I love this movie! Great performances by Lindsay and Rachel. A humorous look at the life of teenage girls in high school.

I didn't have high expectations for this one, thought it would be another Hollywoodo teen flick but a friend recommended it so I thought I'd give it a go. Was pleasantly surprised! Actually found it very funny in parts. Would like to watch it again some time.

I borrowed this DVD as I am a teacher and had heard it dealt with the way teenage girls can be intimidated by one another.
I felt the film explained this clearly.

Well done film, not just for teenagers, but for parents of teenagers, especially teenage girls.
Although the film is set in U.S.A., it could apply anywhere around the world.

film is about high school politics. meaningful and entertaining
Rebecca B.

something light hearted and funny in spots
Bernard N.
says
only watched 20 minutes decided it was just another teenage airhead movie and dumped it . not our cuppa tea folks
Rosemary N.
says
What a surprise. More than a teen flick, this is a thoughtful exploration of the book it's based on - Queen Bees and Wannabes. Very enjoyable movie with some thoughtful moments. Well worth watching with your daughters (and sons) as a way to discuss teen culture issues, especially, honesty, integrity, values and mean behaviour.

This is actually really good, and not just for 14 year olds (who are in any case just as entitled as everyone else to good films).
Paul G.

Chick flick but had me laughing through most of it, predictable storyline but still worth a look. Good.
Vicki A.

Written by (and co-starring) Tina Fey from Saturday Night Live, which is a good enough reason to watch this one.
Amber O.
says
A good spin on the typical teen movie. A good laugh!

I found that it had a few funnies that probably wouldn't be picked up by teens. I will definately recommend it.
Anthony F.
says
Does better than other teen high school comedies brought out at the time. Good one to watch with your teens.
Niki D.
says
The special features got me hooked..
Lucas T.
says
Good movie with something to say about growing up and school. Lohan is surprisingly appealing though the bad girls are as much fun to watch. Not as black as heathers but along the same lines.
Bronwyn M.

In the words of my 12 year old daughter, it is a good, yet exaggerated, depiction of what happens in a girl's life.
Paul P.
says
A good laugh!

Zoe R.

I've never been a fan of Lindsay Lohan but I was really impressed by her in this movie. This was a very amusing look at adolescent behaviour and will be liked by anyone who has had a teenage girl or has been one.
Sandra M.
says
Loved the humour. Loved the characters. Watched it twice in one day and got many giggles with each viewing.

Entertaining movie that has some funny moments. Lindsay Lohan is charming as the naive new girl and Lacey Chabert provides some comic relief.
Daniel Payne
says
This is my favorite movie of all time. Definitely the best teen movie of all time. Great performances by Lindsay Lohan and Rachel McAdams.
Violet Fawkes

Petama
says
Ok movie but thought it might be a bit more realistic like the other movie 'Thirteen' or was it 'Fifteen' which was a hard look at what might happen to teenager.
Jarrod Harrison
says
This is a really good teen film. I've watched it twice now and will watch it again. Good story, with good teen performances.
Chris D
says
Surprisingly good film, you don't have to be a teenage girl to enjoy the wit and social observations portrayed in this very enjoyable story. Bit of a frightener for anyone with daughters!
Michael Smallwood
says
Fun movie worth watching
Dianne Ashton
says
Fun movie with serious undertones. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Okay,it's a teenage movie and I'm pushing 60. However I did teach high school for a million years. Anyway, I really enjoyed this movie. It was one of the funniest films I have seen in a long time and the humour came from clever dialogue and not slapstick. Even my husband, who is not a teacher, laughed. One of the characters is the classic "blonde" and then some. Good for light entertainment with a bit of a message.

A bus driver gone postals dream, so many pedestrains only one bus. No the only aspect of this film that even slightly distinguishes it from others of this genre is the comparison of wild animals interaction in the jungle to the way people are today, somethings snapped in the core attitude of humanity if this is the new standard.
Vicki Raykos

Teenage Film....Not bad though... good moral.
Suzanne Roman

Very funny right through, very enjoyable movie.

Does OK in mixing a chick flick with a bit of a moral message, with some laughs along the way.
The Khangster
says
Surprisingly amusing and cute teen comedy rather than a chick flick. There are a few scenes that'll have viewers guffawing to tears, the yellow school bus of death, for instance. Lindsay Lohan is well-adapted for the role and played it to the hilt. The teachers are quite funny with their unique modus operandi. Overall, this one is a good diversion to the usual teen films.

Hmmm, not sure about this one. The idea was good, but the execution left a little to be desired. Somewhat clumsy version of 'Heathers'. A few laughs here and there.

At first I thought it was too girly, but then I saw what it was trying to say about highschool and it become more appealing! So go into it trying to look a bit deeper. Great acting and writing too.

A great movie for teenage girls to watch to see all the back stabbing does go on everywhere.
