The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

It is an all around solidly entertaining movie. I do like the clever intertwining of the play plot,"A Midsummer Night's Dream" with the movie about high school students doing the play. The songs in the movie really help to set up scenes through out the movie. The opening song really gets one into the mood of the entire movie. The climatic play towards the end of the movie is worth the wait. Kristin Dunst does a great job singing "her" love song in the play. Ben Foster is a gem in the movie and I will be looking for him in any future roles. I really liked how the love triangle played itself out during the play. I believe this movie was quite cleverly done and would whole heartily recommend it to anyone.

it thought the first half of this film was pretty good.instead of being your standard teen romantic comedy,it actually had some slapstick thrown in,some of which was quite amusing.to me,that was kinda different for this genre.at least it was something i hadn't seen before.not that that means anything.and the movie also had a bit of a musical bent to it,which i liked.sure,most of the movie is fairly predictable.but then most movies are,at least to a point.anyway,the movie moves along fairly well for the first 45 minutes or so.but then it gets really bogged down.you kinda know how things are gonna end up,but it seemed to take forever to get there.as a result,i just wanted it to finally end.for me,because of the slow(and to me,boring)second half, i can only give Get Over It a 5/10

I have rated this film high considering it is a run of the mill teenage flick. But I have reasons.The plot is fairly predictable and the characters two dimensional and there are no special effects or nudity or violence or anything truly note worthy at all. This is one of the two reasons I love this film. It doesn't try too hard to connect with some bizarre demographic of American youth or try to be overly funny or pound you relentlessly with some obscure social issue for you to add to the list of things you should feel guilty about. It is what Hollywood does best, a good old fashioned shallow love story where rich middle class teenagers follow their hearts in a squeaky clean high school that only exist in the movies. As an English horror/sc-fi/war movie fan it is great to switch off now and then to visit a place where jocks learn to respect nerds, extra curriculum activities are viewed as cool, and everyone has such wonderful teeth. A place where the biggest danger to your life is not being asked to the prom. I wish could have gone there. Also the opening sequence is one of the best crafted pieces of film that exist. Yes it is right up their with Apocalypse Now and the Cross of Iron! Not as dramatic but perfect, from the look on the boys face to the deliciously ironic sound track to the plethora of insanely happy-in-love people filling the back ground.Performances are what you would expect from this cast of seasoned pro's. Sound track is great (look out for love-scud)and the film has that lovely Hollywood glossy production to it.For a great little, bloodshed free, feel-good, keep-the-misus-happy film you cannot go far wrong from spending a fiver on this.

Hilarious movie and I laugh Every time I see it. It just never gets boring. Alright so it hasn't got the greatest dialogue and is a bit thin in places but you cant beat it for fun laughs and making you feel good! the whole premise is the old story of losing the love of your life and trying anything to win her back but in doing this our hapless youth falls for his best mates sister without even knowing it and what ensues is a mix of laughs, tears and a dog humping anything that moves.....or doesn't! Really didn't think i was going to enjoy this film but i was pleasantly surprised by it. Top drawer movie and a must see, if only for Martin short's portrayal of a slightly unhinged stage director! Thought I would hate it but loved it, give it a go!
