Review

for being a teen movie with the usual teen movie clichés and poor acting, unexceptional direction and script, this one is actually not bad. there are a couple decent lines in the film and it’s basically a modern day my fair lady/pygmalion in high school. it doesn’t take itself too seriously and has a nice balance of comedy, cheeseball romance, drama, and intrigue. it’s not in the same league as john hughes’ best stuff, but i wouldn’t’ consider sacrilege to mention it alongside his lesser films.
