How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A fizzy, high-spirited romp through mistaken identities and teenage romance, where a girl's elaborate disguise sets off a delightful chain reaction of crossed wires and genuine affection. It's the kind of comedy that knows exactly how silly it is and has fun the whole way.

She's The Man is everything it needs to be as a 2000's teen comedy. It isn't especially believable, but it's funny even after almost two decades.

I want to say they don't make teen comedies like this anymore, but maybe they do and I just don't know about it because I'm 38. I feel like they probably don't though.
