The film mean girls is about a home school girl where she gets transferred in to an American high school where she gets her self in an popular crowd “where she did not want to get her self in” as time passes on she discovers a new side of her where the relationships teenage girls have with each other. In this movie teenage girls are portrayed as backstabbers and very mean and stubborn. The main group in this film is known as the plastics they act superior to everyone else and the attitude of wannabes reflect this. The relationships between all the girls in this film are all very similar they all smiley and happy with each other when they together, but seconds later they be back biting about each other which shows these relationships are just for the special word “use” that’s what all teenagers do what do you think?
