The perfect box set

Rating: 8/10 (6 July 2013)

If you liked "Mean Girls," "Easy A" and especially "Bring It On," here is the perfect final movie for that box set you've been building of smart, very well-written, insightful young adult films. Possibly - barely - just a step below the rest in quality because each one had already set the bar so high, but very equal to their attempts to make intelligent comedies in a day when dumb, tone-deaf, and formulaic all rule at the box office. Kendrick is charming and sharp, Wilson manages to wring one more funny variation on her standard character, and Astin more than holds his own as leading man among all the strong women surrounding him. Looking forward to seeing what each of the people involved does next.
