Review

Andy Fickman's movie, She's the Man, is a fast paced, entertaining, and humour-filled movie suitable for all ages. It is based on the classic Shakespeare work, "Twelfth Night". She's the Man includes well known actors and actresses such as Amanda Bynes, Channing Tatum, and Laura Ramsey. Among the humour is a scene when Amanda Bynes' character, Viola, cross dresses as her twin brother, Sebastian, so she is able to play on the boy's soccer team. Hilarity ensues as Bynes gets herself into many awkward situations. At one point she is in a room with a tampon up her nose, covering up with a fake nosebleed. She becomes forgetful at times of her new "manly" ways, and at one point begins to discuss fashion with other girls. She also forgets that her ring tone is "I'm a Barbie Girl" by Aqua. Bynes' character has many faults as she portrays a guy but she does a good job of convincing the soccer team. Fickman's movie has lots of catchy music that makes you want to jump up and dance, such as "No Sleep Tonight" by The Faders. It contains numerous hilarious moments, and lots of relatable incidents. Overall, I would rate this movie 4.5 out of 5 stars, a great movie in total!
