She's All That was a staple movie for me when I was in...I think middle school? Maybe early high school.

It's so cringe-y when I watch it now

They always portray the shy outcast are some kind of weirdo. It was just so over the top with the main female lead and they also made the jocks your typical jerks.

^ Exactly That typical transformation scene at the end where Prinze's character is like "wow, she really is pretty" and you're thinking, "you JUST noticed???!"

The same thing was said about the 2013 version of CARRIE. I can't remember the actress' name (Chloe... something ) but people thought she was too overtly pretty to play the character like Sissy Spacek did in the original.

^ That's it, Kristen

I think with Rachel Leigh Cook, it was slightly more believable because she had more of a book-ish vibe about her. Having said that, she talked so much that it wasn't believable. She didn't seem shy at all.

My favourite romantic movie but was sad was if I stay with Chloe in it I do love a good romance film.

I haven't seen it either. I think I dumped those types of movies after A Walk to Remember

^ AWTR was very over-rated in my opinion (I hate that word, but it feels appropriate). I loved the soundtrack of that movie, however

I definitely prefer Jake and Melanie together in SWEET HOME ALABAMA. There was recent talk of a possible sequel
I didn't watch it for the first time until last year in January and I loved it

actually he was already noticing her beauty at the beginning of the movie but yeah it wasn't really until she removed her glasses

but I can see the overused clichés

I think Princess Diaries did it better b/c Michael already liked Mia before her transformation

it's Chloe Grace Moretz guys

I actually think AWTR is underrated compared to other similar movies like The Notebook and TFIOS

I personally can't stand Mandy anymore lol

I wasn't a huge Princess Diaries fan, but I did see it a few time, it can be pretty enjoyable.

AWTR wrenched my heart and it's a tough watch for me. If you want a less emotional attachment and some serious 90s cringe, I suggest Here on Earth. It's hilariously terrible and so enjoyable to watch with a group of people.
