In true journalistic style, we watched it when it landed over the weekend and although the movie probably won’t be making your list of greatest flicks to date, it’s definitely worth checking out if you love a cheesy teen romance movie, I mean, who doesn’t?
Stealing the show (and drawing in the masses) is Addison Rae who stars as the leading role. Playing an influencer and the popular gal at school who tries to turn the geeky boy (Tanner Buchanan) into her prom king before term’s out.
Since it has aired, the movie has been trending in Ireland with the cast, crew and fans around the world sharing their excitement and love for the flick.
“This is completely surreal. This cast & crew will ALWAYS have such a special place in my heart. I love y’all so much. I will never get over this. Thank y’all for believing in me and making this happen!!! All my wildest dreams are coming true!! AHHHHH. Okay now I’m gonna keep watching the movie (you should too) ,” Addison took to Instagram to write.

Also starring in the movie and making her acting debut is Kourtney Kardashian.
In a role not too far off her POOSH day-to-day work, Kourtney plays a brand representative for one of Padgett’s (Addison’s) biggest social media sponsors.

Kourtney has also been tweeting about the release from Italy, while on holidays with her beau, Travis Barker. It’s believed that Kourtney got the movie role after BFF Addison put her forward for the slot when the casting director was still looking to find a few minor characters – handy!
For those who need a refresher on the iconic late ’90s movie that He’s All That is based off – the film starred a young Freddie Prinze Jr, the late Paul Walker and Rachael Leigh Cook, as two high school popular guys place a bet to see if the other can turn any girl into prom queen in just one week. Obviously, geeky art student Rachael Leigh Cook (Laney) becomes the subject matter as they try to turn her into the “it girl” before the big dance at high school.
What’s cute about this remake is that the OG actress Rachael Leigh Cook is back on the screen, but this time as Addison’s mother!

So if you’re a cheesy movie fan this is certainly an easy watch to throw on during the week! Streaming now on Netflix.
