Better Than Expected

Rating: Null/10 (17 January 2001)

I went to see this as the movie I had planned to see was sold out. It seemed the pick of a bad bunch of School Holiday movie trash.
It seemed we picked right.
The opening scene/dream sequence is hysterical and worth the price of entry alone, and whilst the cheerleading is taken seriously - it is not taken TOO seriously.
The closing credit sequence to Toni Basil's Mickey is executed firmly with tongue in cheek and continues the laughter.
This movie isn't going to be written in as a classic, but the opening scene should be, the middle of the movie is harmless fun, and the closing credits sequence makes you laugh.
Enjoy it, but don't compare it to "great films of our time" or expect life-altering revelations. An amusing way to pass some time.
