 | I saw this movie when it first came out on DVD, and fell in love with it. So I decided to buy it on DVD.
First the review of the movie (5/5): 25 year old Josie Geller works for the Chicago Sun Times and is appointed as an undercover reporter to do a story on the kids in high school. Having been an outcast and tormented endlessly in school when she was young, she now gets a second chance to finally fit in, and if possible, live her dream of becoming popular, find the right guy, and get a good story all at the same time.
I thought this movie was great. I mean, most people in high school never really fit in, and watching this movie is like relating to a fantasy that would never become true for most of us. Anyway, Drew Barrymore acted superb as Josie and the chemistry between her and Sam Coulson (Michael Vartan) was well done. The rest of the cast like Molly Shannon, David Arquette and John Reilly provided good humor for this movie.
Now coming to the review of this DVD: Ok, since this is kind of an old movie, and the DVD was probably released when the concept of DVDs first came out, but that doesn't mean that they should include ONLY a theatrical trailer in it. Forget special features, there isn't even a cast and crew information section in this DVD. At least they could have added that. THAT is why I removed a star and gave this a 4-star rating.
Anyway, whether this DVD is packed with features or not, this is a fun movie to watch if you just want to see a light hearted romantic comedy. If you liked movies like "Romy and Michele's High School Reunion" you will definitely like this.

 | This movie is very cute and a nice light comedy. I appreciate how it is stressed that high school popularity only really matters in high school, but out in the real world it doesn't mean anything. Drew Barrymore's character makes discoveries about herself that raises her self-esteem. She comes to realize that an attractive guy can really like her for her, and that waiting for your first kiss can make it even more meaningful. That's definitely what I think, anyway. Watch this movie. It's a great chick flick. |

 | I'm not a mean person and I do like drew barymore, but this movie was not that good. Kinda stupid and drew did a poor acting job in the film about a reporter undercover at a local high school. And what is up with the way she looked? Drew use to be so cute when she was younger (Bad Girls, Boys on the side) She just looked very unattractive in this movie especially at the end with no make up on when she waited for him to kiss her, her eyes looked all big like cow eyes very far apart, and her nose looked like michael jackson's, and she was a little overweight in the movie too. Maybe I'm being harsh. She was pretty in 50 first dates and charlie's angels. I guess she is just the type to need alot of make up. She was hot years ago!! |
