What I mean is that, the mean girls in the movie itself is very noticeable, they are very influential to most children, and their characters are quite dominant that they has the ability to be imitated. The movie is great but do you think it's a little inappropriate for young people to be watching this kind of movie?

I don't think it's inappropriate because the movie has a really positive message to it. It is about true friendship and being good to your friends. I think it may be too adult for very young children because some of the subject matter is more for teens, but I really think it is a good teen movie with a very positive message, and good for all teens to watch, especially girls.

Mean Girls" is a fun movie that can be enjoyed thoroughly by the adult set as well as its seeming target audience, teens. The flick opens up with Cady Heron (Lindsay Lohan) embarking on her first day of the jungle that is high school ever as she has been home-schooled in Africa her whole life. After some initial bumps in the road, she manages to befriend two "artsy" misfits, Janis (Lizzy Caplan) and Damian (Daniel Franzese). Surprisingly, however, she is also quickly welcomed into the Plastics, a group of uber-popular girls who seem to be simultaneously admired and resented by all. On Janis's urgings, Cady infiltrates the Plastics, and her mission becomes personal when the Plastics leader, Regina (Rachel McAdams), stabs Cady in the back.

"Mean Girls" is indeed an exaggerated version of reality, but its depiction of the brutality and ridiculousness of high school and the need to find and stay true to oneself within a social construct manage to ring true. It does not stray away from or gloss over the dark humor that high school inevitably draws out nor is it apologetic in its over-the-topness. The result is a hilarious, well-written/performed film that is unpredictable and worth seeing.

Lindsay Lohan shows us once again that not only is an actress with range and a deft comedienne, she is also extremely likable and charismatic. Other stand-out performances go to Caplan and Franzese as well as Tina Fey (who plays a teacher), Amanda Seyfried (as one of the Plastics, Karen), and McAdams. McAdams, probably best known as the title character in "The Hot Chick", is an actress who continues surprise me with her great comedic skills (don't believe me? Watch her deleted scenes from "The Hot Chick" DVD. I liked them better than the whole movie!!).

All in all, this flick is great fun and more well-done than might be initially expected!

I don't think the movies that innapropriate for kids, I mean it has a moral to the story.
It might be good for some girlsto watch- it could prevent them from being preoccupied with status and looks in high school.

Absolutely not. First off, it is not geared towards children. Children won't even understand the negative things in it. Second of all, the movie does not promote the nasty behavior the girls do- it is against it. Also I think the whole issue of getting fussy over what's in tv shows and movies is stupid. If someone acts badly because they saw it in a movie they are stupid and weak-minded, anyway. And this isn't exactly a violent or obscene movie anyway, it's a high school movie.
