I had very little hope for this when I sat down with my daughters to watch it. By the end of the movie it was clear that they all enjoyed it and so did I. One of my girls has read the books and said it was very close to it. Lets hope there are more of these.

If you were ever 14, or knew a girl who was this is a fun movie. Not as enjoyable as the book series but a good afternoon movie.

I watched it with my 15 year old daughter and she loved it. (she would give it 5 + stars)

To the people who bought "The Clique" from Amazon, read the first review 'cause there are faulty batches!

Anyway, back to the movie.
Okay, I started reading the Clique when I was 12 and that was 4 years ago. Now I'm 16 and the Clique girls are still 12 in the very first movie.

Remembering back to the very first book and watching this movie is surreal. The movie is almost nothing how I pictured the book in my mind, but they do a very nice, accurate portrayal of the book.

The movie follows the basic plot line, includes many of the characters, ha very interesting fashion, actually has the IMing and State of the Union parts, and quoted many of the funny lines from the book.

Although there were parts of the book that I missed (like the whole tights trend and the Massie insights), the most obvious jump from book to movie were the main characters. Alicia wasn't busty enough, but the whole "rubbing boobs together" part took on a whole new meaning. Massie acted a little too forced sometimes. Kristen wasn't sporty enough. However, this are minute details.

I definitely recommend this to all Clique fans because while it may be very different from what we saw in our minds, it still tells the timeless tale of fitting-in and insecurities with the "loveable" characters and their lines that we know!

I was excited to here that the Pretty Commitee (the main charactors) was finally going to be a movie. I was worried though that the character descriptions in the book would be totally different in the movie (you know how directors change that) and it wouldnt follow closely to the story line. But it did do a fantastic job on both. But i gave it a four star just because it wasnt exactly the way i thought it would be. This movie is a good watch for a teens and if you read the books you really should get the movie just to see the differences and similaritie ( more similarities) or just for fun, but your sure not to be dissappointed i know i wasnt!

this was a movie that my 11 yr. old daughter wanted. I bought and we watched it together and we both loved it..

I think that this movie was really cute. I laughed, at a few points I felt a little bad for a few of the characters, I smiled, and overall, I really thought this movie was good. I thought the movie was very close to the book, and I thought the actresses did a very great job portraying the characters. I definitely recommend this film to anyone who likes the Clique series, or anyone who really likes a good movie. I give it a thumbs up. My friend loved it, and she is a sofmore in high school. I'm in sixth grade, so really there is a good age range. i don't recommend it for younger kids, because the movie is pretty girly and they do swear twice. Otherwise, I give this film a thumbs up!

I wish this movie was longer, considering how many books are in the series. I really enjoyed it though to be perfectly honest. I hope they make a sequel.

I loved it! I really hope that they continue to make more movies out of this series. I'm OBSESSED with this series, and I feel a bit ashamed since I'm almost 18 and these girls are still in 7th grade! I remember reading this book when I was in 7th grade.

This movie was very refreshing and the only bad thing about it was that the acting was kind of unnatural and forced at times. But unlike most movies based on books, the plot actual flowed nicely and didn't get stuck on irrelevant things.

The book was well-adapted into a movie, even though there were some things that happened in the movie that didn't happen in the book. Which was kind of cool, because copying the book word for word would've made it an epic fail. This movie was anything but an epic fail. It wasn't super-duper-amazing, but it was amazing enough to make me create an amazon account to make a review about it!

When I saw a commercial for the clique it looked like it wasn't that great, but then a lot of people commented that it was good, and I realized it probably would be good...even if it wasn't the best movie ever, but it was one of my favorites!
At times it wasn't awesome, but mostly it was! Here are a few pros:
* It stayed very true to the clique book and it had some of the same lines. I'm glad they didn't change it a lot. I could reconize my favorite parts from the book coming up in scenes.
* The characters fit the descriptions pretty well, especially Claire (or Kuh-Laire)! She was exactly how I imagined. Layne was perfect as well. "Want some oatmeal?"
* Their clothes we sooo cute! Except Claire's and I didn't like the green uggs Massie wore in one scene, but still cute clothes!
* The OCD school was even more awesome than I thought...indoor tennis court, a yoga room, fashionable clothes, the cool art room...it was lovely! I want to go there! :-)
* It was funny and it had a moral: you don't have to be popular to have friends.

Sometimes it wasn't exactly that good (it still was great though) here are some Cons:
* The characters looked like 9th or 10th graders and they were suppose to be in 7th grade! I think they should have used characters that looked a little younger.
* Claire wasn't that good when she was suppose to be crying, she kept smiling a little bit. I thought they could have taught her to cry a little better, so it would look more professional in the movie.
* Dylan was suppose to be a little chubby, but she looked like a normal weight to me...
* It was an awesome movie and it should have been longer, it was like 90 minutes.

I recommend The Clique movie to clique book fans ages 11-15! :D

This is modern day Clueless, meets Mean Girls. I thought it was funny. If you like teen comedies,with girl drama; you might find this to be a good movie. Its not hilarious; but I still found it to be good. It will make you think back and say," school was not this bad."
