Review of Mean Girls (DVD)

------------------------- Mean Girls - DVD ------------------------- ----------------- Introduction ----------------- First off this is yet another outstanding chick flick I purchased about two years ago at HMV priced at £11.99. What amazing value! I chose this film because I had seen it released at the cinemas and I had also heard lots of friends talking about it so I went off down to get this from HMV as I had looked around at earlier dates ...
...for £16.99 and so I found that HMV was the cheapest place. So like many others would do I opted for purchasing this film at HMV. Also I have always been satisfied with HMV's custom and prices as they have not yet failed to have a DVD in stock that I have wanted to purchase. Lindsay Lohan and Rachel McAdams are the main stars in this all time favourite girly film which has entertained many viewers since first hitting the shops and has had huge sales ...

BACKGROUND ******************** I won free tickets for this movie. So I thought I would give it a go... It didn't look good to me, but it was free. Maybe, as it was free, it might be good.... PLOT ******* Cady Heron is a 16 years old girl. Her parents being zoologists, She has been raised in Africa, where she was home-schooled. She just lived withy her parents, some African people and of course all the wild animals. So when she come back to ...
...where everybody is very materialistic and unfriendly... She struggles, but end up making friends, Damian and Janis, who, in the terms of the high school, were kind of nerds. They portray other figures of the school to Cady. Especially "the Plastics", the three crude, beautiful, popular girls, consisting of Regina, the unofficial leader, Gretchen, and Karen. These girls are the Barbie-dolls if you prefer. Nothing interesting to say, ad their interest ...

...few weeks, we decided that Mean Girls could provide some entertainment or at least a way of escaping for a couple of hours! So, the film. Before I continue I must say that this has all the characteristics of a teen movie. It has the bitchy characters, it is set in as US high school, it has the outsider accepted by the ‘plastics’ (as they are called in this film or just downright bitches as we would know them!) and many other features, which I will ...
...However, that does not mean I’m not opening to criticising a little. One big thing I have a problem with is the part and I don’t really want to go into too much detail, yet it’s the bit were Regina is run over. Now if you eventually see the film, I think you’ll probably know what I mean when I say it is somewhat crude, unnecessary and totally not funny. It doesn’t necessarily detract from the overall thing, however it just simply surpasses belief! ...

...and my flatmate predictably choosing Mean Girls. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised, as it is not a bad film at all. Film Synopsis: Cady Heron (Lindsay Lohan) has been home schooled all her life, due to her parent's jobs as researchers in far flung places, until one day they get a job back in the good ols U S of A and Cady is sent to a regular school for the first time. She finds it to be a cold unfriendly place until misfits Janice Ian ...

The plastics are Gretchen Wiener, Karen Smith and led by super-bitch Regona George. They invite Cady to lunch one day and Janice sees this as the perfect opportunity to infiltrate the group. She convinces Cady to pretend to be one of them then report back to her. So she enters the weird world of ...

On the face of it Mean Girls just seems to be another teen comedy about bitchy girls & good looking guys & if you think about it that's all this is but there's a big difference between this & all those other so-so teen comedies… this is amazing. Mean girls really stands out from crowd as one of the best teen movies ever, there have been other good ones such as John Tucker Must Die which I enjoyed but if you ask someone to name a great teen film chances ...
...but the basics are true. Mean girls is a great mix of comedy & romance & is the perfect teen comedy. This is enjoyable to not only teens but to anyone who was ever at school as the basics about fitting in I'm sure everyone will have experienced in some point in their lives whether it be at school or at work. Mean girls also has a fantastic soundtrack that you can buy from Amazon for around £7.99 & it includes Missy Elliot Kelis Pink Samantha ...

...endorsment for it over here. Mean Girls is written by Tina Fey, who also writes SNL and stars as Miss Norberry. The subtle comedy here is brilliant and there are loads of laugh out loud moments too. I think everyone that there will be something everyone can identify with in this film. There are so many high school comedies kicking around but this is a class above the rest. It is great to see Lohan when she was about the acting instead of the growler ...

...and witty. I would put Mean Girls in the same catagory as these two. When it first came out I was actually working in Munich and nobody would pay the extortionate price of the english cinema to see it with me. So, I had to wait till i got back home and it was out on DVD. It was very much worth the wait. The plot in short is: Cady Heron moves back to the states after living in Africa and goes to school for the first time. She makes friends with ...
...Ignoring the end scenes Mean Girls is a brilliant feel good film and its not just for kids! It may be a tad embarrasing renting it out, but give it a try and you might just find yourself going out the next day and buying it. Just for prosperity my other 2 favourite quotes are: Student: Nice wig, Janis. What's it made of? Janis: Your mom's chest hair! and... Karen: If you're from Africa, why are you white? Gretchen: Oh my God, Karen, you can't ...

This film is written in tribute to all those mothers who have had the dreaded bitching from their daughters while they are in school. It has to be said that there is a bit of a bitch in all of us, somtimes well hidden, other times, well, let's just say more apparant. In this film there is a topic so frienquently addressed by mothers in this day and age. Bitching. As their little darlings head into the big big world of school they are immediately ...
...you fit in, great, but if you don't well then be prepared for a little bit of hell. The star, Lindsay Lohan, (Cady) plays a not so little girl who has been home schooled by her parents in Africa until her teens. She returned to the Big Cittied America with tribal warrior instincts and wild animal characteristics. It is always imprtant to be able to fit in and especially for young Cady. She befriends two of the school out-casts, Janice and Damien, ...

Mean Girls is one of my favourite trashy girly films! It is the story of Cady Herron (Lohan) a formerly home-schooled girl who is forced to go to a regular high school when he parents get university lecturing jobs in America having lived in Africa for a number of years. Cady has no idea of how to behave in this alien situation but luckily makes a couple of good friends, Janice and Damian, who help her through it. Janice hatches a plan for the meanest ...
...her friends and become a mean girl. Can she put things right and end the reign of the Plastics? This is a really funny film which takes off the usual high school stereotypes really well. Lindsay Lohan is actually quite charming as the clueless Cady - I think this was made before she went off the rails! Janice is also a great character and the interplay between her and Damian is really funny. Rachel McAdams is ice cold as the queen of the Plastics ...

I originally went to watch this film not expecting much, just another predictable regurgitation of the 'teen comedy' formula. I left happy that I hadn't let my cynicism get the better of me and proceeded to buy the DVD in short order. The premise of the film is fairly standard, a new girl, previously only homeschooled, joins a rough high school environment. She falls in with the outcasts but, due to her predictably stunning looks, quickly gets into ...
...bees of the school. The film then follows her attempts to destroy the plastics from within, charting her gradual change into the most plasticky plastic of all, leading up to a climactic falling out affecting the whole school. The thing about this film, and please forgive my use of cliche, is that it really does break the mould. There are still a few instances of the generic slapstick comedy moment, although these are, fortunately, these are few ...

...She’s pretty and intelligent. Your first day at school is always monumental, but even more so when you are 15 yrs old. Cady was brought up in Africa, as her parents worked there as zoologists. She was at home school; she learned a lot but obviously had not a clue that social skills are needed more than ever. Here first day at school was the same as in any other teen film. The same scenes were no one will let her sit near them in the cafeteria, and ...

Well I went to see this film not really expecting much from it, after all its just another teen film which to be honest I thought would probably be entertaining but not brilliant, how wrong I was. Both my friend and I walked out of the cinema last night thinking who much we were like these girls! It really does portray how nasty girls can be! I'm sure you all know girls who like talking about people behind there backs and I'm pretty sure not one ...
...whether its someone walking down the street or someone you know, I know I have! Well this film is about just that! It features the popular group of girls all schools have who think they're above everyone else and then the normal kids that are always on the end of their insults. This film is all about one group of friends trying to infiltrate the popular group ('Plastic's') and effectively bring them down. It involves hilarious jokes they play on ...
