Yeah, something I always try to do is not take myself so seriously that I can't laugh at myself, or see a silly movie every now and then. The thing that makes most teen-targeted movies seem ridiculous is that they're sappy and you're supposed to be touched; this one shows kids being sappy and you're supposed to laugh at them. The makers of the movie seemed to be having fun with it, and the whole thing was tongue in cheeck without being campy, either. Cute girls, a VERY cute guy, one borderline brilliant scene (if you've seen the movie, the one in the restroom, talking "about a woman who was in this situation before,"... nearly made me spit icee on the guy sitting in front of me,) the whole thing was entertaining and good fun. (Wow, was that the world's first run-on sentence fragment paragraph? Bring on the militant grammarians.)
Though the filmmakers apparently weren't on target with their quoting cheerleading regulations. :-)
