Among the slapstick, there are musical numbers and a few surprise cameo appearances. In the end, the film leaves you in a dance-happy mood.
-
60There are no surprises here, just a by-the-numbers comedy that's better, and funnier, than it has a right to be, thanks to the efforts of the actors in it.
-
50The movie's pleasures are scant, apart from its observance of Gene Siskel's Rule of Swimming Pool Adjacency, which states that when well-dressed people are near a swimming pool, they will - yeah, you got it.
-
50You Again is at its funniest in the early scenes, when everyone is pretending all is well beneath forced smiles and plotting eyes.
-
50As the girl fights and rivalry play out, flashes of wit are obscured by the plot's contrivances.
-
50Weaver is a natural as the imperious Ramona, but the rest of the cast is flattened by the script, particularly White, who is just window-dressing in a movie that could use the rude humor she's displayed elsewhere.
-
Yes, You Again. We've met before.
-
50Even the best performers can only do so much to elevate mediocre material. In the long run, good or bad, the material always wins.
-
40A talented cast is game, but the lazy script utterly fails them.
-
40A lot of gunk: dance-offs, sing-alongs, awkward exes, and a dirty-talking White blasting through, I'm afraid, the last bits of her novelty. That again?
-
40Bitchy cheerleaders and swimming pool catfights are just two of the tedious cliches propping up this brittle comedy.
-
38Disney's effort to turn Kristen Bell into America's Sweetheart reaches its tipping point with You Again, a flat romantic comedy that packages her in a funny setup and surrounds her with funny people.
-
38Little more than a glorified situation comedy. The problem is, it's all situation and no comedy.
-
30Has no inherent laughs, so an extremely versatile and talented cast struggles mightily to make something funny that simply isn't.
-
30Infinitely worse than you dared to hope it wouldn't be, You Again dumbfounded and then defeated me.
-
30What follows is one set piece after another in which the women make fools of themselves as the script herds them toward a happy ending of hugs and tears.
-
30The girl world found in crass comedies such as You Again, movies that reduce women to sad clichés and a uniform level of bad behavior that would appall the cast members of "Jersey Shore."
-
30Manages to squander three generations of formidable actresses.
-
25An unlikable and excruciatingly unfunny comedy.
-
25Suffers from an increasingly common movie defect: appealing, sharply drawn supporting characters, and a cast of main characters that is as unlikely as it is unlikable.
-
20A chatty little bore.
-
Since love and boys fall strictly to the side, we can't tell if this wrongheaded caper was intended as a feminist indictment of female competition or a plain old girl-fight flick.
-
12This is another miserable movie about women at war over nonsense.
-
0You Again could be taught at film schools as an example of how not to make a movie. And how not to humiliate veteran actors.
-
0There is not a laugh to be found in this rancid, misogynistic revenge comedy.
