Mean Girls

"You wanna go to Taco Bell?" LMFAO. I say this all the time so discreetly that no one ever gets it and I just smile.

"She kept knocking on my door, she was high. She kept calling me Jake Gyllenhaal. I said just call me your Prince of Persia."

 

Wait, wrong movie?

 

Predictable (except for the bus thing) but really funny.

 

8/10

Saw it again last night and it is perpetually funny. Almost everyline in the movie is quotable and the one-liners are just amazing. 'It's like I have ESPN or something.'

Tina Fey is really witty.

Ooof... This is absolutely not good

Watched this yesterday. Probably the only modern movie where I know there's an actual date to watch it on, Mean Girls is a spectacular modern comedy. It's consistently hilarious thanks to Tina Fey's tight script and the ensemble that features many talented actors who became much more famous later on their life. Of special mention is Rachel McAdams, whose Regina George might be the most iconic teen movie villain. One aspect of Mean Girls that is rarely talked about is the direction, which is at points invisible but also subtly influences the jokes through weird camera angles or knowing just how long to hold a shot. A couple of the funniest jokes in the movies are just belated reaction shots from characters in the background. Mean Girls is just a really great comedy with loads of wit. It's a shame that it's the last great film in the teen high school comedy subgenre, but hey, what a way to go out. A-

To this day, I don't think I have seen an audience loose it as much as when the bus came out of nowhere and hit Rachel McAdams when I first saw this back in the day.
