Just One Of The Girls is a Teen Romantic Comedy that came out in 1993 and stars Corey Haim as a young teenager named Chris who is constantly being bullied by one of the guys in school and can't even get into school without being pushed around. So Chris decides to disguise himself as a girl only for his guise to be permanent at his school. Problems arise however when he falls in love with a girl who becomes friends with him in school. Chris eventually gets a shock when he finds out that the girl he became friends with as a girl is actually the sister of the guy who bullies him in school. So how far can Chris go as a girl at his school?Overall its a silly film about a guy who becomes a girl and it reminds me of She's The Man only gender swapped for example in She's The Man its a girl that disguises herself as a boy whereas in this film its a guy who becomes a girl.If you are into these films then do check it out.

I really like Corey Haim and will give any film he is in a go. This film was horrendously bad. Everything about it was awful. The script and direction was like a student production. Apart from Haim the acting was atrocious too. On top of that there was this really horrible, cheap-sounding score that was constantly in the background.The film just seemed to be a sequence of random scenes without any progress towards any kind of storyline (for the small part of it I could stand to watch).This film was so incredibly horrid that after about 15 minutes I just could not bear it and had to turn it off, and I generally have a high tolerance for what some people might deem 'bad' films.

Chris Calder (Corey Haim) is constantly bullied at school by a bully named Kurt. When he has to attend the same school as Kurt and his cronies, Chris decides to pull off a dangerous scheme by posing as a girl. Everybody ends up believing Chris is a girl. Chris becomes close with his crush Marie Stark (Nicole Eggert) Marie is Kurt's sister, and Kurt ends up falling for Chris as a girl, blissfully unaware that Chris is the bully they pick on. If you've seen She's the Man or Just One Of the Guys you'll know what to expect from this one. All things considered, it wasn't half-bad. It never takes itself too seriously, and Corey Haim should be commended for his committed performance in this one. He dresses up in women's clothing, and isn't afraid to humiliate himself. This movie is far from memorable, but one thing it's good for is some decent laughs. I couldn't help but chuckle at some of the silly things Corey Haim did in this movie. Nicole Eggert plays the token cheerleader very well. Haim & Eggert were together for a while in real life at one point as well. It's predictable, and it's your average "Guy gets the girl, overcomes the odds storyline" But considering Corey Haim's huge drug issues by the time this was released, it's a pretty decent effort. It's worth a watch on a rainy day if you can find it. You'll forget it as soon as it's done, though5.4/10

Well, here we have yet another role reversal movie. There were many worth watching, despite the tired plot of gender reversal. However, this one is not. In previous reviews, I think I've made my point about the general decline of enjoyment for Haim movies that followed the late 80s. This is one of them.'Just One of the Girls' is about a high school kid (Corey Haim) who tries to avoid his bullies by dressing up as a girl and attending another school. He joins the cheerleading squad and makes friends with fellow cheerleader, Marie (Nicole Eggert). Obviously, he can't keep up the charade for too much longer.I thought this movie was utter crap, and it wasn't even funny. But, judging by a majority of reviews, it looks like fans of Alanis Morrisette or teen sex queen, Nicole Eggert, are the only ones who'd want to watch this. If you're looking for a good Haim feature (or role switching comedy), look no further than 1989. This is about the point that Haim's career tanked.
