Handsome John Hughes High jock Zack bets his friends that he can turn nerdy Janey into the most popular girl in class. With the help of Zack’s sister, Catherine, Janey ditches her ponytail and glasses and turns beautiful. Zack falls in love with her.
The film spoofs a variety of teen movies, including “The Breakfast Club,” “10 Things I Hate About You,” “Bring It On,” “American Pie,” and “She’s All That.” It also pokes fun at common tropes found in these types of movies, such as the nerdy girl who takes off her glasses and becomes beautiful, the popular jock who falls for the less popular girl, and the various cliques found in high school.
“Not Another Teen Movie” is a lighthearted and humorous take on the teen movie genre and is sure to pul out laughs from viewers who are familiar with the films being parodied. It’s probably one of the best parodies out there and definitely a classic. This gets 6 popcorns and jumps into the movie vault.
