Editorial Review:
Amazon.com
A promising comedy that goes awry all too early, But I'm a Cheerleader concerns a misunderstood high school kid (Natasha Lyonne) whose parents send her to a harsh, homosexual-rehabilitation camp despite a lack of evidence that she's gay. Ruled with an iron fist by a fascist counselor (Cathy Moriarty), the clinic only drives Lyonne's character toward an attraction to a rebellious tomboy (Clea DuVall), though screenwriter Brian Wayne Peterson and director Jamie Babbit are curiously intent on keeping the two apart and depriving the audience of other comic possibilities. Meanwhile, hoary clichés abound: prancing boys, butch gays, lipstick lesbians. Despite a fine cast full of young talent, and cameo appearances by Julie Delpy and RuPaul Charles, this attempt to skewer a present-day trend in "curing" homosexuals of their sexual preferences is flattened by stereotypes and unimaginative thinking. --Tom Keogh

Product Description

This candy-box colored comedy of sexual discovery chronicles the life of Megan (Natasha Lyonne), a typical teenager coming of age in anything but a typical fashion. Megan's super normal suburban existence is filled with friends, pom-poms and rah-rah enthusiasm until her straight-laced parents (Mink Stole and Bud Cort) suspect that their "little poodle" may, in fact be showing deviant tendencies. In a complete panic, Megan's parents elicit the help of her friends and the guidance of a rehabilitation camp to mount an all-out intervention. Mike (an out-of-drag RuPaul Charles), a True Directions counselor, leads the intervention and before Megan can pack her pom-poms she is whisked off to learn how to be a perfect woman.

True Directions is run under the strict, all-seeing eyes of the sadistic Mary (Cathy Moriarty). Megan dutifully gets with the deprogramming so she can quickly return to her life of boyfriends, football games, and her absolute favorite activity - cheerleading. Everything seems perfect, but the fun begins when her hormones start to rage, and her friends and family wonder where she'll find love!

5 out of 5 stars It has... rue paul charles... that alone should be worth buying........2007-06-27

Its cliche, silly, and considering this is supposedly about teens most looked rather old, especially megan. but all that aside, this movie owns.
yes, yes it owns. It's hilariously funny, and even has Bull the bailiff guy from night court in it... O and a cameo from Dante Basco. Basco is the guy who played rufio in the movie hook! o c'mon, rufio making out with guys, now didnt see that one coming. but this movie is hilarious. this is a must own for anyone who isnt scared of a few man kisses, or non-porn lesbian scenes.

5 out of 5 stars Hilarious, Top Notch, Crazy Fun Movie!.......2007-05-30

What a fun movie to watch with a bunch of friends. If you are gay-friendly then this movie will have you LOL and ROTFL! Natasha Lyonne is a naive cheerleader who lusts after other cheerleaders but is trying to fight her inner queer. From a pain junkie in the next bed to the local queer bar they find, every scene keeps you wanting to see more.

4 out of 5 stars One of the greatest gay movies of all time.......2007-05-14

But I'm a Cheerleader puts every gay person's coming out experience in a fun playful light. The romantic ending was kind of out of place, but the movie as a whole is great and entertaining. A must see!

5 out of 5 stars It's the best gay movie i've watched so far.......2007-05-12

It's a great show.Won't get sick of it..it's not dat i'm gay...just that i enjoy watchin gay movies. at times they're really versatile actresses. so wanna catch a good show....dis can be one of those!

1 out of 5 stars DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY..........2007-03-23

this movie is from a homophobic straight point of view or wriiten by an immature individual. it is dry the whole way thru and tasteless. i could not finish without vomitting. from the DVD player to the trash it went. if it were sold for a cent it would not be worth it!
