Description

Claire Lyons, the new girl from Orland(ew), Florida, has the nerve to show up at Octavian Country Day school (OCD) wearing Keds and two-year-old GAP overalls. She is clearly not top Clique (aka the Pretty Committee) material and Massie, Alicia, Dylan, and Kristen have no problem letting everyone know it. Unfortunately, Claires family is staying in the guest house on Massies familys huge estate and the girls are stuck with each other. Claires future looks worse than a Prada knockoff. But with a little luck and a lot of scheming, she might just stand a chance.

I loved it! I really hope that they continue to make more movies out of this series. I'm OBSESSED with this series, and I feel a bit ashamed since I'm almost 18 and these girls are still in 7th grade! I remember reading this book when I was in 7th grade.

This movie was very refreshing and the only bad thing about it was that the acting was kind of unnatural and forced at times. But unlike most movies based on books, the plot actual flowed nicely and didn't get stuck on irrelevant things.

The book was well-adapted into a movie, even though there were some things that happened in the movie that didn't happen in the book. Which was kind of cool, because copying the book word for word would've made it an epic fail. This movie was anything but an epic fail. It wasn't super-duper-amazing, but it was amazing enough to make me create an amazon account to make a review about it!

I had very little hope for this when I sat down with my daughters to watch it. By the end of the movie it was clear that they all enjoyed it and so did I. One of my girls has read the books and said it was very close to it. Lets hope there are more of these.

To the people who bought "The Clique" from Amazon, read the first review 'cause there are faulty batches!

Anyway, back to the movie.
Okay, I started reading the Clique when I was 12 and that was 4 years ago. Now I'm 16 and the Clique girls are still 12 in the very first movie.

Remembering back to the very first book and watching this movie is surreal. The movie is almost nothing how I pictured the book in my mind, but they do a very nice, accurate portrayal of the book.

The movie follows the basic plot line, includes many of the characters, ha very interesting fashion, actually has the IMing and State of the Union parts, and quoted many of the funny lines from the book.

Although there were parts of the book that I missed (like the whole tights trend and the Massie insights), the most obvious jump from book to movie were the main characters. Alicia wasn't busty enough, but the whole "rubbing boobs together" part took on a whole new meaning. Massie acted a little too forced sometimes. Kristen wasn't sporty enough. However, this are minute details.

I definitely recommend this to all Clique fans because while it may be very different from what we saw in our minds, it still tells the timeless tale of fitting-in and insecurities with the "loveable" characters and their lines that we know!

I recently purchased 3 copies of this movie for my nieces and behold, none of the discs are actually the movie itself!!! My advice--do not purchase this title for at least the next two weeks!! WARNER BROTHERS--WHAT KIND OF QUALITY CONTROL IS THIS?????
