Really good watch, would watch again, and can recommend. A modern day re-telling of Snow White. Not an easy task to get a modern ensemble cast to be significant, but they do a good job for the characters being mostly socially awkward societal rejects. Amanda Bynes pretty much carries the movie, but that's to be expected from a Snow White. The fun twist is they went with a "vs the rich" trope against greek row instead of her being princess-like. The movie is a lot of fun, and Amanda Bynes does a great job of competitive girl on the social battlefield as does Sarah Paxton.

Sydney White reimagines the Snow White tale in a fun, college setting with modern twists, relatable characters, and a light, feel-good storyline. Though some plot points lack logic and depth, strong performances and a charming narrative make it an enjoyable rom-com, especially for fans of fairytale-inspired teen films.
