Isn’t it silly how some films don’t quite fit their stereotypes? I settled down to gawk Drive Me Crazy because I was in the mood to observe a mindless teen movie, and given that this film stars Melissa Joan Hart of Sabrina The Teen Witch fame, I was expecting really more of the same. It doesn’t abet that the beginning of the film reinforces the stereotype (complete with cheesy pop background music, neon-lit opening titles and dumb pan across a typical teenage girl’s bedroom followed by Melissa answering the phone in her best “a la Sabrina” perky instruct) .

What I encountered was a film that is unexcited very mighty rooted in the teen “prom” genre, but is slightly deeper and sophisticated (as well as more ponderous and slow-moving) than I expected. It’s quite a biting and penetrating observation of the high school social hierarchy as well as the conflicting emotions of young esteem. Contemplate of it as a more serious version of Clueless with a stride of Unsafe Liaisons thrown in.
Nicole Maris (Melissa Joan Hart) is a ravishing and common girl at the Timothy Zonin High School (definitely in the “in” crowd) who is organising a enormous formal dance celebrating the centenary anniversary of her school. She has the hots for school basketball star Brad (Gabriel Carpenter) and hopes he will be her date for the dance.

Neighbour and fellow classmate Trail Hammon (Adrian Grenier) is on the other side of the school social stratum. Sporting a “rebel without a cause” attitude and a grungy appearance, he hangs out with nerdy Ray (Kris Park) and “Designated Dave” (Price Webber) – the latter so-nicknamed because he doesn’t drink therefore he always chauffeurs the other kids when they are blind drunk and want to go succor home after a party. At the beginning of the film, the three of them (masterminded by Gallop) stage a prank fascinating putting coloured dye into the school sprinkler system which nearly gets them suspended.
Incidentally, Nicole and Pace ragged to be childhood friends but then grew apart into their different ways. Both have single parents (William Converse-Roberts as Mr. Hammond and Faye Grant as Mrs. Maris) as Chase’s mum died of cancer and Nicole’s father (Stephen Collins) is estranged. Their parents appear to be very “agreeable” with each other, and later on in the film we gain out why.
So, when Brad – on the verge of asking Nicole to the centenary dance – falls in appreciate with a cheerleader instead (when he accidentally fell on her during a basketball game), and Chase’s girlfriend Dulcie (Ali Larter) dumps him because she thinks he’s too shallow (because she is into animal rights and he doesn’t seem to be eager), Nicole and High-tail strike an unholy deal – they will pretend to be in a relationship with each other in an attempt to originate their desired partners jealous.
Nicole gives Prance a Pygmalion-like makeover and suddenly it looks like their crazy thought may unbiased succeed after all. Or will they plunge in appreciate with each other instead? And what about Nicole’s best friend – acid-tongued Alicia (Susan May Pratt) – will she throw a spanner into the works?
The ending may be somewhat predictable, and yet the film as a whole seems to be more than the sum of its parts. The characters are reasonably fleshed out and have complex overtones to their personalities, and the dialogue is reasonably clever in places. However, overall I found the film to be somewhat slow-moving and uninvolving. The pickle is, a romantic comedy with artistic pretensions can aspire to become a portion of serious drama, but an ambitious teen movie ends up looking awkward because – let’s face it – what is the serious equivalent?
Incidentally, I judge Melissa should really finish playing teen roles. She may smooth have the pert dinky body and a perky stammer, but she is not as fresh-faced as she customary to be and it would be nice to view her play her age for a change in a more expansive role.
Hardly a raze of time, DRIVE ME CRAZY isn’t quite the movie it was marketed to be. Though presented as a romantic comedy, this is a film essentially about cliques, and the almost tribal warfare that ensues between them. More, it’s about stepping outside the familiar and seeing what else there is to life. To be determined you won’t be magically transported by this film to some greater conception of high school life. But it does have the capacity to accomplish you remember what it feels like to be in (a predominantly white, suburban American) high school.

Is it amusing? Well, it’s no AMERICAN PIE. There are moments of humor, but you won’t be bustin’ a gut, here. It is, however, absolutely fun. This is definitely a movie for those nights where you don’t want to be challenged, but you equally don’t want to be insulted by blatant stereotype.
Oh, yes, it IS a adore fable. But it’s the social commentary and the characters’ felt angst along the map that makes you preserve watching. The acting in almost every case contributes greatly to this need to discontinue tuned. Others have commented that Melissa Joan Hart is humorous here, but I don’t search for that. She perfectly captures a girl on the frosty side of preppy.
If there’s anything unsatisfying here, it’s that the tension which builds between the two leads never sees actual resolution. The pre-ordained ending simply happens. Though that ending makes sense, we’re missing about one scene of confrontation in which that resolution can be worked out. Also, unlike AMERICAN PIE which is very clearly told from the perspective of teenagers, this film throughout feels as though it’s made by adults trying to recreate their youths. This makes the film somewhat purer and less offensive than AMERICAN PIE, but it does assume a sizable deal of that frenetic, sexual `edge’ off.
