I enjoyed this movie! I had never heard of it before watching it, and once I found out that that "the girl from Princess Diaries" was in it, I really almost turned it off. BUT, the opening scene with all the white kids "chillin" outside at night acting all "ghetto" with all their rappin' and slang talk really caught my attention. I guess I could relate because I lived in an upper-class, predominately white area, and trust me, those characters are not a far stretch from real life. Yea some of the stereotypes of characters were extremely overdone and artificial, and the thought of two random white girls getting in good with a gang highly respected in "the hood" is totally unrealistic, but I think that's what the creators of the movie wanted to express. How ridiculous, and superficial their lifestyle was. And if you get caught up in it, you better be prepared for the consequences--or else! You have to look at it in a positive way...Anne Hathaway blew me away (since I could only remember her from that annoying predictable princess diaries movie...eeww!). I think it was something that really showed her range as an actress and I applaud her for her willingness to explore new roles. I'm excited to see what roles she chooses to do in the future! Oh yea, and I also enjoyed watching Bijou Phillips...her face is so mysterious & alluring...
