MOVIE REVIEW: It's a Boy Girl Thing
Usually, it's during our teenage years when we face things such as fear, hopes and insecurities. The movie revolves around 2 teenagers, Nell Bedworth, the cute and smart girl, and Woody Deanne, the jock. All their lives they've been rivals.
During a school field trip in a museum, Nell and Woody are paired up by their teacher. They started to argue in front of an ancient Aztec statue absorbing their souls. While they sleep, the statue transfers their souls to each other, waking up in each others body.
Trying to get back to their normal selves again, they tried settling the difference between them and went back into the museum in front of the Aztec statue. They tried explaining to the statue but nothing happened. They thought, they needed more getting to know each other.
But instead of making good for each other, they started ruining each other's lives by doing things they're not supposed to do.
Nell, having her interview for college in Yale, and Woody, having his homecoming football game, they tried helping each other with what they should do. Nell, in Woody's body, is trying to help Woody in Nell's body to study about literature. While Woody in Nell's body is trying to help Nell in Woody's body with his football game.
With constantly seeing each other, they're getting to know more about themselves, they began to feel something for each other. Soon, just after the homecoming football game, they meet up at the locker room and talked about what just happened. Then the Aztec God turned them back to where they're supposed to be. Nell, then saw Woody kissing his ex-girlfriend, head cheerleader Brianna. Hurt, Nell went back home and decided not to go to the homecoming dance, where she and Woody are going together.
At the party, Woody is waiting for Nell. But Nell has no plans of going. But her father tells her encouraging things, things good about Woody. Then she decided to go and meet up with Woody. Then they live happily ever after. JOKE! They just realized that they maybe not Romeo or a Head Cheerleader, but they know they love each other.
**************************************************************
The movie portrays to contradicting characters, Nell and Woody. They're neighbors all their lives at the same time, enemies all their lives because of the differences in their families and in their personalities. Nell, as a smart ass or commonly knowns as a NERD, comes from a well-off family with aspirations of becoming successful on the future. On the other hand, Woody is a "dumb jock" who only thinks about his popularity in school as the head captain of their football team.
