But I'm a Cheerleader, a review by Tom




Title: But I'm a Cheerleader
Year: 1999
Director: Jamie Babbit
Rating: 15
Length: 89 Min.
Video: Anamorphic Widescreen 1.85
Audio: English: Dolby Digital Stereo
Subtitles:

Stars:
Natasha Lyonne
Clea DuVall
RuPaul Charles
Melanie Lynskey
Michelle Williams


Plot:
Megan thinks she's cheering for the same side, but her parents thinks she bats for the other side!

Megan has got it all - she is popular, pretty a model student and is dating the captain of the football team.

However, the cheerleading teenager is accused of being gay by her religious, over-zealous parents. They pack her off to a sexual reorientation camp not realising that it is "camp" in more ways that one!

What Megan's parents hoped would set her on the straight and narrow is a revelation to her, and a breeding ground for her burgeoning sexuality!

Extras:
Scene Access
Featurettes
Interviews
Trailers

My Thoughts:
I have always enjoyed this movie. It is really campy, but in a fun way. The camp is used to satirize the ignorant people who think one has a choice to be gay or not.
One of the workers at the sexual reorientiation camp is played by RuPaul in probably in one of few appearances out of drag.

My Thoughts:
Last night we watched this film. It is one I borrowed from the library. Well going into this one you pretty much know what to expect... just a fun and cute film for the entire family. Which is exactly what you get. Of course my being a fan of the superhero films this one appealed to me even more. I found it to be a nice surprise to have some familiar people doing some of the voice roles. There was Colin Hanks from Roswell and Debra Jo Rupp from That '70s Show. I feel comfortable recommending this film for the entire family. I plan on adding this (as well as the other "Buddies" film) to my collecton before too long.

Ghost Whisperer Marathon, a review by addicted2dvd


Disc 4:

13. Deja Boo
A young man who has died fears he is going to be reincarnated as the baby of Melinda's girlfriend, so he tries to stop the pregnancy.

My Thoughts:
Good episode. This is the first (and only... so far?) time the series touches on the idea of reincarnation. I liked they way they portrayed all of his past lives to Melinda. Made for an interesting episode.

14. Speed Demon
The ghost of a street racer has it in for his old girlfriend, now a racing champ. He believes she killed him in a race one year ago - and now he wants revenge!

My Thoughts:
Another good episode. Enjoyed the street racing in it. Seeing the young boy (Delia's son... forget name) sneaking out the way he did makes me as a parent worry a little. My daughter is 12yrs old... how long will it be before she starts trying something like this?

15. Mean Ghost
The Vengeful spirit of a cheerleader is attacking her former squad one by one. But Melinda learns that another girl at school may have wanted her dead.

My Thoughts
Another really good episode that I enjoyed a lot. I liked how they took a little look into Melinda's teen years... and what she had to go through in high school with her gift. I found it interesting how they could do up Jennifer Love Hewitt to look like a teen so well... without having to get a younger actress to play the part. I mean she does look young... but I wasn't expecting that to work as well as it did.

16. The Cradle Will Rock
A jewelry store employee who was killed, and is the only one who knows where stolen money is hidden, orders Melinda to get a message to his wife...or else!

My Thoughts:
Yet another good episode. A good episode story... but also... after a several episode break from it.. at the end of the episode it also touches on the season long arc again. Of course that is to be expected as there is only 6 episodes left in the season. I imagine for the most part the rest of the episodes will be used to close out the season long arc.
