Storyline
Josie Geller, a baby-faced junior copywriter at the Chicago Sun-Times, must pose as a student at her former high school to research contemporary teenage culture. With the help of her brother, Rob, Josie infiltrates the inner circle of the most popular clique on campus. But she hits a major snag in her investigation -- not to mention her own failed love life -- when she falls for her dreamy English teacher, Sam Coulson.

Reviews
80
An easygoing and amusing romantic confection.

The script is an odd take on the Cinderella formula, but Barrymore makes it shine with her relentless charm.
80
Drew Barrymore has figured out what works, and what works for Drew Barrymore is this: Cinderella stories.
70
There are some indignities that Drew Barrymore should never be made to suffer.

Film Threat
Unfortunately, the script is a light romantic comedy and unwilling to go the extra distance to really make it stick.
