Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
I never realized how grossly misogynistic this movie was until I re-watched it as an adult in 2017.
this movie is another high school movie which is with prom, stupid bet, geeks. so Laney she's a student of art. likes to paint and etc. and Zack is playing football. after Zack got dump from Taylor Zack having a bet with his friend that he's gonna make Laney like him. so the story goes on they having a good time he also helped her brother to stand up against bullies.he also got good grade so he can go to good university or college. and in the end she finds out it's a bet but he convince her he did this for a bet in the beginning but now he really likes her. happy end !!! my favorite moment is the reaction of her face in the graduation when kiss me song on background. also likes the song kiss me by sixpence none the richer.
"She's All That" (1999) is a school dramedy/romance flick -- more drama than comedy -- about a pretty, but outcast, mousy girl (Rachael Leigh Cook) who suddenly has a couple of popular guys interested in taking her to the prom (Freddie Prinze Jr. and Paul Walker). Their motivations are questionable and it stirs up the hot vixen of the school (Jodi Lyn O'Keefe). Matthew Lillard, Anna Paquin and Lil Kim are also featured.The cast is great and this is a worthy story about a social outcast coming out of hiding, so to speak. But the potential depth of the plot needed fleshed-out more and the film's just too sentimental for my tastes -- numerous moments where characters share deep feelings, etc. Don't get me wrong, I can get into some share-your-feelings type scenes, but I didn't care enough about the characters here to make it meaningful or engrossing.Still, the message is good and the main cast members are superb. Plus there's no raunch, which is refreshing. Those who enjoy sentimentality will appreciate it more than I did.The film runs 95 minutes and was shot in the greater Los Angeles area (Redondo Beach, Malibu, Torrance and Cerritos).GRADE: C+ or B-
As a fan of all those "late 90's teenage predictable chick-flicks," I thought this movie was pretty good. Compared to others in the same category however, it's definitely not the strongest. The story is predictable: the popular guy makes a bet claiming that he'll be able to make the school's biggest loner/outcast the prom queen. And, of course, by the end they fall for one another. Not a big surprise, but the story is still really fun to follow. With many witty one- liners, there were many laughable moments. However, as a hopeless romantic, my favorite part is the one where Zach and Laney have a close conversation concerning her late mother. I thought Freddie Prinze Jr. and Rachel Leigh Cook worked really well together. The movie got REALLY cheesy at certain parts, not because of the lines (which also occasionally happened), but because of the character delivery. However, I never thought either of the leads overdid it. They had good chemistry and I enjoyed watching the two of them. Although it's not the best film of this sort that I've seen, I still enjoyed it and I'm glad I finally watched it. I would recommend it if you're having a girls night or are just in the mood for a 90's film.
