scientist called Victor Gaghan, the clones take over their job, so of course, s club have to get their job back. The film starts off in Barcelona and moves on to Los Angeles half an hour in. This is an exciting and VERY funny film. Five stars*****.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing compared to TV Series, 29 Oct 2003
This review is from: Seeing Double [DVD] [2003] (DVD)
The movie 'Seeing Double' lacks a convincing plot, overall credibility and consists of a series of '3-second clips' from beginning to end. The sequences of the 'clips' are so fast, even today's teenagers attention span will be challenged! I found the TV Series was much more entertaining and on that basis and the positive on-line reviews for the film, I bought the DVD. Very disappointing! The entire film simply capitalizes on the band members' good looks - the girls are undeniably attractive and cute and if this is all you want, fine. However, there was no character development and they mostly behaved like primary school kids on a days outing at a theme park.
In this case, the movie producers couldn't have given much time and thought to the story-line and it is apparent that no acting training was invested in it's cast who simply relied on looks and mediocre personality.
On a positive note - thankfully, S Club have maintained their 'clean' image and you will find few movies now that avoid 'bad language' and 'distasteful' behaviour in any setting. Again, the TV series brings out the best in S Club's performances with much more credibility and believable personalities. It shows that the TV directors/producers know S Club better and direct them better. The movie producers let them down .. and us!

5.0 out of 5 stars Sclub is HOT,HOT,HOT, 18 Aug 2003
By Lotti (Lisboa, Portugal) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Seeing Double [DVD] [2003] (DVD)
my name is charlotte and i live in lisbon, portugal.
here, sclub aren't really that famous, not only because they don't promote the band enough here but also because people just don't like their music, therefore i had to order my DVD by amazon.co.uk which is a v.sad thing (AFTER ALL SCLUB ARE THE BEST).
the movie is absolutely amazing.. lots of fun and lots of laughs featuring, of course, SCLUB......
if u are a fan of them, u must have this DVD or VHS (u choose)...
SCLUB ARE REALLY HOT, SHAME THEIR SPLIT UP..
KISSES, CHARLOTTE
