Movie Reviews of Never Been Kissed
Movie Review: Best movie I have seen of Drew Barrymore so far........
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is a teenage movie for everyone who loves comedy. This is a movie about high school, but also about a young woman who needs to find herself.I love this movie so much, because I can see myself in it. I was also teased at school. It's not much fun. This movie is a feel good movie !
In this movie, Drew Barrymore plays Josie, a reporter for the Chicago Sun Times. When she finally gets her break and gets to go undercover, she ends up in high school as a 17 year old girl.
She tells this to her brother, and he let her remember how things were for her in high school, which was all forgotten. "Do you remember what they called you in high school" says Rob (David Arquette who plays her brother). "Josie Grossie" Josie replies. She all remembers and tells to herself in the mirror that it is a very bad idea.
Her first day is a complete disaster: Anita (Molly Shannen plays her colleague) has picked out the worst outfit you could imagine. The second disaster is that she comes late in class and has to wear the sombrero (a Spanish hat). And the third disaster is that she says that she comes from Billy- Bali (suburb of Bali) and tells that her parents are sheep farmers. And all these disasters are happened in like 15 minutes.
After a while when she almost has given up hope, her brother Rob comes and help her out as the popular kid. He helps her to be popular, so that she can get her story.
Her boss (Garry Marshall) is filming everything she's doing, since Josie can't find her story. Josie falls in love with her teacher Sam Coulsen (Michael Vartan), and her boss has found her story: Sam Coulsen. "It's like the Young and the Restless I am watching everyday" says her boss. She refuses to do it!
And at the school prom Josie blows her cover and tells everyone who she really is.
If you want to know the end of this movie, you will have to see it, because I am not going to tell... This movie is a great movie with a lot of humor and good actors. SEE THIS MOVIE !!!
Summary of Never Been Kissed
Let's get this straight: Drew Barrymore started a production company to develop original scripts outside of Hollywood and the first project she chose to produce was this, a romantic comedy written by USC grads Abby Kohn and Mark Silverstein about a nerdy, virginal woman who returns to high school as an undercover reporter, finally gets to be popular, and falls in love. And Barrymore decided, as producer, that the perfect actress to play this virtuous, clean-cut, and downright annoying geek would be... Drew Barrymore? It's hard to believe that after The Wedding Singer Barrymore's not getting enough dopey, formulaic, predictable romantic comedies coming across her desk. The complete inability to buy Barrymore as unattractive, awkward, and unpopular ruins Never Been Kissed from the start, but it's doubtful a better actress could have saved it. The jokes fall flat, the romance between Barrymore and her English teacher (played by Michael Vartan) lacks chemistry, and the portrayals of high school and the newspaper newsroom is clichéd and uninspired (big surprise here: the director, Raja Gosnell, previously made Home Alone 3). Gosnell can't even give the gifted character actor, John C. Reilly, anything to do. Only David Arquette, who plays Barrymore's out-of-control brother, brings any energy to the film. --Dave McCoy
