You Again - review

Marnie (Kristen Bell) hated high school. Battling bullies and braces, she escaped her home town as soon as she could and forged out a successful career in PR. But when she returns home for her brother’s wedding, she is shocked to discover his fiancĂ©e was her high school bully.

With Joanna seemingly having changed her ways, Marnie’s not convinced and is determined to prove that Joanna isn’t the nice girl everyone thinks she is. But when the families meet up, it turns out Marnie isn’t the only one facing a face from the past as her mum and Joanna’s aunt also went to school together.

As the two families play along at being friendly, Marnie & Gail (Jamie Lee Curtis) can’t forget high school and know now’s the time to get revenge. So with everyone competing against each other, the run up to the wedding is anything but smooth resulting in a lot of laugh out loud moments. 

But when Marine interrupts the rehearsal dinner with a video showing Joanna’s true colours, the wedding is immediately called off, leaving her wondering whether she did the right thing or if it’s time to leave the past where it belongs?

A great girl’s movie with humour and fun attached. With a great cast, this movie made me smile and showed how sometimes what happens in high school can stay with you for life.

Great fun.
