Year: 2001
Director: Tommy O'Haver
Plot: Ben Foster stars in this teenage comedy as Berke Landers, an average high schooler who has achieved high status by winning over Allison (Melissa Sagemiller), reputed to be the most popular and beautiful girl in his class. After an initially winning time, Allison finds herself drawn to the hot new guy in school, leaving Berke in the lurch. At the risk of ruining his unsteady reputation, Berke concocts a scheme for getting Allison back: he will join the school production of A Midsummer Night's Dream and prove his romanticism to her. Realizing he needs an effective acting coach, he turns to Kelly (Kirsten Dunst), who was once the annoying little sister of a best friend and has suddenly blossomed into a grownup -- to whom Berke finds himself drawn. Berke must then decide if getting Allison back is the ultimate priority, as he falls for the more sensible Kelly, all while trying to maintain a credible presence both in school and in his new acting gig. Get Over It also features R&B singer Sisqo, comedian Martin Short, and Shane West in supporting roles. ~ Jason Clark, All Movie Guide

Body: First of all, I've never seen this piece of teensploitation.  But come on, how hilarious is it that Sisqo is in this?  Wow, there were a lot of bad movies coming out when I was in high school.  And there's still a lot of bad movies coming out now, featuring pop stars that have no business acting.  But The Thong Song? Super hilarious.

Body: I'm all for the idea of unlikely leading men. Especially in comedies about teen romance, a phenomenon often determined by forces no greater than whose locker is next to yours. But give me someone better than Ben Foster, please. In Get Over It, Foster plays Berke, an average-looking, heartbroken high schooler with no discernible personality who has just been dumped by his gorgeous childhood sweetheart, Allison (Melissa Sagemiller). Allison claims that the spark between them is gone (extinguished, no doubt, by Berke's leaden disposition) and appears to be much happier dating the school's new hottie, Striker (Shane West), a member of an 'N Sync-like band that makes the girls swoon with hits such as "Love Scud." Berke discovers that both Allison and Striker will be trying out for their school's production of A Midsummer Night's Dream -- have we seen this movie before? -- and enlists the talents of songwriter/thespian Kelly (Kirsten Dunst) to help him secure a part as well. Soon, Berke has Beautiful Girl No. 1 wondering why she ever refused his obviously true love and Beautiful Girl No. 2 shifting from friend to starry-eyed let-it-be-me! mode while simultaneously putting the audience to sleep. Don't be fooled by Get Over It's brand names: Dunst's luminescent Kelly is snuffed by the ho-hum mediocrity of the characters surrounding her, and those who aren't familiar with the thong-inspired rhythms of Sisqó will wonder who the new teen-flick schlub is. Martin Short, as the play's outlandish director, saves the film from being a total disaster by injecting a little Waiting for Guffman-style humor into the mess and emerges as Get Over It's only sympathetic character. He is, after all, the only one besides the audience who sees how hapless and uninteresting these students are. (He instructs one to "go with your instincts, then do the opposite.") The pace is labored, and the jokes -- including a ridiculous ever-humping dog and an accident-prone, model-perfect student who looks as if she's about 30 -- are often painful to sit through. Which makes Get Over It a rather accurate re-creation of the never-ending hell that is high school -- but who needs to experience that twice?
