You still can’t sit with us!: ‘Mean Girls’

Paramount Pictures; Click image to view trailer!!

‘Mean Girls : The Musical’ is a film adaptation of the popular Broadway musical notoriously sung throughout thespian competitions for the last decade. The story once again, follows Cady Heron as she navigates the social hierarchy of high school and gets involved with the popular group known as the Plastics. However, when Cady falls for Regina George's ex-boyfriend, she becomes a target all on her own. The film features Renee Rapp as Regina, who brings a certain attitude to the role but lacks the sparkle. The characters in the film feel emotionally vacant, and the overall adaptation seems to have been dumbed down from its original source material. The singing performances, unfortunately, lack depth and formidable talent. ‘Mean Girls’ was disappointing and fell short. It’s unfortunate to see this beloved musical not live up to its Broadway reputation.
