4.0 out of 5 stars Suspension of Disblief Set Aside, Good Movie
Ah, a feel good movie. A 28 or so year old Josie works as a copy editor but dreams of being a journalist and having her own story. She is plain, with mousey hair, pimpled skin, and simple, plain clothes. For the most part, people tend to overlook her, if they pay her any attention at all. So becoming a journalist in the competitive field is unlikely, unless she does...

1.0 out of 5 stars Quite possibly the most terrible movie I've seen... ever
Cliches galore... cheese... regurgitated 90's themes... terrible acting... what more can one ask for?

This is the worst movie I've seen in my life.

4.0 out of 5 stars Suspension of Disblief Set Aside, Good Movie, November 7, 2011
Ah, a feel good movie. A 28 or so year old Josie works as a copy editor but dreams of being a journalist and having her own story. She is plain, with mousey hair, pimpled skin, and simple, plain clothes. For the most part, people tend to overlook her, if they pay her any attention at all. So becoming a journalist in the competitive field is unlikely, unless she does something extraordinary to prove she's able to handle the job.

Because she looks so young, and due to other circumstances, she is finally assigned a journalist job: Go back to high school and infiltrate on the inside to get her story.

Josie realizes she can reinvent herself now, to be anyone and act any way she wants, because she's not a high school student anymore. She starts off a bid nerdy, but soon comes into her own, when one of the more popular 'boys' in school takes an interest in her. Her all-star baseball playing brother gets into the act when he comes to the school under pretense to help her out as well.

In the process of writing and researching her column for the undercover investigation, she wears a wire and is monitored by those with whom she works. When one of the younger, more attractive and popular teachers acts in what can be misconstrued as an inappropriate way with Josie--who is supposed to be a child--the boss tells Josie that they have to expose the teacher.

Josie has now betrayed everyone's trust and the truth, as it has a way of doing, finally comes out to everyone... in the end, Josie apologizes to the teacher, but he still feels betrayed, so she writes to him in the paper and sets up an extraordinary meeting with him in the public eye, revealing she has never had a real, grown up kiss... and that she wants him to be her first. Will he show up? That's the ultimate ending to the show, but you'll have to watch it to find out.

There are a few laugh out loud moments in the show, if you're one who has ever had an insecure moment back in high school. There are some smile moments too, and the ending works for the story. It's a good movie for a fun and cute entertainment experience and I'd say it's mostly okay for kids to watch too. There's a little language, but no sexual content or violence or other scenes that would be uncomfortable for kids and parents to watch together.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Movie!, November 15, 2011

This is a classic! One of my favorite movies... you get it all - drama, comedy, coming-of-age, etc.
Not too many movies can evoke actual emotion like this does.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this movie!, December 21, 2011
This movie is totally cute and awesome. I don't get how some people could give it a low rating; it's a great story, very entertaining, and it has a happy ending. Kindof a girly movie, but it is really great and it makes me smile :)

1.0 out of 5 stars One of the most boring and stupid movies, December 19, 2011
It's just a waist of time.
The plot is obvious from the very beginning, the action (what action???) is one of the slowest ever, characters are so exaggerated that they are unrealistic in anything they do, and the movie itself gives a wrong impression that american teenagers are just a bunch of silly girls and stupid guys.
DO NOT WATCH THIS. IT'S ONE OF THE WORST MOVIES EVER.

5.0 out of 5 stars Adorable, December 18, 2011
An awesome movie to watch with your girlfriend. Not a real example of an editor's life but it is all fun.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not Bad, December 28, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
The disks were more scratch than I expected but they still play without skipping. But when you buy used items, you really can't expect the best. They still play without skipping so I'm satisfied.
