She's The Man
Pros: Great characters
Cons: Amanda n Channing is awsome
Everybody has a secret... Duke wants Olivia who likes Sebastian who is really Viola whose brother is dating Monique so she hates Olivia who's with Duke to make Sebastian jealous who is really Viola who's crushing on Duke who thinks she's a guy... When her big brother decides to ditch for a couple weeks in London, Viola heads over to his elite boarding school, disguises herself as him, and proceeds to fall for one of her soccer teammates. Little does she realize she's not the only one with romantic troubles, as she, as he, gets in the middle of a series of intermingled love affairs.
Here's the thing Viola's soccer team at Cornwall got cut so she wanted to join the boys team, but they did not allow. So she thought "If you can't join them, beat them". And so she does, she disguises herself as her twin brother Sebastian, and goes out for the Illyria Boys Soccer Team. But she didn't plan falling in love with her roommate Duke. But the thing is Duke has his eye on Olivia. The thing that makes matters worse Olivia starts to fall for Sebastian who actually is a girl and she/he has a sensitive side. If things couldn't get more problematical the real Sebastian (who is in London working on his music) comes home early. He arrives on campus and has no clue that he was replaced by his twin sister
A modernization of "Twelfth Night, or What You Will." Duke likes Olivia but she does not return his love. Viola's soccer team is canceled so she goes to another school disguised as her twin brother to play, where she meets Duke. A movie worth of hilarity ensues.
When Viola learns her soccer team is no more, she wants to join the boys team. The coach says no, so she dresses up like her brother Sebastian, and goes to his school for two weeks and pretends to be him. Her roommate Duke also plays soccer, and has a serious crush on a girl named Olivia. Olivia likes Sebastien, who is really Viola who really likes Duke. When Sebastian comes home, everything gets complicated!Was this review helpful? Yes - NoModern Shakespheare
Pros: Funny, Heartwarming, for teens and up
Cons: Not for young kids. Content for not under 13.
She's the Man is a modern interpretation of William Shakespheare's "Twelfth Night or What You Will" and it's a brilliant interpretation. Amanda Bynes is wonderful as Viola who pretends to be her brother Sebastian so she can get onto a soccer team, since the girl soccer team at her school was cut and the coach wouldn't let her join the boy's team. In the process, her roommate - Duke, is infatuated with Olivia, another beautiful classmate. Viola agrees to help him if he helps her get into First String on the Soccer team. This leads to interesting consequences . . . She starts falling for Duke at the same time Olivia is falling for her. It's an interesting triangle that you will LOVE to watch unfold. How will it end? Watch it. You won't be disappointed. I wasn't!

Pros: She's funny
Cons: nothing over the top funny
I watched the movie and maybe I've just outgrown films of this magnitude. I think Amanda is funny in her own right and there were parts that were cute, but nothing extremely memorable. I liked it, but I can't imagine watching it again.

"She's the Man" is an ultimately entertaining teen movie which takes the gender-bending action of Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night" and drops it in the middle of a modern-day American boarding school.
Viola (Amanda Bynes) is a tomboy and a soccer star on the women's team at Cornwall Prep. Her life is soccer, which becomes a problem when her school cuts the women from the sports program. Better than most of the boys, Viola wants to suit up with them but is snubbed by both the coach and the team's captain her boyfriend. So it's "end of discussion end of relationship." Viola hatches a plan to pursue her sporting dreams at rival school Illyria, where her twin brother has just enrolled. Twin brother, Sebastian, is skipping off to England for two weeks and nobody at Illyria has ever met him.
Viola disguises herself as her brother and moves into the dorms where she meets her roommate and fellow soccer player Duke (Channing Tatum). She begins to gear up for Illyria's season opener against Cornwall and has to navigate a complicated love-triangle, in addition to other challenges like taking a shower alongside her male teammates, without them finding out about her girl parts.In reality, nobody who looks like Bynes could get away with impersonating a 17 year-old male. Viola is too pretty to be a boy but Viola puts on her wig and fake sideburns and, suddenly, she's the most socially awkward nerd-boy you've ever seen.The Sebastian disguise doesn't have to be convincing. What matters is that all the other characters are oblivious to facts that are obvious to the audience. The laughs come from seeing Viola get away with a ridiculous scam. In one scene, Duke and fake Sebastian hug each other, but Viola slips out of character and gets a little too friendly. But it's the knowledge that Duke is disturbed by being frisked by someone who is actually a girl that makes us laugh.Other than that, "She's the Man" offers audiences the simple pleasure of Amanda Bynes who seems to be a natural in comedic roles. Her Sebastian/Viola is definitely a caricature but it's a perfectly illustrated one. From her mixed-up half southern, half Canadian drawl (her misguided version of the typical teen boy cadence), to her crotch grabbing and Eminem-like posturing, Bynes gives us a hard laugh. So in conclusion, I think "Sh'e's the Man" is an exceptionally fun movie to watch with friends and family. Amanda Bynes scores again!!Was this review helpful? Yes - NoI just saw this movie, cant wait to have it!
Pros: Very funny
Cons: Is not on DVD yet.
I went to the movies, and I saw this movie. Great movie!... Amanda is a lil bit over-acting, but shes good tho. It was so funny. I laugh a lot!
and theres a lot of hot guys all over the movie! And I almost cry in one scene. Well it is the best movie in teathers for this year (in comedy).
SO grab ur keys... and run!Was this review helpful? Yes - No
