the lack of emotion in cadys voice seemed to be a main issue, they totally screwed up stupid with love😭

[kelsey]

Renee in a cast interview said she played Regina like she was hitting on Cady the whole movie. The bi-panic felt real. lol

[CWazBroadwayBandGeek]

Reneé, Auli’i and Jaquel CARRIED this movie.

[deborahhyun]

sadie sink could’ve killed as cady and this is my roman empire- she’s been on broadway so she can definitely sing and she could’ve brought a lot of ppl to see this movie in theaters

[jazzberry]

When the primary antagonist is giving "bi-panic" while the main love interest is giving "uuuummmm" then I think it's safe to say the casting team and the writing team were on two different pages.

[leighann_]

My main issue was Cady's really abrupt transition from sweet, innocent Cady into mean girl Cady (which wasn't really convincing). Lindsay Lohan was able to play both so well and her transition to "plastic" was more subtle and gradual, but this actress really only fit the sweet/innocent side to me (even in her clothing, as you mentioned).

[Denf]

The way Cady killed any comedic and dramatic momentum every time she showed up on the screen really was criminal. She literally felt like an afterthought the whole movie even though she's a main character and that was such a cruel thing to do to that poor actress lol.

[angelairwaves]

The numbers from Mean Girls the Musical require a LOT of vocal strength, and it's just such a mystery why they decided to cast Angourie as Cady!! Her voice simply doesn't fit the belting required for the main character role, and it makes you wonder what sort of directoral choices went into deciding that they'd prefer to change the songs rather than pick a different actress.

[KoolKid]

I can't lie when Aaron Samuels first turned around I was also like wait HE's supposed to be taking our breath away? Like later in the movie his "cuteness" grows on me because he's actually really sweet, but it didn't give the teen heartthrob feeling from the first head turn lol.

[joykinser]

This was Auli'i's ROLE. She was fantastic! She and Damian were a very bright spot in this movie.

[vanillerobalinho]

Hannah trying to be not too hard on Angourie Rice's songs is just hilarious

[liammcfarlane]

One thing this movie did really well is show that the story isn’t about Cady, it’s about Janice and Regina. Cady was always just the middle-man in their games

[oz]

Hannah saying “she’s so hot and so good and singing and I just want her to have everything she wants … who said that” was SO REAL

[samanthaDH]

“That hair’s not that big.”

THANK YOU

[jesekreanne]

My husband and I have now made a full on bit of "I'm astounded and nonplussed". 😆 When we have to do something that we really don't want to do, we just deadpan into the void while singing that line.

[wordlife]

When Renee says "Get in loser" with that look.... my entire body shut down

[eht]

For me, the thing I love most about musicals is how EXTRA everything is. It's not about having a pretty voice (even though they do), it's about conveying all the emotions with every line.
With 90% of the songs in this movie musical, it felt like they just wanted to show off how pretty their voicals were, and absolutely nothing else. They were afraid to get silly with the vocals or do anything other than sing the exact note.

Choices were definitely made in this movie...

[SiwaPyraVOD]

Poor Angaurie, she said it was really hard to not only sing but then sing in an American accent and I think it probably did a disservice to her vocal ability in the movie

[lizee]

ok but we need to talk about Auli'i part in Apex Predator when she sings “how can you outsmart”

[ac_demarco]

i felt so mean while watching this because i was SO hard on angourie. i physically could not change my face from a mild look of disgust and confusion during stupid with love and hannah's reaction makes me feel so justified. she is trying JUST AS HARD as i was to be as nice as possible 💀
