Mean Girls is unbelievably awesome and hilarious. Lindsay Lohan used to be so innocent but look at her now. I wonder why she cannot go back to acting, she could have been one of the A-list movie stars by now. I like the character Cady Heron (played by Lindsay Lohan) because of how she likes math and *spoiler* wins the math competition towards the end of the movie.

*Spoiler Alert ahead*
Cady Heron is originally from Africa and moves to Evanston, Illinois (where Northwestern University is) because of her parent's job. She then goes to North Shore High and is pretty much a small fish in the sea. She then gets acquainted with Damien and Janis and Janis gives her a guide to the North Shore lunch room showing who sits where. Eventually the Plastics (similar to the main Clique) get introduced as the worst one can meet with insecure rich girl Gretchen, whose dad is the inventor of the toaster strudel, Karen who is a dim-wit, and the meanest of the mean, the Queen Bee, Regina George, whose like a God in Girl World. And because of that rumor that Regina spread all around school on Janis, Janis uses Cady (since she got invited by the Plastics to sit with them) to plot revenge on her without realizing that Cady eventually "overthrows" Regina as Queen Bee and becomes one herself, being hated by all her friends and etcetera. After that, Regina, after getting fat from the high-calorie bars, decides to plot revenge on Cady by using the Burn book. Then, a major riot happens and Mrs. Norbury (Tina Fey, also the screenwriter of this movie), the math teacher does something to stop this riot. Then, Regina scolds Cady and then gets hit by a bus which is claimed to be Cady's fault because she pushed her (but it's only a rumor). Then for extra credit in Cady's calculus class, she had to join the math team and they eventually won. She wore her math team jacket to the spring fling (equivalent to the prom?) and gets crowned as Spring Fling Queen. She then makes a speech and apologizes for what she has done and rips the crown into pieces and throws it to everyone and says that they are all beautiful. She then goes back to her old self and the next year at North Shore, everything is at peace with the breakup of the Plastics where Karen become a weather announcer, Regina channels her anger into sports (Lacrosse), and Gretchen joins another clique, the Cool Asians.

The movie is based off the book "Queen Bees and Wannabes" and Tina Fey acted and wrote the screenplay.

Actually I didn't like this movie.
It was too negative and not funny.
That's only my opinion.
