Clueless (1995) follows a rich and successful high school student named Cher who deals with finding love and losing her popularity. This film is VERY 90s and was a feel good film that was so enjoyable and fun to watch!

Firstly, the soundtrack was iconic and fit the tone of the film so well. It included a lot of nostalgic tracks and captured what the 90s were really about!

This movie was also pretty funny at points which made it super fun to watch! It was self aware in it's humour which I really liked, I found myself laughing throughout a lot of the movie.

All the characters were exaggerated, but this definitely added to the charm. I loved Tai, Brittany Murphy was the perfect fit and she was so loveable and sweet. I think Travis was my favourite character though! I liked Cher's character development, and her relationship with her father was adorable. The romance between Josh and Cher was a little strange, but I could look past it. I'd also like to add that the dialogue was good and very iconic!

Visually, it was a pleasing film to look at. I loved the costuming and outfits. The cinematography was good, not too flashy but it definitely didn't need to be! I liked a lot of the colour palettes too as they were bright and catch the audience's attention.

Lastly, the pacing and structure was good and followed the theory of equilibrium. It was fast paced and chaotic in a good way, the run time went by quite fast! I didn't want it to end! However, I did love the ending; it was super happy and upbeat.
