It might even be considered unrealistic in many aspects. After all people totally buy that <a title=\"Review\/photos of Donnie Darko, the cult classic starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Drew Barrymore, Jena Malone and Patrick Swayze\" href=\"http:\/\/pinartarhan.com\/blog\/donnie-darko\/\">Drew Barrymore<\/a> and David Arquette are high schoolers, and sometimes romantic movies feel less realistic than an extra futuristic fantasy \/sci-fi movies. But it is all in the name of some good fun and unless you are feeling cynical (or you despise the genre as a rule), this movie is good to watch.<\/p>\n<p><em>That thing&#8230;that moment when everything around you becomes hazy and the only thing in focus is you and this person<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> <\/em><\/p>\n<p>The lead character is Josie (<a title=\"Review of He's Just Not That Into You, starring Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer Connelly, Bradley Cooper, Ben Affleck and Scarlett Johannson\" href=\"http:\/\/cinemaroll.com\/cinemarolling\/he-she-is-just-not-that-into-you\/\">Drew Barrymore<\/a>)- a totally unhip, unattractive and anti-social female working as a journalist. She is also a die hard romantic who feels like she has never had the perfect kiss. Yeah, girls in general tend to enjoy kissing more if there are some intense feelings going on. One day she gets to do a feature undercover story about today\u2019s highs schoolers. But there\u2019s a problem. As her brother Rob reminds her, she used to be an unpopular, fat kid everyone made fun of. She was of course in love with the most popular guy and as you can imagine, she didn\u2019t get him. Now she has to put herself put there, make friends, get popular and find some juicy story to write about. She might be wiser and much lighter this time around, but she\u2019s still clueless when it comes to social activities and popularity. She just gets along better with the nerds than the popular kids. And to make matters more complicated, her English teacher (played by <a title=\"Review of Monster in Law starring Jennifer Lopez, Jane Fonda and Michael Vartan\" href=\"http:\/\/pinartarhan.com\/blog\/monster-in-law-starring-jennifer-lopez-jane-fonda-and-michael-vartan\/\">Michael Vartan<\/a>) might just be the guy she\u2019s been looking for all her life&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>The movie is a romantic comedy but it generates enough laughs before it gets all romantic on you. Drew Barrymore and <a title=\"Review of the kick-ass TV show Alias, starring Vartan\" href=\"http:\/\/pinartarhan.com\/blog\/alias\/\">Michael Vartan<\/a> make a nice couple but there are some interesting names in the cast with small roles such as James Franco and Jessica Alba.
