The directorial debut of Australian filmmaker
Francine McDougall, this teen comedy stars
Marley Shelton as Diane, captain of the Lincoln High School A-squad cheerleaders, the most popular girls in their school. They include born-again Christian Hannah (
Rachel Blanchard), the rebellious Kansas (
Mena Suvari), late-night talk show fan Cleo (
Melissa George), and brainy geek Lucy (
Sarah Marsh). When Diane learns that she's pregnant, she and her stud quarterback boyfriend Jack (
James Marsden) get hitched and quickly learn that marriage with children is an expensive proposition. With some advice from Kansas' convict mom (
Sean Young), the squad embarks on a plan to rob a bank, but their peppy enthusiasm and patented cheerleading moves may give them away to the authorities.
