Just One of the Girls (1993)

Just One Of The Girls is a Teen Romantic Comedy that came out in 1993 and stars Corey Haim as a young teenager named Chris who is constantly being bullied by one of the guys in school and can't even get into school without being pushed around. So Chris decides to disguise himself as a girl only for his guise to be permanent at his school. Problems arise however when he falls in love with a girl who becomes friends with him in school. Chris eventually gets a shock when he finds out that the girl he became friends with as a girl is actually the sister of the guy who bullies him in school. So how far can Chris go as a girl at his school?Overall its a silly film about a guy who becomes a girl and it reminds me of She's The Man only gender swapped for example in She's The Man its a girl that disguises herself as a boy whereas in this film its a guy who becomes a girl.If you are into these films then do check it out.

Usually I'm a bit of a fan of the bad eighties & early nineties film featuring now has beens...but this film is so incredibly terrible that it was a real endurance test to sit through. Guys dressing up as girls has been done to death - but never so pathetically. Corey Haim's performance was abysmal as usual, Nicole Eggert was not much better. This has no redeeming qualities, even if you are a number #1 fan of an actor/actress in this piece of trash - stay away!

ALANiS is the only reason to watch this movie! If they ever re-release the movie the cover should feature her picture and she should be the first one listed in the credits! The movie has some early Canadian ALANiS hits like "Too Hot", "An Emotion Away", and remixes of "Feel Your Love" (Which she performs at the end!), these songs and her performance/cameo is the only enjoyable parts of the whole film. ALANiS didn't even have to try to steal the spotlight...she must be the only reason this movie is still printed. The rest however is ridiculous far-fetched tripe which is as boring as it is disgusting(ie. The shower scene). When a film features a guy shaving his legs, wearing a long blonde wig, and sporting panty hose, you know you're in for a real "winner". The fact that everybody is convinced that this guy is actually a female is incredible, anyone could tell that it's really a guy. The acting is nothing short of pathetic (not including ALANiS), and the plot is ludicrous. Watch this film for one purpose...ALANiS. I would normally rate this movie a 0, but since ALANiS is in it...10. Rock on ALANiS!!!

Alanis Morrisette (pre-makeover) as the teeny-bopper singing 2 minutes before the credits roll - what else is there to watch in this movie? Alanis' mere pre-introspective presence is worth the rental!
