The Clique (PG, 2008)

Lots of shopping (Prada, Old Navy, exc.); Language 12 year olds shouldn't be using; Massie is a role model at the end for not being a 'bully' anymore; Claire lies and gets the consequence; Laine is an 'outsider' and Claire learns you don't need to get what you want to be popular and it doesn't matter what other people think.

I read the series when i was 9 and put it away until I was 11. Im really glad i did tht because I understood it more. It shows the insecurties and the behind the scenes look at the "mean girls." I contine to read the series, fully enjoying them. However, my 7 year old sister started reading the 1st book (she stole it of course) and stated immatating Massie and the movie didnt help. OVERALL I GIVE THE WHOLE CLIQUE SERIES AND MOVIE AN A!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I loved this movie the first time I watched it! It could be better than both Mean Girls movies. It had some iffy language for a pg movie, definitely a more intense pg movie, and these 7th grade girls dress as if they're 15. Definitely for 11 or even better, 12 and older.

Not that this is a great movie, but as light entertainment, sure! However, the girls in the movie don't set good role models - their behavior is not appropriate for anyone of any age. Cliques are accurately shown here as terrible things. But I would hesitate to show this to preteens the age of the characters without having a discussion first about the ethics involved.........

I love this movie so so much. I'm 15 and I think this movie is great. There are some scenes that I typically wouldn't want my own kids seeing if I had them, for example the word "b*tch is used three times, along with some other names, but that's not too bad. I love fashion and definitely know what it's like to get sucked into the consumerism of having the best clothes and accessories out of all your friends. Realistically, I think the movie is far-fetched based on the events' happenings in reality. But it's still a great coming-of-age movie for tween girls especially. When this came out, I was 12 and it really showed me that I could be my own person and not always have to fall into the grasp of peer pressure and trying to fit in. The messages in the movie are wonderful for young girls to know, and I definitely recommend it. In spite of the language and crude remarks, it's a great movie. And honestly, I believe that without all the harsh names and remarks made, the movie's message would be completely lost. It's a fantastic move to show a tween daughter or anyone who's getting to that awkward stage of what to do next. A great movie. I hope this helped! :)

I watched this movie with my best friend Kaitlin, and we simply found it amusing and cool. We, as tweens/teens xan, relate to the popular cliques, and their actions, and how they act about clothes, makeup, and boys. It is a very good movie for teens and tweens in middle school, because it is highly relatable, though some bad words and slightly bad messages are sent, their hardly noticible.

It's a really fun movie that teaches kids to be nice. I loved it!

it is a great book with suspense. i can not really explain it. the clique is just a book for fun! not a boring book like the kind the teachers pick. so i encourage tween and teen girls to read this great book. i suggest to not act like massie. she only acts like this because she is insecure! be proud and happy. you will be like claire. i loved this amazing book. it was excellent! P.S. i cant write from the spot. oopsie. *blush blush*

I personally love the movie and books a lot!!!!! I would recommened it only for a kid who is sick at home and wants to watch a good movie :)
