i have nothing to do before go out one night so i do not want to watch anything too heavy and i pick the perfect film . this must have be a gift to barrymore from someone she sleep with and the director raja gosnell have make nothing but silly crap and the writing on this one be just atrocious . in what high school can you register without a parent present and no proof of age or former schooling . they let kid all come to the prom with no shirt and in skin tight leotard and as short and one girl be dress a eve wear only fig leaf . she announce that she 25 and her brother be 23 but there be no reprisal from the school and parent or lawsuit of any kind against the newspaper for fraud or spying . the newspaper bos want to catch the teacher in an underage sex scandal but doesn not realize the teacher be come on to a 25 year old so any case would be entrapment . they allow a camera in and record people private conversation with under age kid . i wonder if i hire my young sister to go back to hs with a camera on her and film under age girl for my personnel use i would not get in some kind of trouble . nahhhh no problem . didn not she have to take gym or go to the bathroom at some point . the secondary character in this be like cardboard cutout of what high school student be think to be and everybody be a stereotype . jessica alba be just embarrassingly bad in this mugging for the camera at every chance . in what world do the parent not get suspicious when their uber geeky daughter be miraculously ask out by the school stud to the prom . and they do not ask the guy inside to meet him like every other parent in history . if some guy in my school or any other school for that matter have con my sister and thrown egg at her in her prom dress he would have be in a body cast for the rest of his life . this movie be so contrived and predictable it nauseate and and why at the end be everybody ( the alpo girl include ) cheer for this chick when two day before they hat her . dumb and dumb and dumb .
