The filmвЂ™s dialogue has a way of combining teen appearance concerns with odd product placement. Drumline is currently available to rent, purchase, or stream via subscription on Max Go, Cinemax Amazon Channel, DIRECTV, Apple iTunes, Vudu, Amazon Video, Microsoft Store, Redbox, AMC on Demand. Cannon, the breakout star of last yearвЂ™s Drumline is solid, although his screen charisma is too strong to ever allow him to be a believable nerd. He initially flounders in his new world, before realizing that it takes more than talent to reach the top. Comedian Steve Harvey has a particularly amusing turn as AlvinвЂ™s father, who in an atypical Hollywood stance, is thrilled to discover that his son might be having sex and proceeds to school him in the playaвЂ™s finer points of using a condom. A fish-out-of-water comedy about a talented street drummer from Harlem who enrolls in a Southern university, expecting to lead its marching band's drumline to victory.

Everyone, of course, learns the meaning of true friendship before the movie is over. Paris is a cheerleader whoвЂ™s dating an NBA player (named Dru Hilton вЂ“ which means, through a curiously timely coincidence, that if Paris marries Dru sheвЂ™d become Paris Hilton), and she manages to turn nerdy Alvin into hot Al practically overnight.

When Paris has a wreck in her motherвЂ™s Cadillac Escalade (the movie is very product-placement oriented вЂ“ just ask J.LoвЂ™s ex Sean Combs, whose music and Sean John clothing line is in constant evidence), Alvin offers to fix it for free using his camshaft money if she promises to pretend to be his girlfriend for a couple of weeks. The story kicks into gear when high school nerd Alvin Johnson (Cannon), a whiz of an automobile engineer, offers to use the money he was going to spend on a new camshaft for the scholarship-eligible car he is building with his three other nerd friends, on winning the most popular girl at school Paris Morgan (Milian). Director Beyer co-wrote the script with CanвЂ™t Buy Me LoveвЂ™s screenwriter Michael Swerdlick. The plot remains essentially the same, except the film title substitutes the name of a J.Lo song for the originalвЂ™s Beatles song title.

The new movieвЂ™s not awful, it does its job but thereвЂ™s little more to say about it than that. Love Don't Cost a Thing is an 'urbanized' (read African-American) remake of the 1987 teen comedy CanвЂ™t Buy Me Love starring Patrick Dempsey, Cindy Mancini, and Seth Green. What we have here is another uninspired remake of a movie that was never crying out for revisitation in the first place.
