This film is effing hilarious. Christopher Guest-esque.


Seriously. It's tonally so odd - the sound/music design is totally off-centre, and there is some seriously questionable editing. But the performances are generally hilarious, and it's actually quite a good script in parts. Like American Beauty meets Election meets Legally Blonde.

What the hell's wrong with expressing yourself?

It's a much more subtle movie than some people seem to assume. If you take the boyfriend who can't eat without getting food on his face, for instance, he's a funny Texas stereotype, _and_ he's a genuinely nice guy, _and_ he doesn't deserve to get the girl. I bet the people who think this movie is dumb would think Election is dumb too.
