be this movie for real . that all i could think the first time i saw this film . the story follow the rancho carne toros cheerlead team and their captain torrance ( kirstin dunst ) a they make their way through the tumultuous world of cheerlead . the toros be champion cheerleader and but soon after be name captain and torrance discovers that their team have actually be steal cheer from a poor and inner city school . poor tor be tear . she want her team to win and but will she be able to do it without cheat . the plot isn not a bad idea and really . it just your basic sport movie ( although there be debate about whether cheering be a sport . ) however and the aspect that really bring the movie down be the seriousness that be lay on extra thick in nearly every scene . for example and when try to convince a skeptical newcomer to join the team and torrance say with a cheesy grin and we work hard and we have fun and and we win national championship . she sound like an infomercial for the wonderful world of cheer . to make matter even more confusing and the ultra seriousness be alternate with joke and situation that blatantly make fun of cheer and reinforce the blond and bimbo cheerleader stereotype . i really can not figure out if theyre try to make cheerlead the hero or the butt of the joke . plus and kirstin dunst be so annoying a the self center and cheer obsess and pmsing torrance that i really do not think i will voluntarily see another one of her movie for quite some time .
