I love the movie Mean Girls. But it clearly is making fun of typical high school schools and how they act and typical cliques. They don't only have girl male female stereotypes but they have jocks, band geeks, 'cool' asians and more. It expands on that the most in the cafeteria scene. Everyone has their own group of friends and stay with their clique in their own areas. And then there are the plastics, the 'typical' popular, pretty, mean girls. Not all schools are like the school in mean girls. There are definitely different friend groups and all but I don't think it's to the extent of the school in the movie. Most people are able to intermingle and such.
I love watching this movie. I think it is a great way for girls to see a dramatized version of what getting into the wrong crowd can mean. What is so shocking about this movie is that it is actually based off true events that happened at a high school in Chicago. I've never seen bullying at our school to that extent but I do know that all girls talk about eachother even if they are best friends with the person they are talking about. This movie really sheds light on how petty and immature girls can be. It shouldnt be someones goal in life to ruin someone elses life. This movie is one of the main reasons why girls are looked at so badly. It's a great movie and has a great message but it sucks because not all girls are Regina George. Girls should learn from this movie and not repeat what Regina did.
Great movie. It shows rediculous stereotypes and exploits them, in an entertaining way, using comedy and drama. An innocent home schooled girl gets transformed completely by the "typical American" girl Regina George, then realizes she isn't herself anymore and drops her immature ways. It's a good story, and teaches a lesson to viewers to be yourself and don't fall to the whim of conformity.
I think this movie did an amazing job showing gender stereotypes. Plus is even shows why they are stupid stereotypes. This movie showed a young high school girl transform from being a nice oblivious person, to a mean girl. It showed these transformations using humor and semi drama which made the movie very interesting.
