Plot: Loosely based on Jane Austin's Emma, Cher is your average wealthy popular girl living in Beverly Hills. Her mother died from a routine liposuction and her Dad makes $500 an hour as an attorney. She has climbed to the social height at her high school. She does not like others to see fault in her, and is always trying to improve others. She plays matchmaker to two lonely teachers so one of them will probably improve her grade if he's happy. Also taking a new student under her wing, Tai, she transforms her into a young lady that hopefully the hottest boy in school, Alton will like. Alton however rebuffs Tai because she is beneath him and wants Cher. Cher rebuffs him and turns her attentions to the returning student of Christian. Christian turns out to be someone different then she thought. Through all this there is Josh. Josh is Cher's step brother from one of her father's many brief marriages. According to Dad "you divorce wives not children". Josh is always there to critize Cher and tell her straight forward what he thinks. After Tai's fallout over Alton, she decides she wants Josh. This revelation open's Cher's eyes to Josh and realizes that she's been in love with Josh for a while and never realized it. She starts volunteering in a lot of worthwhile endeavors with the hope of opening Josh's eyes. What she doesn't realize is Josh has liked her all along. In the end, Josh and Cher end up together. Tai ends up with the stoner she met her first day at school (Cher didn't approve of him, but he sobered up), and the two teachers get married.
Impressions: I so love this movie! It came out when I was 19. The dialog in this move is just genius and Alicia Silverstone really embodies Cher. I also love Paul Rudd as Josh. This is one of those movies I can watch over and over again.

hahaha I haven't seen this one in a long time. I used to love this movie I think it's funny. I think the part when they get on the freeway and scream is hilarious.
