Description: Cady Heron (Lindsay
Lohan) is a hit with The Plastics, the A-list girl clique at her new school
until she makes the mistake of falling for Aaron (Jonathan Bennett), the
ex-boyfriend of alpha Plastic Regina George (Rachel McAdams).
Review: “Mean Girls” is the ultimate high school survival guide that remains
razor sharo more than twenty years later.
Casy Heron has lived in Africa
with her parents and has always been home schooled. She has never experiences
life at an actual high school, until they move back to America. Here she learns
that there are several different cliques in high-school. The most important
one: The Plastics, led by Regina George.
Tina Fey’s script transforms
the teen genre into a clever satire full of iconic one-liners that have become
part of our collective memory.
Lindsay Lohan is at her best
as the naïve Cady, but Rachel McAdams steals the show as the terrifying Regina
George. The film brilliantly (and painfully) exposes the social hierarchy and
the ‘girls’ world without even losing its humor. It is colorful, witty and surprisingly
relatable for anyone who has survived high school.
One of the better teen
comedies of the 00s.
