Product Description ------------------- After living in Africa with her zoologist parents, Cady Heron (Lindsay Lohan) must brave the wilds of high school – where she is taken under the wing of the popular girls, The Plastics, led by the cool and cruel Regina George (Rachel McAdams). What follows is a treasure trove of sharp, witty humour that defined a generation, inspired a hit Broadway musical, and popularised countless catchphrases. Co-Starring and written by Tina Fey, and featuring Amanda Seyfried, Lacey Chabert, Lizzy Can, Daniel Franzese, and Amy Poehler, Mean Girls is nothing short of a pop culture phenomenon and an iconic classic. Special Features: • Commentary by Director Mark Waters, Screenwriter & Actress Tina Fey and Producer Lorne Michaels • Featurettes: Only the Strong Survive / The Politics of Girl World / Plastic Fashion • Word Vomit (Blooper Reel) • So Fetch - Deleted Scenes with Optional Commentary by Director Mark Waters and Screenwriter & Actress Tina Fey .co.uk Review ------------- The cutting wit of Tina Fey (the first female head writer for US comedy breeding ground Saturday Night Live) brilliantly fuses pop culture and smart satire. Fey wrote Mean Girls, in which a formerly home-schooled girl named Cady (Lindsay Lohan) gets dropped into the sneaky, vicious world of the Plastics, three adolescent glamour-girls who dominate their public high school's social heirarchy. Cady first befriends a couple of art-punk outsiders who persuade her to infiltrate the Plastics and destroy them from within--but power corrupts, and Cady soon finds the glory of being a Plastic to be seductive. Mean Girls joins the ranks of Clueless, Bring It On, and Heathers, cunning movies that use the hormone-pressurized high school milieu to put the dark impulses of human nature--ambition, envy, lust, revenge--under a comic micro. Fey manages to skewer everyone without forgetting the characters' hess humanity; it's a dazzling and delightful balancing act. --Bret Fetzer
