I feel like Not Another Teen Movie did a pretty good job at summarizing how ridiculous this movie is, but it is a 90's teen rom-com and I grew up in the 90's so there is a part of me that refuses to think this movie is completely terrible. A small part.
The bastard who married my first crush is recently dumped by the most popular girl in school. He makes a bet with his friend that he is so good at being cool that he can turn anyone girl into the next Taylor, his now ex. Beefy Paul Walker picks nerdy art girl Rachel Leigh "I'm famous for two movies" Cook and he has 6 weeks to make her not ugly. Cue hair cut, losing the glasses and plucking some eyebrows and bam....she is making everyone turn heads. But will she find out about the bet? I bet she will....I bet....she....will....
Cue 90's music that when you hear it instantly takes you back to a specific time and place and dozens of up and coming stars filling out the supporting roles; Anna Paquin, Dule Hill, Matthew Lillard, Elden Henson, Usher, Gabrielle Union, Clea DuVall, Lil' Kim, The Sherminator, Kieran Culkin, blink and you'll miss Milo Ventimiglia and a small cameo by the goddess that bastard married and this cast is somewhat stacked? She's All That is a film that so many females my age "love"...but understand they shouldn't.
This was the last film that Gene Siskel reviewed in print.....he gave it a thumbs up.
She's All That
"I feel just like Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman. You know, except for the whole hooker thing."
