Mean Girls

I really thought Mean Girls (starring Lindsay Lohan and Rachel McAdams) would be one of those shitty teen girl movies. I was half right, it is a teen girl movie, but it's not bad at all.

Tina Fey, of Saturday Night Live fame, wrote the screenplay for Mean Girls, adapted from the book "Queen Bees and Wannabes" by Rosalind Wiseman. A few other famous Saturday Night Live cast members join Tina Fey on screen, including Tim Meadows, Ana Gasteyer, and Amy Poehler. Lorne Michaels, producer of Saturday Night Live, also producers the movie. With so many SNL alumni, it is easy to understand why Mean Girls is not quite the girl movie I expected.

Mean Girls is a great high school comedy, and at the same time it really does a good job of portraying how much the popular high school girls can be a bitch to everyone else. Mean Girls will provide you with many laughs while providing a glimpse into what high school life is like now-a-days. And of course, there's a moral to this story at the end.
