Advantages: very amusing chick-flick Disadvantages: may not amuse all girls.
...Meanwhile, over in the mean corner, you see Queen Bee Regina George pulling vunerable Cady by her side to stop her from stealing any of her PERFECT limelight.Regina is a spoilt, quite spiteful young woman who doesnt turn down the chance to show off anything about herself.
I watched this movie and expierienced both amusement and sadness as I watched Cady's roller-coaster time with The Plastics, a mean little popular, demanding gang. I felt sorry ...

Advantages: A good comedy suitable for teenagers Disadvantages: Wouldnt appeal to other age groups or even males
I watched this film with a couple of films and it is definatly a chick flick. I wouldnt reccomend it to all age groups, just to teenagers in perticular as it reminds them of what school is like especially in america. It is a comedy and it is a film you would never get bored of. The film is about a new girl who has moved to america starting a secondry school. At the school there is a typical group of plastics who are the popular girls, and the new ... ...her other groups of friends to get there own back on them. But of course nothing works out as its a typical comedy. There is alot of good acting in the film, especially by lindsy lohan who is the main character. There is also singing in the film from what the actress is best at. There are not many special effects in the film, as it is just a standard family life film and shows real reality. It compares to similar films such as bridget jones diary, ...

Advantages: shows what high school is really like Disadvantages: would be better a bit more meaner. lol
I first watched mean girls when i was given it as a present for christmas. I had never really been very interested and wasnet eager to watch it. So one night when i was bored i watched the film, and though it was quite good.
It is about a 15 year old teenager, cady Heron ( linsdey lohan) who was raised in the african bush country with her zoologist parents. She then attends an American high school for the first time in her whole life , and quickly ... ...and scary as the jungle which she has currently left behind, for a new life in schooling. When the highschool's so called 'queen bee' Regina (Rachel McAdams) takes an interest into the new student from africa , outsider, and Regins' main enemy Janis (Lizzy Caplan) urges Cady to become friends with Regina's group called the 'Plastics', so that the 'Queen' can be brought down from her high school throne once and for all. Things become more complicated ...

Quick review of Mean Girls (DVD)
If you think that Mean Girls is just another teenage movie, then you are wrongly mistaken. It's about a new girl at an American high school, who had previously been home-schooled in Africa. Shortly after moving to her new school, she is accepted into a group of 3 girls known as "The Plastics". At first it is only a way to expose them and make fun of, but gradually she turns into one of The Plastics, leaving behind her kind traits.
This film is packed full of great laughs and performances by the actors/ actresses. There are also some great special features on the film, which are well worth watching. ...

Quick review of Mean Girls (DVD)
I absolutely loved this film it is one of the best chick flicks i have seen, i had to watch it twice in a row when it came out, i loved it, it is like what happens in real day to day life with girls in high school, you get the new kid, who hangs with the not so popular people then end up hanging with the popular kids and turns in to one.... It is a great film to watch and have a laugh with, there are comedy moments in the film and lindsay lohan is brilliant in this film. I would reccommend this film to watch!! Its the sort of film you can watch over and over again. ...

Advantages: funny, good to watch Disadvantages: steriotypical teen movie
I am an average Teen Girl and this is my favourite film!
I reccomend this to anyone that likes chick flick films and comedies.
The Film is about the change of an innocent home schooled teenage girl to a...well...bitch! Her first day at school is at high school and it is alot different than what she thought, there are popularity groups and loud students, a steriotypical american school. It is much like the crazy african jungle in which she came ... ...poular girl group in school called 'the plastics' and turns into one of them, a bitch. They are pretty, every boy wants to go on a date with them and they have their own set of rules, But life doesnt seem so good being in the plastics. You have to worry about your clothes, your boyfriend, your make-up and if your friends are bitching about you!
There is alot of great comedy throughout the film.
The film stars the famous actress Lindsay Lohan.

Advantages: no brain power needed to understand plot Disadvantages: yet another teen flick - clueless anyone
I had some free preview tickets for this film. It’s not the sort of film I would pay to see.
I wasn’t expecting much but I was pleasantly suppressed.
It's based on a baest selling book by Rosalind Wiseman - Queen Bees & Wanabes: helping your daughter survive cliques, gossip, boyfriends & other realities of adolescence. The adaptation was done by Tina Fey (Saturday night live)
The plot
It’s the classic tale of the new girl trying to fit in to ... ...that the 15 year old Cady Heron it not just from out of town but out of africa. She was home schooled while traveling with her zoologist parents in africa.
She makes friends with two of the "out crowd" Damian and Janis. Then the popular girls “the Plastics” let her join their group she is hesitant, afraid of loosing her other friends. But Janis wants her to pretend to like them to learn their secrets & plot their downfall.
Regina the leader, Gretchen ...

Quick review of Mean Girls (DVD)
Definately one of Lindsey Lohan's best films, to b fair she hasn't exactly made amazing films, bit I am a fan of hers. A young shy home-schooled girl from Africa moves to America & starts high school to be befriended by an over feminate gay guy & the wierd girl who noone talks to & make her infiltrate the "Plastics" led by queen B, Regina George, every girl wants to be her & every guy wants her. Lohan soon destroys Regina & takes her crown all with the help of her new friends. But she never realised how bad it really is to be Regina George. Brilliant Teen Comedy. ...

...until the day I saw mean girls!
i had originaly seen it in the cinema and thought it would be one of those movies where all the best bits were shown in the trailer and the rest of the movie was just the scenes that fills in the gaps for you so you understand the story line....but alas i was pleasantly surprised.
It is a very cleaverly made film which appeals to all age groups and sexes. my boyfriend even enjoyed watching it (no doubt because it ... ...The characters have all distinctive features about them and its funy to see the differences in them all. Although they may be seen as the "dumb blonde" or the plastic barbies, they are a lot more complex and clever than youd expect them to be, which is partly a key factor behind the success of the story line.
its about a teenage girl (lindsay lohan) who has never been exposed to a western culture before. she had grown up in africa all her life, ...

Quick review of Mean Girls (DVD)
I bought this film thinking that it was going to be a typical trashy teen ''comedy.'' with a predictable story line- ugly girl goes to school, girl goes under transformation, girl becomes hot and popular, girl meets popular guy, guy falls in love with girl, and happy ever after!- and to my surprise this film was not like that in the slightest!! Despite the pure cheesiness of it all and the tongue-in-cheek quotes ( ie That is so fetch!) Mean Girls attcks the realities behind the lives of high school girls, delving into the harsh world that is 'girl world.' A very refreshing film that has a good moral and amazing storyline. I highly recommend this film as it really, really will surprise you (in a good way of course!) ...

Lindsay Lohan returns with this excellent film, and i was ecstatic about getting this movie out of Blockbusters. Not only is Lindsay amazing in this movie but this movie has some serious bitching in it!! A must see film if you love chick flicks.
Lindsay plays Cady Heron who has been living in the jungle in Africa from when she was born up until now.

As she arrives at school, it is clear to Cady that she has arrived at a war zone where everyone is stereotyped in to a group i.e. the plastics, art freaks, JV jocks and so on. Cady's first day at school is quite eventful as no -one seems to like her and ends up pouring coffee all down the front of her form tutors front!! On Cadys second day she is befriended by gothic art freak Janis and her camp friend Damien. As school progresses she ...

Mean girls is a film for all you really girly girls out there.it shows how anybody can go from having nothing to gaining new friend,being part of a group,get into trouble,fall in love,fall out with their friends,fight and seek revenge.

...school, and a group of mean girls who are famous school-wide and 'cool'. They pick on the new girl in a subtle way and she tries to get her own back.
It includes some good gags which make it a fun film for girls and some boys aged 10-15. A lot of the phrases and words used are extremely catchy, including "Coolness!" and "Hey, loser!"
My favourite part was when the new girl tries to get one of the mean girls' boyfriends to catch her in the act of ... ...were fairly unrealistic, but films aren't real are they? Anyway, that just makes it more funny and keeps you interested. As a result of good casting and clever storylines, it's a film you can see again without getting too bored. The lead role is played by Lindsay Lohan of Freaky Friday and Parent Trap. She's very convincing as she goes from innocent new girl to tarty plastic popular chick. My favourite character is Regina Woods, played by Rachel ...
