When Viola learns her soccer team is no more, she wants to join the boys team. The coach says no, so she dresses up like her brother Sebastian, and goes to his school for two weeks and pretends to be him. Her roommate Duke also plays soccer, and has a serious crush on a girl named Olivia. Olivia likes Sebastien, who is really Viola who really likes Duke. When Sebastian comes home, everything gets complicated!
There were "The Hot Chick", "Big Momma's House", "White Chicks", "Freaky Friday", and a few more of those similar movies which were, I guess, a success in the box office. This film is like the others but why wasn't this as successful as the films I've just mentioned? I was kind of disappointed that not as many people watched this film but I guess that's the way it is.
This straight out hilarious. I mean it. It's a very highly entertaining film with laugh out loud jokes and satirical humor. I guess it accomplishes the goal of being a comedy. Now for the plot, who cares if it's ludicrous? I mean, I bet people didn't mind anything from the movies I've mentioned earlier.
Amanda Bynes is so cute that puts a smile to your face. Yeah, she can't act like a guy? So what? She delivers the laughs and so do many other people in the ensemble cast. You also can't help but admit the plot is confusing. If you've read the plot line of this movie, you'll find out why.
This is as funny (and sometimes surprisingly serious) as many of the films I've mentioned above. The song choices, appropriately picked, are great for the teens who is watching his film. Sure, it's not groundbreaking from this kind of plot but it sure is a hell lot of fun, fast paced, hilarious comedy. This one sure hits it out of the ballpark!
