you again

you again won't win any oscars. or probably even the box office. but it can entertain you for two hours. kristen bell is quickly becoming the queen of stupid-fun rom-com's. the film follows bell as marni, a geek turned chic 8 years out of high school. when marni returns home for her brother's wedding, she soon learns his fiance (odette yustman) is none other than j.j., her high school nemesis. the movie follows marni's trials and tribulations as she attempts to split up the marriage. this is all paralleled by marni's mom (jamie lee curtis) dealing with high school nemesis, j.j'.s aunt ramona (sigourney weaver). the worst part of the film was the underutilization of the supporting cast. kristin chenoweth and betty white barely get any screen time, and when they do it's just for sight gags and quick laughs. another rivalry between white and cloris leachman is barely explored and could have added to you again. marni's lack of friends, in high school and in her adult life, is another hole the film needed to fill. overall, if you want to laugh and see some of hollywood's best comedic actresses at work, check out you again. but don't expect too much.
