She's All That

Came quickly, and movie was perfect. Loved it.

This is an enjoyable film, with Rachel Leigh Cook looking just beautiful as a young girl (as opposed to the after-plastic-surgery version nowadays). The plot is yet another version on how the nerdy girl becomes the princess for the prom. I will just focus on the picture quality of the blu-ray, and I can say that it is absolutely fantastic. The picture looks brand-new and perfect, as if it was filmed in high-definition, which was probably not the case in 1999, but the Blu-ray picture is really outstanding. I had this film previously on HD at Amazon Instant Video, and that one looks really quite sharp, too, and in really nice high-definition, but the Blu-ray is superior-- just perfect. One of the nicest Blu-rays I own among several hundred, for picture quality. Recommend highly.

I just think that Freddie Prinzie, Jr.(Zach) is a very good actor and that she played a very good part.Rachel Cook played the part of Laney. Zach makes a bet that he can change any girl.. While being dumped by his girlfriend who goes out with a commercial guy. Zach invites Laney to go the beach with him. She plays volleyball with them at the beach. Then Zach's friend invites her to the party. She accepts the invitation. Laney's dad cleans out the pool for Zach's family. While Zach and his sister are getting Laney to get her ready for a party.She comes down the stairs with a beautiful dress. Then Zach's old girlfriend spills a drink on Laney's dress. Laney runs out and Zach follows her. Zach's friend tell Laney about the bet about making any girl prom queen. Zach told that her that was when he didn't have feelings for her. Zach's friend asks Laney to the prom. She doesn't accept but then he comes to her house and she goes with him. In the meantime, Zach's old girlfriend comes crying to Zach to take her to the prom because she just got dumped by her new boyfriend. Instead he takes his sister. Zach's friend was telling the guys in the restroom how he was going to score with Laney in the hotel room that he has planned for them. Well, Laney's friend over hear all the bragging. Laney's friend tells Zach and Zach is checking all the hotel rooms where he thinks they may be staying. Then she gets home and Zach is standing in the living room. Her father tells her to go out on the patio. He goes on the patio and the father puts lights all around it. And they slow dance to the music and he kisses her.

Great movie from the 80's i recommend it

This movie is a lot of fun, somewhat predictable but what teen movies aren't? Laney Boggs dresses badly, doesn't use make-up, doesn't fit in with any of the cool people, and is very unsociable and unapproachable. So due to a bet with a friend, Zack Siler must not only get her to go to the prom with him, he has to help her win prom queen without her knowing it. All because his hot girlfriend dumped him and his (Mr good looking/Mr popular) status on campus is taking a real hit and he's out to salvage his image. At first, Laney will not give Zack the time of day, and figures he must be up to something because they have nothing in common, she actually asks him at one point, is this some kind of geek outreach program. Zack is completely determined to win the bet and presses on with his quest. This movie never gets boring and is very funny and cute, fits in real well for young or older people, it's good!

Hey, it's The Sunnydale chick....if you've been keeping tabs on my reviews; sorry this one is SO late! I was writing a lot of Illyria stories from Angel (they'll also go with my wicked cool Halloween costume that I just planned, I always plan this holiday early...and I got a little behind) I had watched this with my friends at the beginning of the month, (I hadn't seen it in forever and I forgot how fun it was. 1st off I want to g e t to the spoof from Not Another Teen movie, because for the most part that was the best part(and if you've wondering; no I do not mean the American Pie connection with it; I didn't really care for that) No the 1st thing I mean is her movie names are funny, Janie Briggs is the spoof name, and Laney Boggs is the one in the Real movie...okay that's weird.....so I just switched the names around. I also think it's funny when they describe her, oh not Laney Boggs (remember I switch the names around!) She's got glasses and a ponytail, and she's got paint on her over_all's come on! Me and my friends all thought that was really funny! Okay enough with the spoof, here's the Real movie...1st and even if this sounds cliche' I was the Weird Chick in my school. I love (and still do) monsters, and bad (and good scary movies (Vampire ones like Lost Boys) and Bad Boys like my husband and Corey Feldman when other girls were into...well whatever popular girls were into during Our Grunge Era, Personally I didn't really care, cause I don't like those kind of people..I like what I like and I like hanging out with the outcast crowd cause were all about being ourselves. That's one of the main reasons I like this movie so much. Because it also shows that you can be true to yourself. The funny thing is I actually do like the main popular chick (but she reminds me of Cordelia on Buffy) The only time I don't is when she's mean to Janie (again name switch) Cause Oh! You're having a bad night so you're gonna take it out on her when she's having fun? (That's why I like Cordelia who is a nice person turns out, but not Popular people) and my guy likes to cheer me up if I'm having a bad day by reminding me of something fun we did...like a fun memory or a song that cheers you up and says Remember We or you were having fun, try it...it works) and I like the dance scene, even though it's heavily choreographed (surprisingly I like dances, but not all in a Carrie way like you'd think, cause lately in some other stories I wrote some Casablanca like Dance scenes with the song Dream a little dream in it (I love that song it reminds me of Happy Summers I had.) I didn't care much for that guy who gets The Foghorn alarm, which was pretty great by the way...but I did think it was also pretty funny how close that scene was to the one with the Green Goblins son from Spider Man with Toby McGuire in the 1st movie. I loved the ending and how it mirrored the ending of Twilight and Hey it took place at Sunnydale High and Buffy was there...that was pretty cool!

A great movie along the lines of Never Been Kissed, Grease, and others like them, but actually better. A shy, introverted geek is targeted by a jock when a bet is made that he can make her prom queen just by being her boyfriend. I'm sure I'm not alone in saying that Laney was perfect before the makeover. And I was really glad that she, regardless of the change of looks, stayed the same in personality. That's one of the things I hated about Grease, that the main female had to come to terms with the fact that she had to change who she was fundamentally, to be able to be with a guy, who couldn't change because of peer pressure. There's also some social commentary weaved into the movie about people being tools of institutional art, being cast into a light that's not your own, among other things. Rachel Leigh Cook shines, as she usually does. Definitely recommended.

Excellent movie

Très belle petite histoire romantique des années 90'

À mi-chemin entre un film de teen-agers et un grand classique du cinéma américain ! Avec un rôle taillé à sa mesure, Freddy Prinze Jr. se révèle et transperce l’écran, laissant présager le début d’une carrière à la Clint Eastwood! Quant à Rachael Leigh Cook, sur un ton très juste, tout en finesse digne de « My Fair Lady », celle-ci interprète à merveille le rôle de la jeune fille discrète et réfléchie qui va petit à petit s’ouvrir aux autres, prenant ainsi le risque de vivre. Une performance exceptionnelle jamais vue au cinéma depuis Audrey Hepburn. Le légendaire Usher rejoint également ce casting de haut vol avec brio et les chorégraphies du film vous donneront le goût de la danse. Un film pop-corn, certes, mais bon pour le moral et pour les neurones, à voir à tout âge comme une belle leçon de vie!

one of my favourite movies

Soy fan de este clásico noventero y ahora me agrada mucho que exista en BluRay. La calidad es excelente, y lo mejor que en los extras trae el video de Kiss Me, otro de mis favoritos que siempre me recuerda a esta cinta que no me canso de ver.

netter Film - sehr unterhaltsam
