Based on a true events. Sofia Coppola takes a shallow distant approach about a bunch of five hard partying teenage airheads obsessed with celebrity and designer names.
Using the internet they burgle celebrities Hollywood homes targeting when they are out of town. So they are not that vacuous.
Celebrities such as Megan Fox, Orlando Bloom, Lindsay Lohan, Rachel Bilson and Paris Hilton are all victims. In Paris Hilton's case repeatedly so, as she never notices any of her items are gone.
The teens party, take drink and drugs, drive erratically and break into houses. The film repeats the cycle and it is framed like some kind of faux reportage.
It does not work as a satire nor are the characters interesting. It all comes across as vapid, boring and disposable. Coppola does not even seem to be disapproving of such behaviour.
