Clueless Movie Review


Clueless: a timeless high school classic?  It may be too much to live up to. The movie is loosely based on Jane Austen's novel Emma. In the center of the movie is a high school girl named Cher. She has a best friend, Dionne and together they meet the ever so clueless Tai and decide to show her the ropes of their high school.

 The plot is not original but it's still entertaining. The cast of course is a dream cast ranging from the lead, Alicia Silverstone to Brittany Murphy. Most characters could not have been played by another actor with out changing the energy of the scene or overall movie. The message of the movie which is don't meddle in other peoples live and forget about your own happiness, is pretty straightforward but is still effective. The movie ending with Cher ending up with the perfect guy is a classic predictable happy ending. Overall maybe Clueless isn't a timeless classic but it is still a very good movie.
