Goddamn this movie was funny. Like laugh-out-loud-while-watching-it-alone-at-3-in-the-morning funny. Discuss.

The preview bugged me immensely. Specifically this interaction:

Girl 1: "You're really pretty"
Girl 2: "Thanks"
Girl 1: "So, you think you're pretty?"
Girl 2: "What?"
Girl 1: "I said, 'So you think you're pretty?'"
Girl 2: *Stares Awkwardly*

I Don't Get It.

Don't let the preview scare you off. Lohan is mostly just there to look hot, it's the supporting characters and the writing that make this movie great.

It's a scare tactic by Girl #1 to keep Girl #2 in her place. Kind of like when Bugs and Daffy were in a shouting match and Bugs would switch position suddenly and Daffy would wind up doing what he didn't want to do. Except MEAN. She accepted praise of her appearance, therefore she's vain. An unexpected attack, therefore the awkward "what just happened?" stare. It's so incredibly mean, it's almost shocking. She couldn't have been more cruel if she had poked her in the eye with a pencil. But here it slips by almost unnoticed, in the blink of an eye (without the pencil), and the audience shares Linsey's discomfort.

Great movie altogether, and Tina Fey almost naked from the waist up (almost).

One of these two comments just convinced me to see this movie.

I liked this a lot. I didn't laugh out loud much, but I was thoroughly entertained and it met my expectations.

Oh yeah, Lindsay Lohan is hotter than I thought she'd be, but Tina Fey is still the queen. Schwing!

Tina Fey is the woman who does SNL's news update. She's also a head writer for the show and wrote the screenplay for mean girls. So she's hot AND smart AND funny (AND married).

Yeah, but that doesn't matter with those hollywood types.
