Customer Reviews of Mean Girls (Special Collector's Edition)
Mean Girls hmm? I really can't review this item as I have not seen it. My wife loves it so for her I'll give it 3 stars.
curious
Does anyone else find it interesting that the protagonist in this movie is named Janis Ian, when a song by Janis Ian in the seventies named 'At Seventeen' follows this movie very closely?
They may be mean but this teen comedy is a very nice surprise...
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!
