The threats are uncalled for, the ticket sales however are unfortunately deserved. The movie is alright, it has fun moments, the music is good, the acting and chemistry between the actors is great but it just isn't Jem.
If you liked it or loved it, great. But I was left disappointed.

THEY MADE THE BIGGEST FOOL OUT OF ALL OF THE JEM FANS!!!!!!!!!!! I gave it 4.5/10 only because of the fun that the young cast was having, but the movie SUCKS. Well yeah it is about a rock band but ANY ELEMENTS OF JEM are just labels to characters and places in the movie.
I hate this movie, but when I first heard that they were coming out with a movie in March 2014, I was ECSTATIC... but I learn that it's a cast of B/C/D listers and CHRISTY MARX ISN'T INVOLVED. And the trailer comes out? NUUUUUUUUUU ALL HELL BREAK LOOSE AND GOD FORBID THIS BECOME A MOVIE ABOUT... JEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah, any of you notice why there are hardly any people in the theaters? Because it SUCKS. IT IS HORRIBLE. If there ever comes an opportunity to see it, just avoid it at ALL costs, even if it's free. Do something better with your time, like watching the ORIGINAL JEM or listening to TheMitigating's videos. And I can see why Jon M Chu gets these death threats and bad talk. BECAUSE THIS MOVIE IS SCREWED UP AND MAKES THE ONE AND ONLY JEM LOOKS BAD.
The true moral of this story is "fame does not come from YouTube and worrying about how many "likes and fans and comments" received, but it comes from your heart, and your imagination." Of course YouTube and the Internet didn't EXIST in the 80s... ...but such a marvelous creation named Synergy had been discovered by Jem and The Holograms and with the use of RADICAL OUTFITS AND INSTRUMENTS they became Jem! Not with force by one of the Holograms. Jerrica was so totally determined when Eric was trying to take control of Starlight Music after Emmett's death, and she and the Holograms used their determination to become the amazing sensation that is Jem and The Holograms, as a way to stop Eric Raymond and save Starlight Music!!!!!!!!!! And not to mention all the action and drama and soap opera likeness and sci-fi and the MISFITS. Original songs!! GOOD OUTFITS!!!!!!! THE CARTOON AND JEM OF THE 80S IS 99999999999999999999999999999 TIMES BETTER THAN THE STUPID MOVIE THAT KILLED JEM'S MOMENTUM... because screw Hollywood, that's why.
In the movie, a deadbeat teenage girl lives with her "sisters" (wait, she only has one sister) and doesn't want to become famous. However she records herself playing a song (WHERE ARE THE EARRINGS) and Kimber uploads it to YouTube against her wishes. Pretty soon, she BREAKS THE INTERNET and is signed to Starlight Enterprises by Erica Raymond (Stingers reference during the email scene). Only performing a few concerts. Yep, only that much. And they screw up the characters (why is Rio Erica's son???) and think it is ok to use the characters' names as LABELS. Nope! JUST A NAME, not an actual movie. Maybe they should have called it "Teenage Internet Rejects" because that is what it REALLY IS. Oh and notice the very small budget used to create the movie?? Just a couple million dollars or something. Most of the hot movies take hundreds of millions of dollars and rake in millions and millions of dollars in the box office... however the JEM MOVIE rakes in NOT A LOT OF MONEY. But why? Oh yeah, if I told you once, I have told you an endless number of times. IT SUCKS.
The movie is truly truly truly SCREWED UP, NOT OUTRAGEOUS, AND STUPID!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But I will tell you that (and all of us know already) the original Jem from the totally tubular 1980s is TRULY TRULY TRULY TRULY TRULY OOOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUTRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGEOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUS forevaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh, and the best, the holy grail and the epitome of all pure things, AND THE FLIPPING ULTIMATE PERSONIFICATION OF ALL THAT IS GODLY, HEAVENLY, PURE, GOOD, RIGHT, FAITHFUL, AND OUTRAGEOUS!!
Then again, don't watch the movie. Don't waste your time. Don't waste your money. Stay true to the original.

Yeah, what little publicity the movie has received has been so negative and embarrassing, it certainly doesn't do the Jem fandom any favors.
I was just realizing again that there has been absolutely no merchandising accompanying this movie. I mean, not even a few dolls from Hasbro of just Jem, Kimber, Shana, and Aja based on the movie. Heck, even a little "Synergy" robot that played a few tunes or clips from the movie with lights or something. It's as if even Hasbro knew the movie was going to totally fail in every way, and didn't want to risk producing a few toys fearing they'd sit on shelves after the movie tanked.
How could they have allowed this to develop so badly? I an sincerely baffled by the whole thing.

Well, like I said once, and then again about a gazillion times. SCREW HOLLYWOOD. Sure there's Sephora, and ShopBop (love the vintage-inspired clothes), and all that.
The movie SUCKS. The comics are... good! AND THE ORIGINAL JEM FROM THE 80s IS---FOR THE WIN!!!!!!!! YEAAUAUHUHAUHAUHUHAHH!! OH MY GOD YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS I LOVE THE ORIGINAL 80s JEM!!!!!!!!!
If I were you, WATCH THE ORIGINAL SHOW. COLLECT THE 80s DOLLS AND MERCHANDISE. Try and afford the IT dolls. Take a good read of the comic. BUT STAY... AWAY... FROM... THE MOVIE.
