You Again

Posted in Reviews by - February 15, 2011

Every high school has bullies, best friends, and arch nemesis, and You Again takes you back to those good old high school days.  Marni (Kristen Bell) was the biggest geek in high school and was teased all 4 years, especially by J.J. (Odette Yustman).  Marni has definitely made something of herself working for a big PR firm and is coming home for the weekend for her brother Will’s (James Wolk) wedding.  She realizes that Joanna, formally known as J.J. is going to be her future sister-in-law, and becomes very uncomfortable.  Marni’s whole family has fallen in love with Joanna and only Marni has seen the real side of her.

As the movie continues, we see another rivalry enter between Marni’s mom Gail (Jamie Lee Curtis) and Joanna’s aunt Ramona (Sigourney Weaver).  All the girl drama continues throughout the whole film, including a crazy dance off, fights in a pool and thrown plates.  Marni tries to expose Joanna for who she really is, but of course it backfires, she has to do it the hard way, and everyone gets hurt.  Will everyone make up in time before the big wedding day?  Will the girls get over their rivalry?

This film has so many big names stars, like Betty White, Victor Garber, and even a very small part played by Patrick Duffy. I thought like it was a pretty good chick flick.  I would watch it again with my girlfriends for a good laugh and relive those high school days.  I think most women would enjoy this cute film!
