However, Cady fall in love with a boy in her math class, Aaron who happened to be one of Regina's ex-boyfriend and girls just don't date your friend's ex. Cady then realized that in order to survive high school, she had to be two-faced, mean and backstabber to her own friends.

Trailer: 


Another classic, old but gold movie on the house. I might have watched this one or two times before but I never actually paid attention to the movie. Now that I have, I gotta say, this movie is a lot. I mean, I am not sure if this movie really represent what high school in America/Canada was like because my school was not like this. Well, the cliques did exist but not to this extreme of being mean to each other.

Cady, who once a kinda innocent and kind and super extremely smart girl slowly changed when she spent her time with The Plastics. I love how we actually could see how she behaved and changed over the time. The movie actually did served me a plentiful comedic scenes to keep me entertained though there wasn't time where I had a laughing fit but it's okay.

One thing that I really really don't like about this movie is how pathetic Cady became just to grab the attention of her crush. Every time she did something to get his attention, I cringe. Maybe it was normal, it was high school after all. But yeah, I doesn't sit well with me.

I personally loved how their math teacher, who I had forgot the name, settled the problem when the Burn Book made by The Plastics, went (what the term nowadays would be known as) viral at the school and all of the girls went wild, and just bat shit crazy with each other. Honest confession with each other and asking for forgiveness from their whole class was really great. 

Overall, it was a great movie to watch to fill in your time. And yes, I probably will watch it again someday.
