Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDuring the filming of the scene when Torrance, Missy, Jan and Les carpool to a football game, a driver, angry that the film's motorcade was making him late for dinner, attempted to drive the camera truck off the road. It appears the character of Les is just an overly cautious driver who keeps checking his side mirrors. Huntley Ritter is really watching Mr. Road Rage get pulled over by the Highway Patrol.
- GoofsThe Toros and Clovers don't seem to have a coach. At High School level all routines must be approved by the coach. Also no team would be permitted to attend a competition unless the coach is present. (As the other teams do.)

The story is about a suburban cheer squad that has to redefine itself in the face of the year's biggest competition. The usual teen tropes are included, so it warrants a C-plus for originality. There is plenty of angst, but no acne.
But some good cheer choreography gives the film credibility. And a great message about good sportsmanship (when the team captain takes steps to assure that they will compete against the best) elevates the film.
Another plus is the trio casted for three central roles: Kirsten Dunst, Eliza Dushku, and Gabrielle Union.
