Editorial Review:
Obsessed with perfection, young gymnast Andie (Felicity's Amy Jo Johnson) nearly starves herself to realize her dream of making the Olympic gymnastics team. Told "the lighter the better" by her coach, Andie finds her perfect life crumbling as she tries to keep up with the competition. This compelling story realistically presents the issue of gymnastics and eating disorders. In addition to serving as technical advisor and choreographing the gymnastic routines, two-time Olympic gymnast Cathy Rigby stars as an assistant coach.
Perfect Body Reviews:
Perfect Body (Eating Disorders) 
2009-11-11 - I don't remember seeing this movie when it first came out. . but as soon as I heard about it, I looked it up on youtube. . I ended up buying it the next day.
Amy Jo Johnson does an excellent job as a high school teenager that becomes an olypmic contender and ends up having an eating disorder, that almost kills her.
Andie (Amy Jo Johnson) is very excited that she is finally training for the olypmics. While training, she meets a winner of the olypmics, Leslie Reynolds. The two becomes friends but are very competive with eachother. Andie is embrassed when the coach makes her get on a scale in front of everyone and is told that she is too fat. She starts doing her "own diet" where she is not really eating, until she is introduced to eating and then throwing up her food, thanks to Leslie. Andie goes on a downward sprial of being moody, being out of control, and being weak. She ends up almost killing herself, working so hard and not eating anything, she ends up in the hospital.
I recommend this movie to ANYONE. I love it, and it's definatly a favorite.
so boring so mediocre 
2008-12-01 - I kept forwarding couldn't wait it to its end, fortunately I just borrowed it - after reading all the positive feedbacks, I couldn't believe it.
For what it was.... 
2008-10-25 - This movie was perfect for young female gymnists to watch. It focuses on the pressures and stress of being in a competitive sport. I think the actress did very well in portraying a young girl with anorexia. This is a must see for everyone. Well done.
Great service !!!
