I hope that this movie is loosely based on the novel, because this movie is just so bad that I can't imagine a book being as awful. Full of trite clichés and inane dialogue, this movie insults the audience, by continuing to force on us such an unbelievable story. Swain's character, (a role in which she is hideously misscast,) and her unending moronic voice-overs assume that the world just falls into line for infatuated teenage girls. The movie is written so poorly that it is often difficult to discern if scenes are actually occurring or if they are a product of the protagonist's imagination. Our hero gets all the sex her horny eighteen-year-old body can handle. And yet the movie refuses to end sending even more outrageousness our way. The final straw is the revelation that the hard-nosed rival of Swain (played by Tara Reid) is gay, and that she has had a crush on Swain all along. Hooray. I can't say how strongly I wish I had just pressed stop at the first scent of turkey, because the hour and a half that followed is time I can never get back.
