		This fast-paced, MTV-style movie was scripted by the writer of Bring It On and is intended to appeal to older girls (and boys interested in leotard-clad athletes). Although the characters don't seem at first to be the best role models--cursing and personifying "attitude"--they are undeniably strong females who ultimately empower young viewers by standing up for themselves, banding together and taking charge of an unjust system. When it comes to celebrating girl power, the movie nails it.

Although they'll probably want to see it, the movie has a number of elements [see above] which may be inappropriate for kids on the younger end of this age group. Older girls will relate to many of Haley's feelings, like when her father tells her, "You used to be a good kid," and she snaps back, "That's so interesting. You used to be a good dad." They'll appreciate the clever wordplay of statements like "It's not called gym-nice-tics," and will pick up some witty new comebacks, like "I'm so sure, I'm almost deodorant." After all the sarcasm, though, tweens will be relieved to see the competitors give up their mean-girls personas to unite for the greater good.
