This movie is so funny that it inspired me to attend my high-school reunion.
The movie's high school reunion takes place in Chicago with the requisite high school stereotypes in attendance. Although the characters are typical, their dialogue is not. I ended up balling in laughter at the originality of the well-delivered lines.
Check out Lara Flynn Boyle who plays the class psychotic. In one scene, an overbearing, married couple can't stop boring the dinner table with stories about the joys(!) of parenting. The Boyle character slinks away to the hotel lobby, calls their house, and threatens to kill their babysitter. When she returns to the dinner table, the married couple is receiving a cell-phone call from the terrified babysitter. Unfortunately for all, they have to run home to save their babies in the suburbs.
P.S. Don't let the director, David Schwimmer of "Friends," scare you away from this gem. This is one film he got right.
