But experts warn that just because these bars are low in "net carbs"--the kind that affect blood sugar and can contribute to weight gain--they won't necessarily cause the pounds to melt away. Factors such as calories, fat and fiber and whether the bars are used as a snack or a meal replacement also weigh in.

The Bynes and Duff movie vehicles are more nakedly retro. What a Girl Wants is based on the '50s Sandra Dee bauble The Reluctant Debutante, while The Lizzie McGuire Movie could be Gidget Goes to Rome with an updated pop score. Both put their budding stars in glamorous foreign capitals (London...
