Rating: Summary: People cheer for cheerleaders? Review: Yeah, another teen movie. And yes, I've seen it. As much as I like to protest that I hate these movies, if course I don't. How can you hate them? They're sweet and funny and so predictable, to not love them, is to be...un-human. When I checked out this movie, I tried avoiding it at first, looking around to maybe see a better movie. But, no, this movie screamed out at me, with all it's evilness. I gave in. The clerk (I have a feeling that's not what you call it), raised her eyebrows, laughed and asked "what IS it with this movie?" I don't know if she asked me, the guy she was talking to, maybe herself. I rushed home at sat down to see it. Of course I have to say what a GREAT movie this is. I loved the cheerleaders, both male and female (Jan: Hey ladies, wanna see my spirit stick?). Cliff was sweet as a punk rocker (ok), as well. This movie is also funny, (some personal faves of mine are: Jan: You know everyone just comes to see you ladies anyway. Missy Pantone: Right, because we're such fine athletes. Jan: Oh, live with it! You'll be fighting off major oglers, while we defend our[selves]. Missy Pantone: What is your sexuality? Les: Well, Jan's straight, and I'm... controversial. and... Torrance Shipman: So, is that your band or something? Cliff Pantone: The Clash? Uh... no. It's a British punk band, circa 1977 to 1983-ish, original lineup anyway. Torrance Shipman: How vintage!). As always, after one of these movies, you come out feeling great and smiling like an.. And of course, the cast is young and talented. Do I recomended you to watch it? Of course, otherwise I wouldn't have posted it or visted, like, every web site made for it. I am in love with this movie. Just don't tell my friends.
Rating: Summary: very good! Review: ok, all through high school i hated the cheerleaders at my school. maybe hated isn't quite right, but i really didn't like any of them. i never really thought about cheerleading competitions and figured football games were really all there was too it. kirsten dunst and jesse bradford are cute as a couple. jesse bradford is not only very cute, but his character is the nice boy. the one that brings flowers to torrance and that makes a tape for her. their little teethbrushing scene is funny in it's own little way. jesse's character tries to encourage her to do what she wants to do. it's great! all of the cheers are super funny. the beginning with the roll call is hilarious. i mean, it takes are the stereotypes about cheerleaders and makes a cheer about them! i bought this on dvd without ever seeing it before and now it's one of my favorites.
Rating: Summary: Wonderful Fun! Review: This movie was absolutly a blast! Its sassy, fun, and good for all ages. The character interaction was terrific. The plot was both true and fun. It shows just how much fun a group of teenagers can have while working hard. This movie is A+ solid!
Rating: Summary: Knock-you-off-the-bleachers routines will have you cheering! Review: The countdown to the national cheerleading competition is on! The invincible San Diego Torres, led by newly-elected captain Torrance Shipman (Kirsten Dunst), is once again a shoo-in for first place... that is, until they discover their rock-solid routine was stolen from rival team, the East Compton Clovers! Meanwhile, the hard-on-their-luck Clovers and their sassy squad captain Isis (Gabrielle Union) are looking for some rah-rah respect... but only if their team rounds up enough money to compete! Scrambling to out-cheer one another, will the Torres or the Clovers come home champs or chumps?
Rating: Summary: think 'clueless' with pom-poms and pyramids...pure fun Review: when i first saw the trailer for 'bring it on,' i thought it was going to bomb. i had absolutely no inclination to see a movie about a cheerleading competition. but everyone that i knew who had seen it loved it. after hearing this, i wanted to check it out for myself. however, i am a guy, and it's pretty emasculating to run over to blockbuster and rent a movie ostensibly directed towards teenage girls. i finally got to watch it a couple weeks ago with my little niece (how convenient), and i felt the same way as many of my (guy) friends...i loved it. even as a simple teenie-bopper movie, it works on many levels. characters spoke in more or less vernacular teenage slang (a la 'clueless'), not like eloquent wordsworths as the twenty-something teens from dawson's creek. the writing surprised me. it showd a wittiness and biting sarcasm that could bring a smile to even the most uptight conservative. the acting was adequate, and good in some areas (eliza dushku, kirsten dunst), and the performances were top-quality. too bad the 'token' minority cheerleading squad were portrayed as one-dimensional, only seen outside their uniforms in one short scene. but perhaps delving deeper into the whole race/blaxploitation thing would have hindered the carefree spirit of the movie. so just to conclude, 'bring it on' is pure entertainment, and i'm not ashamed to admit that i liked it.
Rating: Summary: Oh Mikey You're So Fine! Review: Kirsten Dunst has made another cool movie! This movie was a teen movie that was actually fun to watch at a movie theater. The opening scene was a wonderful parody of cheerleading (even though I respect cheerleading!). The story was a little weak accept for the racial disputes between the two rival schools. Mainly it is was all about the guys (or girls for you guys), the dance numbers and it's humor! This movie is really good and if you're an '80's song freak, watch the credits to see a very funny rendition of "Mickey!"
Rating: Summary: BEST MOVIE Review: I loved this movie. Lets just say that I sat in fron tof the tv and watched this video about 6 times. I know evry chear every dance every word ever said in this movie! It is by far my favorit I suggest everybody go out and buy it or rent it!!
Rating: Summary: Bring it on ... again! Review: I wasn't sure what I'd be getting when I bought this movie ... I got it on the strength of a few cast members who I'm a fan of, and for the intro sequence I saw on a late night talk show (which was hilarious). Now having seen it, I can definitely recommend this as a highly enjoyable movie. It had me laughing all the way through, and to my surprise, piqued my interest in the world of competitive cheerleading as well. Quite a feat!
Rating: Summary: Not that good, but three stars for Kirsten Review: She is really the only thing to recommend about this movie, filled with mostly forgettable characters. And, unfortunately, the best part of this movie is the opening cheerleading scene. Nothing else that follows ever really lives up to that and its too bad. I think it couldve been a fun movie. As it is, its kinda boring and the cheerleading scenes thereafter are uninteresting. But dont feel too bad for Kirsten. She is only going to get better.
Rating: Summary: This movie rocks! Review: I am a cheerleader and this (kind of) shows how hard it is to get 1st! My team got 1st at regionals and 8th at nationals and cheering is a lot harder than it looks!
