Review of Sydney White

Sydney White (2007)
5/10
Am I a dork because I thought this movie was just OK
7 August 2008
This movie is more suited for young teens. It's a teen retelling of Snow White. Tomboy Sydney White goes off to college and pledges to her mom's frat, which is run by the witch, Rachel. Rachel is jealous and kicks Sydney out. Sydney must go live with the 7 dorks whom live in the Vortex house. Sydney also meets a guy whose last name happens to be Prince. He is Rachel's ex and was in favor of tearing down the Vortex to build a Greek center. But after hanging with Syd and the dorks he realizes they aren't that bad and doesn't want to go ahead with the plan. There is also the student elections in which Syd decides to go up against Rachel. There are other things that are similar to snow white, like the looking mirror, the kiss from a prince, etc...

Amanda Bynes is charming on screen. She makes the character. It was amusing, but didn't really make me laugh.

FINAL VERDICT: I thought the idea was neat, but the movie was OK. I think younger people will like it more.
