modern update on Snow White?,
By
This review is from: Sydney White (Widescreen) (DVD)
i think this is a modern retelling of the snow white fairy tale.it hasmost of the same types of characters as the fairy tale does.but instead of dwarfs,it has dorks.and the movie takes place on a college campus.it's an under dog movie,so it is fairly predictable,but it is a fun movie to watch.there is a great mix of characters with odd quirks,and Armada Bynes is so likable it's hard not to like the movie.she has great comedic timing and plays the fish out of water role very well.i laughed quite a bit throughout the movie.i like the fact that it's a movie that takes place on campus,but is not raunchy,or low brow.it's nice to know a movie can be funny and entertaining without being crude,lewd or offensive.not that there's anything wrong with that.i also really liked Sara Paxton as the school president/villainess.i thought she was very convincing.overall, a very entertaining 100 plus minutes.my vote for Sydney White is a 4/5

Quand la démocratie ce lève enfin ! (version étudiante),
This review is from: Sydney White (Full Screen) (DVD)
Ah l'école... la sainte "obligation" de devoir rentrer dans un moule ou un autre ou bien d'être mis à l'écart de la "masse" pour le restant de sa vie... c'est tout de même drôle de remarquer que pourtant la plupart des élèves ne font pas partie d'une fraternité un peu comme dans la société nous ne sommes pas dans un groupe ou un autre... pour la plupart nous ne sommes que nous-même c'est à dire des gens simple mais qui non pas rien de plus ni de moins que leurs voisins...Alors pourquoi ces minorités que sont les fraternités peuvent nous mener comme elles le font (comme bien d'autre minorités...) tout simplement car nous les laissons faire, arrêtons donc d'avoir peur des petites garces et rentrons leurs dedans une fois pour toutes, nous avons le droit à la parole, nous avons le droit à nos opinions, nous nous devons d'être nous même pour notre bonheur ! Alors si vous croyez que l'humour, un peu de légèreté et de philo de masse peut vous faire une bonne soirée, évoluer un peu même (pourquoi pas) allez donc louer ce petit film, il est plutôt bien fait après tout ;o)

Greeks and Geeks,
By Amanda Richards (Georgetown, Guyana) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (HALL OF FAME) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Sydney White (Widescreen) (DVD)
This light-hearted teen film puts yet another twist in the Snow White fairy tale, with the cherubic teen queen of comedy (Amanda Bynes) in the lead role.Well versed in the role of the underdog rising to a challenge, Bynes' character sets off to college to follow in her mother's footsteps, but finds the going rather Grimm. The witch in this version is spelled with a "b", not necessarily for "blonde", and Rachel Witchburn (Sara Paxton of Aquamarine) is set on making Sydney's life a living hell. Jealous that Sydney has become the apple of the eye of her ex-boyfriend Tyler Prince (Prince - get it?), Rachel engineers a scheme to publicly humiliate our heroine, which sends her deep into the black hole of the Vortex (a dilapidated campus building), where she meets seven antisocial dorks (!) whose habits match up to the seven little guys in the original tale. Never one to let a witch have her day, Sydney gives Rachel a dose of her own medicine, and the result is a teen comedy that's funny in places, but overdone in others. It's okay, but no classic, and not one you'll want to ride off with into the sunset for your happily ever afters. Short Attention Span Summary (SASS) 1. Bynes shines, supporting cast not so much 2. Geeks take on Greeks 3. Brothers Grimm think: "Hey! They turned our witch into a blonde!" 4. Gentlemen don't always prefer blondes 5. Good guys live geekily ever after Conclusion Wait for it on cable, but don't expect too much Rated: 3.5 stars Amanda Richards
