You Again

Among the slapstick, there are musical numbers and a few surprise cameo appearances. In the end, the film leaves you in a dance-happy mood.

Weaver is a natural as the imperious Ramona, but the rest of the cast is flattened by the script, particularly White, who is just window-dressing in a movie that could use the rude humor she's displayed elsewhere.

A talented cast is game, but the lazy script utterly fails them.

Disney's effort to turn Kristen Bell into America's Sweetheart reaches its tipping point with You Again, a flat romantic comedy that packages her in a funny setup and surrounds her with funny people.

Manages to squander three generations of formidable actresses.

Since love and boys fall strictly to the side, we can't tell if this wrongheaded caper was intended as a feminist indictment of female competition or a plain old girl-fight flick.

There is not a laugh to be found in this rancid, misogynistic revenge comedy.

I don't really understand the people who said it wasn't funny. The audience I saw it with really loved it. My husband and I really enjoyed it as well. Great cast, lots of fun.

this is the a step we should all learn when you meet someone who you know bullied you in highschool get revenge on them . i have seen this movie to many though thats why i am giving it a 6/10 . Grade C-

A movie with great actors and fun.

Let's play a game I'd like to call "Word Association:" "She's the Man," "The Game-Plan," "Race to Witch Mountain," and the made-for-tv 'Lifetime' special "Wright v. Wrong;" any reactions? Do the words brainless. emasculating, flat, pulseless, insipid, stale, dull, enervating, and cinematic decadent come to mind? If so, you might be familiar with Mr. Fickman's recent work. One of his latest being yet another Disney-rom-com-meets ABC Family-Oxygen flatliner that tries to sneak in some praise with the likes of a few veteran actresses (Weaver and Curtis-oh and who could forget Betty White). But don't get your hopes to high yet, every director has a motive, and Fickman isn't any different---these women are casted for a reason. As the film progresses (or dissipates further into fatuousness), these gals serve as the final impediment of what seems like a continuing ensemble of nails in the coffin. So, worst case scenario you see the movie to assuage your "Alien" - "True Lies" - "Golden Girls" nostalgia. As for some of the other castings---Kristen Bell in particular---acting appears almost foreign to her in this film. I don't know if she was just looking for a quick payday or what, but I haven't seen her more "out of" her character than she is in "You Again." Half-baked, unattentive, uninterested, ill-conceived delineation of a PR-promotee whose high school unfortunates come to meet her once again. The premise, although some-what intriguing at first, follows close behind the "way overdone" genres of Hollywood today, so much that one might mistaken pieces of the screenplay for another; plagarism in moviemaking is **** right...COPY + ****, now I have a fully-functioning 90 minute rom-com! Now, let me throw in some pathetically selected cameos, a rendition of "Glee" in a hospital, and causeless catfights and you have "You Again." Almost forgot...slapstick humor---made just for you. Verdict: bouyant, lightheartedness that fails to asservate any sort of palpable feeling or pathos; heavily reliant on drollery, slapstick, con-melodramma, and hackneyed substance.
