They're Sexy! They're Cool! They're Stereotypical!

Rating: 5/10 (13 June 2003)

For a movie that I figured will be trying to dismiss the stereotypical view of Cheerleaders, the starting chant didn't give it a good start...
I'm Sexy/I'm Cute/I'm Popular to Boot...
That chant just gets worse from there. They play quite heavily on the stereotypes in the beginning and don't really try hard enough to make up for it at the end, I don't consider the cheerleaders to be serious athletes, so that's one mark against the film.
As a whole, the film was semi-entertaining. It was a nice comedy that had a decent plot. Kirsten Dunst played a strong lead and most of the supporting cast were OK. Though 2 of the main cheerleaders (the blonde and the Asian, names escape me) were downright annoying.
Too sum up, a nice movie that had too many stereotypes for my tastes, worth a look if you're interested in any way with Cheerleaders.

5/10
