Hey folks, Harry here... Now we've all had those experiences where we wound up with a mouth full of cock and succulent conch. This is the film about that first time it happened in like High School. Sniffle, it really brings back memories!

She IS the Man

I know what you're thinking. I?m really god damn bored, so I guess I?ll read a review about that Amanda Bynes movie on AICN. Well, friends, you?ve come to the right place.

First and foremost, for those of you that don?t care about the details, this movie is very funny. I recommend that you see this movie in the theater this weekend. I especially recommend that you see it at about 8pm with all of the 13-17 year old girls that also want to see it. Like Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, that we heard so much about a few months ago, this is an audience movie. The only difference is that this movie?s target audience happens to be 13-17 year old girls. I highly recommend it, yada yada yada. Go to the movie theater two hours early (before the 10 o?clock showing of V for Vendetta, of course), and see this movie. It is very funny, etc.

Now, onto the details. First, the good. This movie is very clever. The screenwriters understand that the entire plot is fairly cliché and the characters are mostly prewritten stereotypes, so they keep plot and character development to a minimum. They spend a minute or two here and there to show that the jock is actually sensitive, blah blah blah etc. Basically, they?re giving you a break from laughing. The rest of the movie is all about setting up and executing jokes. It is very good at keeping the small laughs rolling, and building up to really big laughs. The target audience, like many of us, has no attention span. All of the jokes are, at most, one-two punches.

This movie, unfortunately, this not perfect. The target audience is 13-17 year old girls, and they like seeing (muscular) guys with their shirts off. It is quite excessive. For example, the main jock scores a goal during a soccer game, and suddenly pretends that he?s on Girls Gone Wild, and immediately takes off his shirt for no real reason. Between locker rooms and dorm rooms, there are plenty of bare male chests for all of us.

Out of nowhere, they cut to soccer practice, and it shows Amanda Bynes taking a soccer ball to her (supposed) balls. You may have seen the scene in the trailer. It immediately cuts back to something else. I?ve seen the trailer, and consequently the scene, a couple times, so it wasn?t quite as funny. If I hadn?t seen it already, I probably would?ve laughed pretty hard, even though it really didn?t make any sense.

They spend a little time doing the things that they have to do. Everyone is happy in the end, etc. It takes a few minutes to do these things.

I sat through Sleepover a year or two ago, and it got so cliché that I couldn?t help but laugh at how ridiculous. That is not how I feel about this movie. Like I said earlier, it recognizes that it is cliché, and deals with the things that it has to deal with as briefly as possible. The reason most comedies aren?t as good as they should be is that they feel they have to resolve everything before the end, and they take way too long to do it. In She?s the Man, they do things right. They basically ignore the plot except when absolutely necessary, and do their best (which is pretty good) to keep us laughing most of the time.

There are a lot of cheap laughs.

Amanda Bynes does not appear nude in this film.

David Cross does not appear nude in this film.

Just to reiterate, I highly recommend this movie. If you only have enough money to see one movie, you should probably see V for Vendetta. If you have enough money for two tickets, convince your friends to go with you to see She?s the Man with all of the 13-17 year olds at your local mall. You will not be disappointed. The humor is very fast-paced, and the plot is mostly disregarded.
