Prom film `She's All That' is just that, hilarious Hughes films? The answer is the film Staffk:Mier "She's All That" (Miramax). What would happen if you "She's All That" takes place mixed "Clueless," "My Fair in an upscale Los Angeles Lady" and a pack of John high school where Zack, played by Freddie Prinze Jr., has just been dumped by his less-than-congenial trophy girlfriend.

with an embarrassingly prom queen, and choosing as accurate and hilarous the subject of the wager the characterization of a "Real artsy outcast Laney, played by World" cast member. Rachael Leigh Cook. Look for In a moment of testosterone her as a recurring character on induced desperation, Zack "Dawson's Creek." makes a bet with this buddies This simple bet turns out to that he could raise any girl in be a challenge when Zack school to the status of his ex. finds out that Laney doesn't Zack's friends sweeten the want anything to do with him. deal by throwing in the title of Zack spends most of the movie proving himself to Laney, while transforming her into a swan. In the process, Zack falls in love with his project. "She's All That" relies less on tired "90210" teen drama, and more on humor. The use of a largely unknown cast is also a refreshing change form the usual list of TV stars. The cast does have some familiar faces in Kevin

But don't let this movie scare you. Yes, the plot is a complete retread of other movies, and the no-name cast doesn't seem like much of a draw. But "She's All That" is actually funny, and worth at least the price of a matinee ticket.
