About this movie

Reese Witherspoon (Legally Blonde) is Tracy Flick, a straight "A" go-getter who's determined to be president of Carver High's student body. But when popular teacher Jim McAllister (Matthew Broderick, The Producers) observes the zealous political locomotive that is Tracy, he decides to derail her obsessive overachieving by recruiting an opposition candidate (Chris Klein, American Pie) - with disastrous results! Here's a smart, witty and hilarious jab at high school politics helmed by award-winning director Alexander Payne (Sideways).

I love this sly, smart movie. But the description in the Google Play store is inexplicably about Barack Obama,.and nothing to do with the Reese Witherspoon comedy.

I don't understand the negative reviews. This film is an amazing study in human behavior. Particularly female behavior.
