Basically a movie for teens...

Rating: 7/10 (7 July 2001)

I rented "Bring It On" because I heard it detailed a relationship between two male cheerleaders. Being a gay man, this plotline was of interest to me. Unfortunately, this wasn't true. One of the male cheerleaders (the charming and handsome Huntley Ritter) IS gay, but he only serves as the token gay character.
I was disturbed by the characters' liberal use of the words "fag" and "dyke." While it was generally the idiot football players who uttered these words, this wasn't always the case. I realize many teens use these words regularly, but I don't see why they had to be repeated over and over.
