They may be mean but this teen comedy is a very nice surprise..........2007-07-02
What I love so much about `Mean Girls' is that it stays hip and young yet is mature enough to reach further than the teen audience it was aiming at. The performances are surprisingly top notch, and the script is so tight that it's almost a wonder to me it didn't receive at least a screenplay nomination. It seriously is that good. The plot is different while still juggling the same popular girl/unpopular girl mentality of many high school movies. What makes `Mean Girls' so amazingly wonderful is the stellar chemistry between teen queens Lindsay Lohan and Rachel McAdams (although McAdams is in her thirties). They are so in tune with their characters and even more so with each other that they feed off one another brilliantly and capture the pure essence of the script.
Lohan plays Cady (pronounced Katy), a young home schooled girl who's spent most of her life in Africa and is now thrown into the very foreign world of high school. She's the immediate outcast due to her social retardation, but she's quickly swept up by fellow social outcasts Janis and Damian. Cady also catches the eye of Regina, queen of the school and leader of The Plastics, teen royalty as their so affectionately coined (emote sarcasm). Janis and Damian devise a plan to infiltrate The Plastics layers using Cady as a pawn, getting her to become one of them in order to expose them for the evil they truly are.
The entire cast is truly up to the challenge, not just scene stealers Lohan and McAdams. Lizzy Caplan and Daniel Franzese are hilarious as Janis and Damian while Tina Fey is affective as Cady's teacher Ms. Norbury. To me though, one of the best supporting characters is Gretchen Wieners, played by Lacey Chabert. She has some of the best one-liners in the film and Lacey works wonders with creating a likable air-head with layers unlike the average stereotypical dumb girl. Tim Meadows works as well as he can with his character but he's not given much to work with so he comes off a little forced at times as if he's trying to make a big statement knowing he won't have many opportunities and it doesn't quite work as well as he'd like it to. Amy Poehler on the other hand uses her few minutes to work her comedic brilliance and makes a lasting impression.
The story unfolds effortlessly, taking us from Cady's first encounter with The Plastics to her eventual acceptance to her betrayal and to her redemption with such grace and elegance that the viewer is never left confused or put off. Another nod to the script is the fact that it makes narration tolerable. Some movies can pull it off but as a whole the idea of narration can get irritable and unnecessary. Here though some of the best lines in the film are just the words running through Cady's head and Lohan's voice over is natural and entertaining. One of the greatest teen comedies since `Clueless' and in my humble opinion it's even better than it's classic predecessor, `Mean Girls' is a triumph and a film that launched the careers of two of our most bankable teen leading ladies!
Funny.......2007-05-20
I thought this was a funny and clever picture. It also has a good message. Rachel McAdams is great as a "plastic".
Dont be mean!.......2007-05-17
Most schools have mean girls! I take that back all schools have mean girls!
If you have ever watched this movie you would know that about all mean girls are the same!
Most mean girls are always PREPY, and have that DON'T MESS WITH ME ATTITUDE!
(And we all know that). In this movie there is a new girl from Africa, and her name is Katy when she goes to her new school for the first time, it was horrible on the first day! She had never been to a real school before, because she had always been home schooled. On her second day of school she made two new friends, their names were Janis and Damien. That day they had skipped class and Katy had seen the popular kids! (a.k.a.) the mean girls and she thought that they were perfect. Janis said that she hated them! One day at lunch Regina George stopped Katy, which Regina was one of the mean girls! She wanted Katy to sit with them. That day at lunch she sat with the popular girls! After she got done with lunch, Janis wanted her to tell her every thing, so she did. Janice wasn't mad! She told Katy to keep hanging out with them and find out all of their secrets and plans...so she did! And she found out a lot! One day Katy was sitting in math class and a guy walked in and sat right in front of her, and she thought that he was hott!!! Come to find out that was Regina's ex-boyfriend! Well after Regina found out she was mad, but she wanted to get her back! So when Katy asked Regina to ask Aaron out for her, she said that she would. That night there was a party at Aarons house, that was when Regina was suppose to ask Aaron out for Katy... but when she went up to do that, she started making-out with Aaron!!! So when Katy saw what Regina was doing she hated Regina! So then she went home and she starts thinking that she has to get back at her! So she starts gossiping about her! She calls Gretchen (one of the mean girls), and when she calls Gretchen she tells her that Regina called her something bad! And after she tells her that Regina called Gretchen and asked her to go out with her that night, but she said no because after what Katy said! After Gretchen hung up she called Karen (the other mean girl), and said that Regina called her a bad name! Then regain called Karen and asked he if she wanted to go out with her that night and she said no, because of what Gretchen said! So then she got mad! And she started eating a lot and started getting fatter! Then Katy gave her a fitness bar they made her gain weight, she told Regina that it makes you lose wait! So Regina put on a lot of wait!
Ok now you pretty much get the picture! But now do what do you think is going to happen?
Are Regina and Katy ever going to become friends? Are they going to keep fighting? Is every body going to hate Regina? Or is every one going to become friends again? This is a wonderful movie! I recommend this movie for any teenage girl!

Not What I thought.......2007-03-12
Mean Girls came off as a little documentary of a typical day in highschool.There are the goths,preps,artsy type,populars,jocks,band memebers,and smart supposedly 'nerds.'
It didn't live up to it's oh so high expectations that me and all the other girls in my classroom has dreamed of.It was a huge dissapointer!After watching it,I can only say that it was ok but nothing more.It was preety boring at some parts but all went well because of the drama and mostly hiarious parts of he movie.
I take it back that I said it was a huge dissapointer.It is in the middle.It was kind of boring but it was all worth it to see what would happen next.I give it three stars on a scale of one to six.
Did the CGI People Airbrush Lindsay Lohan's Freckles?.......2007-03-12
I don't have a reference point for the high-school politics that are captured in "Mean Girls". I went to an all boys Catholic school where disputes weren't settled through rumor or innuendo but dealt with the old fashioned way, after school manno-a-manno by the railroad tracks. Scripter Tina Fey makes many cogent observations about the cruel nature of high school one-upmanship. My theory is that Fey is trying to paralell the pimple-faced backstabbing with what later morphs into adult office politics. In my office disputes aren't settled in the cubicles but through bathroom gossip allowed to ferment into character assassination. Why I don't give "Mean Girls" the full five-star treatment is my trouble with Lindsay Lohan's character. Appealing as Lohan is here it was hard for me to believe that her home-schooled Cady could that easily transform into a duplicitous Plastic Girl. Rachel McAdams, however, is a real revelation here as the nasty Regina. In a performance of great tact and understatement (for a Queen Bee role) McAdams manages to engender a modicum of sympathy for the devil. Though I wouldn't consider "Mean Girls" a classic it is one of the rare teen films that transcend the genre. That's to say no matter how old you are we see a little of ourselves in the film's youthful characters.

The cutting wit of Tina Fey (the first female head writer for Saturday Night Live) brilliantly fuses pop culture and smart satire. Fey wrote Mean Girls, in which a formerly home-schooled girl named Cady (Lindsay Lohan, Freaky Friday) gets dropped into the sneaky, vicious world of the Plastics, three adolescent glamor-girls who dominate their public high school's social heirarchy. Cady first befriends a couple of art-punk outsiders who persuade her to infiltrate the Plastics and destroy them from within--but power corrupts, and Cady soon finds the glory of being a Plastic to be seductive. Mean Girls joins the ranks of Clueless, Bring It On, and Heathers, cunning movies that use the hormone-pressurized high school milieu to put the dark impulses of human nature--ambition, envy, lust, revenge--under a comic microscope. Fey manages to skewer everyone without forgetting the characters' hapless humanity; it's a dazzling and delightful balancing act. --Bret Fetzer

Mean girls.......2006-01-11
mean girls is d coolest movie EVER!!!!!!!!!! it so realistic and funny....... lol its just cool!!!
I want to watch it more!!.......2005-12-26
I just do! This movie rocks! Its really about this girl about in highschool,meeting these asewome girls at lunch.(Well,she thinks they are asewome) and they have a party,playdate,etc.but then they get really mean.It should only be "PG" also. There is no swearing,sexual content,or teen parting. Mabye it should just be "PG PARENTAL GUIDANCE SUCCEDED" SOME MATERIAL MAY NOT BE SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN:For some brief mild languange.
Cool or What.......2005-12-14
Mean Girls is absalutely class its really funny my favourite characters are Katie Haren and Regina George as they are so totally cool. It is one of my favourite movies as its really funny and beasty its like totally cool.
mean girls.......2005-08-15
i like the girls but i haven't watched it.
i hope it is good movie.
A Chick Flick.......2005-07-01
It's not really a real life story, but it has a good cat fight story line, It's also just kind of a movie to watch when your board. I do enjoy watching it though mostly that is stars Lindsay Lohan and now that I saw the Notebook, I also like Racheal McAdams in the movie too, over all it's a pretty good movie,I would recommend it to one of my close friends,but not really a boy!

They may be mean but this teen comedy is a very nice surprise..........2007-07-02
What I love so much about `Mean Girls' is that it stays hip and young yet is mature enough to reach further than the teen audience it was aiming at. The performances are surprisingly top notch, and the script is so tight that it's almost a wonder to me it didn't receive at least a screenplay nomination. It seriously is that good. The plot is different while still juggling the same popular girl/unpopular girl mentality of many high school movies. What makes `Mean Girls' so amazingly wonderful is the stellar chemistry between teen queens Lindsay Lohan and Rachel McAdams (although McAdams is in her thirties). They are so in tune with their characters and even more so with each other that they feed off one another brilliantly and capture the pure essence of the script.
Lohan plays Cady (pronounced Katy), a young home schooled girl who's spent most of her life in Africa and is now thrown into the very foreign world of high school. She's the immediate outcast due to her social retardation, but she's quickly swept up by fellow social outcasts Janis and Damian. Cady also catches the eye of Regina, queen of the school and leader of The Plastics, teen royalty as their so affectionately coined (emote sarcasm). Janis and Damian devise a plan to infiltrate The Plastics layers using Cady as a pawn, getting her to become one of them in order to expose them for the evil they truly are.
The entire cast is truly up to the challenge, not just scene stealers Lohan and McAdams. Lizzy Caplan and Daniel Franzese are hilarious as Janis and Damian while Tina Fey is affective as Cady's teacher Ms. Norbury. To me though, one of the best supporting characters is Gretchen Wieners, played by Lacey Chabert. She has some of the best one-liners in the film and Lacey works wonders with creating a likable air-head with layers unlike the average stereotypical dumb girl. Tim Meadows works as well as he can with his character but he's not given much to work with so he comes off a little forced at times as if he's trying to make a big statement knowing he won't have many opportunities and it doesn't quite work as well as he'd like it to. Amy Poehler on the other hand uses her few minutes to work her comedic brilliance and makes a lasting impression.
The story unfolds effortlessly, taking us from Cady's first encounter with The Plastics to her eventual acceptance to her betrayal and to her redemption with such grace and elegance that the viewer is never left confused or put off. Another nod to the script is the fact that it makes narration tolerable. Some movies can pull it off but as a whole the idea of narration can get irritable and unnecessary. Here though some of the best lines in the film are just the words running through Cady's head and Lohan's voice over is natural and entertaining. One of the greatest teen comedies since `Clueless' and in my humble opinion it's even better than it's classic predecessor, `Mean Girls' is a triumph and a film that launched the careers of two of our most bankable teen leading ladies!
Funny.......2007-05-20
I thought this was a funny and clever picture. It also has a good message. Rachel McAdams is great as a "plastic".
Dont be mean!.......2007-05-17
Most schools have mean girls! I take that back all schools have mean girls!
If you have ever watched this movie you would know that about all mean girls are the same!
Most mean girls are always PREPY, and have that DON'T MESS WITH ME ATTITUDE!
(And we all know that). In this movie there is a new girl from Africa, and her name is Katy when she goes to her new school for the first time, it was horrible on the first day! She had never been to a real school before, because she had always been home schooled. On her second day of school she made two new friends, their names were Janis and Damien. That day they had skipped class and Katy had seen the popular kids! (a.k.a.) the mean girls and she thought that they were perfect. Janis said that she hated them! One day at lunch Regina George stopped Katy, which Regina was one of the mean girls! She wanted Katy to sit with them. That day at lunch she sat with the popular girls! After she got done with lunch, Janis wanted her to tell her every thing, so she did. Janice wasn't mad! She told Katy to keep hanging out with them and find out all of their secrets and plans...so she did! And she found out a lot! One day Katy was sitting in math class and a guy walked in and sat right in front of her, and she thought that he was hott!!! Come to find out that was Regina's ex-boyfriend! Well after Regina found out she was mad, but she wanted to get her back! So when Katy asked Regina to ask Aaron out for her, she said that she would. That night there was a party at Aarons house, that was when Regina was suppose to ask Aaron out for Katy... but when she went up to do that, she started making-out with Aaron!!! So when Katy saw what Regina was doing she hated Regina! So then she went home and she starts thinking that she has to get back at her! So she starts gossiping about her! She calls Gretchen (one of the mean girls), and when she calls Gretchen she tells her that Regina called her something bad! And after she tells her that Regina called Gretchen and asked her to go out with her that night, but she said no because after what Katy said! After Gretchen hung up she called Karen (the other mean girl), and said that Regina called her a bad name! Then regain called Karen and asked he if she wanted to go out with her that night and she said no, because of what Gretchen said! So then she got mad! And she started eating a lot and started getting fatter! Then Katy gave her a fitness bar they made her gain weight, she told Regina that it makes you lose wait! So Regina put on a lot of wait!
Ok now you pretty much get the picture! But now do what do you think is going to happen?
Are Regina and Katy ever going to become friends? Are they going to keep fighting? Is every body going to hate Regina? Or is every one going to become friends again? This is a wonderful movie! I recommend this movie for any teenage girl!

Not What I thought.......2007-03-12
Mean Girls came off as a little documentary of a typical day in highschool.There are the goths,preps,artsy type,populars,jocks,band memebers,and smart supposedly 'nerds.'
It didn't live up to it's oh so high expectations that me and all the other girls in my classroom has dreamed of.It was a huge dissapointer!After watching it,I can only say that it was ok but nothing more.It was preety boring at some parts but all went well because of the drama and mostly hiarious parts of he movie.
I take it back that I said it was a huge dissapointer.It is in the middle.It was kind of boring but it was all worth it to see what would happen next.I give it three stars on a scale of one to six.
Did the CGI People Airbrush Lindsay Lohan's Freckles?.......2007-03-12
I don't have a reference point for the high-school politics that are captured in "Mean Girls". I went to an all boys Catholic school where disputes weren't settled through rumor or innuendo but dealt with the old fashioned way, after school manno-a-manno by the railroad tracks. Scripter Tina Fey makes many cogent observations about the cruel nature of high school one-upmanship. My theory is that Fey is trying to paralell the pimple-faced backstabbing with what later morphs into adult office politics. In my office disputes aren't settled in the cubicles but through bathroom gossip allowed to ferment into character assassination. Why I don't give "Mean Girls" the full five-star treatment is my trouble with Lindsay Lohan's character. Appealing as Lohan is here it was hard for me to believe that her home-schooled Cady could that easily transform into a duplicitous Plastic Girl. Rachel McAdams, however, is a real revelation here as the nasty Regina. In a performance of great tact and understatement (for a Queen Bee role) McAdams manages to engender a modicum of sympathy for the devil. Though I wouldn't consider "Mean Girls" a classic it is one of the rare teen films that transcend the genre. That's to say no matter how old you are we see a little of ourselves in the film's youthful characters.

They may be mean but this teen comedy is a very nice surprise..........2007-07-02
What I love so much about `Mean Girls' is that it stays hip and young yet is mature enough to reach further than the teen audience it was aiming at. The performances are surprisingly top notch, and the script is so tight that it's almost a wonder to me it didn't receive at least a screenplay nomination. It seriously is that good. The plot is different while still juggling the same popular girl/unpopular girl mentality of many high school movies. What makes `Mean Girls' so amazingly wonderful is the stellar chemistry between teen queens Lindsay Lohan and Rachel McAdams (although McAdams is in her thirties). They are so in tune with their characters and even more so with each other that they feed off one another brilliantly and capture the pure essence of the script.
Lohan plays Cady (pronounced Katy), a young home schooled girl who's spent most of her life in Africa and is now thrown into the very foreign world of high school. She's the immediate outcast due to her social retardation, but she's quickly swept up by fellow social outcasts Janis and Damian. Cady also catches the eye of Regina, queen of the school and leader of The Plastics, teen royalty as their so affectionately coined (emote sarcasm). Janis and Damian devise a plan to infiltrate The Plastics layers using Cady as a pawn, getting her to become one of them in order to expose them for the evil they truly are.
The entire cast is truly up to the challenge, not just scene stealers Lohan and McAdams.
