'Romy & Michele's High School Reunion' is one of the funniest chick-flick's ever in my opinion.
Based around two best friend's Romy (Mira Sorvino) & Michele (Lisa Kudrow).
In their late twenties, the two are invited to their high school reunion. Both feel inferior in what they have achieved in life so decide to attend the event & conjure up a story making them both appear glamourous & successful.
The movie is very funny, I had many laughs at the more dim of the two (the stereotypical dumb blonde) Michele.
What's nice about the film is the way it accentuates what true freindship really means, standing by one another. The two went from being the fat girl (Romy) & the girl with the back brace (Michele) to being two attractive fun-loving women.
The lesson the pair learn is to be yourself & be proud of who you are.
While at the reunion they are both faced with the high school bitches (now all pregnant & married) & their former crushes.
'Romy & Michele's High School Reunion' is a feel good movie that'll give you a few laughs. The performances from the two leads are great particularly Kudrow who is always nails playing the ditzy blonde.
The only real critisism is the use of stereotypes (such as the dumb blonde) but the movie isn't really targeted at the kind of people who would really care. It is a chick-flick, so I would only really advise fans of this genre to bother watching it. So for all you men considering this, don't bother!
In conclusion a great film; funny, relative & a good ol' moral at the end! You've got to love Michele & Romy who've clearly stood the test of time friendship wise.
So buy it for yourself now ladies!
