- 63New York PostNew York PostIt isn't a really good movie, but there's real talent in it.
- 50Boston GlobeWesley MorrisBoston GlobeWesley MorrisIt doesn't belong at a megaplex. It should be playing on a Clear Channel station.
- 40Los Angeles TimesKevin CrustLos Angeles TimesKevin CrustThe whole movie could be clipped by about 95 minutes and it would make a swell little video for Simpson's performance of the title cut from the soundtrack.
- 40TV Guide MagazineKen FoxTV Guide MagazineKen FoxThe music is surprisingly good and there's a skateboarding bulldog that you've just gotta see to believe.
- 40VarietyRobert KoehlerVarietyRobert KoehlerAs a cautionary drama on the price of fame, Undiscovered could not tread on more exhaustively discovered territory, and the result is a reel-by-reel trail of cliches.
- 38New York Daily NewsJack MathewsNew York Daily NewsJack MathewsOn paper, the "rising stars" of Meiert Avis' low-flying romantic comedy Undiscovered are Steven Strait and Pell James, but the real star is Tyson the Skateboarding Dog.
- 30The Hollywood ReporterMichael RechtshaffenThe Hollywood ReporterMichael RechtshaffenAn entirely dispensable, soapy caricature of a love story that comes complete with a jukebox full of music industry cliches plus Ashlee Simpson's big feature film debut.
- 30Washington PostMichael O'SullivanWashington PostMichael O'SullivanTailored for the readership of Teen People magazine and about as thought-provoking as the average 500-word celebrity profile.
- Though filled with romantic contrivances and overlong musical numbers, Undiscovered is curiously lifeless. Bland actors portray single-cell characters in a plot scarcely more diverting than Ms. Simpson's reality vehicle, "The Ashlee Simpson Show."
- 25Seattle Post-IntelligencerBill WhiteSeattle Post-IntelligencerBill WhiteUndiscovered promotes one of the stupidest visions of the entertainment industry since "American Idol" opened the celebrity gateway to the dregs of the karaoke generation.
