BA_Harrison When high-school head cheerleader Dianne (Marley Shelton) gets herself knocked up by star footballer Jack (James Marsden) and finds herself in desperate need of some cash, her fellow pom-pom shakers (Melissa George, Rachel Blanchard, Mena Suvari, Sara Marsh and Alexandra Holden) decide that the answer is to rob a bank, taking their inspiration from a bunch of heist movies.A squad of hot cheerleaders in skimpy outfits robbing banks: bring it on, or so I thought. Sadly, this Clueless meets Reservoir Dogs teen comedy isn't anywhere near as good as the premise sounds. Obvious eye candy aside, there really is very little to recommend this film, which is 99% lame teen 'dramedy' and only 1% crime caper. Laughs are in very short supply, as are thrills, the one and only bank job lasting all of a few minutes.3/10 for the attractive line-up of girls and for featuring The Breeders on the soundtrack.
Dragoneyed363 I had been mildly anticipating seeing Sugar & Spice because I can appreciate the quirky, tongue-in-cheek teen comedies for what they are and have enjoyed a lot of them in the past. The plot with this one sounded hysterical and I like Marley Shelton, so I was ready to be entertained with this little flick.I found Sugar & Spice to be an excellent and extremely amusing, enjoyable teen flick with edginess and sass. The material was not "rolling on the floor, laugh out loud" hilarious, but it was enough to where you get tons of continuous little chuckles and I always had a smile on my face, always. That's why I loved this movie so much. It was able to make me grin and laugh all the way through at such little things, such as the Betty masks and whole robbery ordeal, and little lines and scenes, tons of which are through out the entire film.The performances were wonderful for their characters. Marla Sokoloff, Marley Shelton, Mena Suvari and James Marsden gave my favorite and most memorable performances of all, but everyone was memorable in their own, special way and I really just had an all out pleasurable experience with this joyous film and the joyous characters and essence it brings.In the end, as I've said, I had an amazing blast with Sugar & Spice. It was fun, fresh and though it's not for everyone, it certainly was for me, because I saw it as much more than most would for it's eccentric and zany sense that was very different in ways from other films of it's caliber. If you can enjoy films like these for what they are, try on Sugar & Spice for it is really just non-stop delight from start to finish with lovable characters and a screwball, surreal plot. I enjoyed it greatly.
micaela-galvin Sugar&Spice was a very funny movie.. i don't know what the other people were talking about because it was very fun to watch and was not boring or disappointing. Its about a young cheerleader who get pregnant with the star jock and there parents kick them out. So she and her best friend who are also her cheerleader squad decide to rob a bank for many reasons. I Recommend this movie to anyone because its got action, drama,hot blondes, cheerleaders and many many more people. I Think that this film will make you laugh and even cry. It has a very funny ending as some people that you don't think will get together get together in the end. So I rate this movie 10/10.
darinwerner You have to take it for what it is worth. It has hot young girls dressed scantily and they don't take themselves seriously. The humor is silly but not stupid, and the plot is actually not too bad. They developed a nice mix of eclectic personalities for each of the girls. It is all told from a narrative perspective, with one of the girls giving police an exhaustive statement of the crime and what led up to it. I especially love the constant quoting of musical lyrics by the lead female character.I wouldn't call it a great family film with redeeming moral values and wouldn't slap in the DVD when the pastor and his family come over.Ultimately, as a guy, the hot young girls part was good enough for me. Anything else was icing. Gee, I'm easy.
