In a review written by Christopher Zinsli he claims Mean girls is "above most of the other teen movies out there." I would have to agree that Mean Girls clearly knows the ins and outs of teenage drama. Critic Christopher Zinsli starts off his review by explaining to us what mean girls is all about. He explains how by watching the movie, we undergo a therapy session regarding backstabbing and name calling. Mean girls pertains to four high school girls part of a group called "The Plastics". The plastics consist of Regina, Gretchen, Karen and Cady. Cady was the new girl in school and comes up with a scheme with two unpopular kids to bring down the queen bee of the group, Regina George. The take down of Regina ends up creating a whole mess of drama within the whole high school between the girls of the eleventh grade. The plastics kept a burn book of offensive things about everyone in the eleventh grade. The book gets out to the public and is distributed in the hallways. This creates a giant cat fight between all the girls. In the end the conflict is resolved and the girls learn their lesson that backstabbing will come back to you in the end. You really get a good look at how cruel girls can be to one another and how difficult high school can really be. I agree with film critic Christopher Zinsli, Mean girls is a "step in the right direction."
