Released on December 14, , by Columbia Pictures , the film is a parody of teen films. In the stereotypical high school community of John Hughes High in Southern California , attractive Priscilla, a popular cheerleader , separates from her talented football star but slacker boyfriend, Jake Wyler. After Jake discovers that Priscilla is now dating timid and weird Les just to spite him, one of Jake's friends, Austin, makes a bet with him to turn Janey Briggs, a "uniquely rebellious girl", into the prom queen. Jake attempts to court Janey's love, but faces adversity from his own sister, Catherine, who is sexually attracted to him ; Janey's unnoticed admirer and best friend, Ricky Lipman; and memories from his past football career. Catherine eventually assists her brother by "drastically" altering Janey's appearance which is simply removing her glasses and ponytail , instantly making her drop-dead gorgeous. Meanwhile, Janey's younger brother, Mitch, and his friends Ox and Bruce, make a pact to lose their virginity by graduation despite still being in their freshman year. Mitch tries to impress his longtime crush, the beautiful yet perverted Amanda Becker with a love letter.


Not Another Teen Movie
In the historical rom-com "Hysteria," a progressive new doctor Hugh Dancy joins a respected women's physician Jonathan Pryce who specializes in curing the female condition of hysteria through manual stimulation. Naturally, the revolutionary treatment is so popular with upper-crust Victorian ladies that the poor young doc develops repetitive stress, leaving him unable to perform his professional duties until his inventor pal Rupert Everett develops an electric stimulator that does the job much more efficiently. But "Hysteria" is far from the first film to highlight a lady's electric best friend. While the topic isn't exactly common, there are plenty of mainstream comedies that include some memorably good vibrations.




I suppose I should be grateful. After years of ridiculing teen movies, here's one that does it for me. It's like that soup that heats itself. Of course Hughes was a lot better than his recent imitators, but people who know that are likely to be in their 30s now and won't be going to see "Not Another Teen Movie," anyway.
