"A very funny movie!" - Roger Ebert, Roger Ebert & theiMovies
This candy-box colored comedy of sexual discovery chronicles the life of Megan (Natasha Lyonne) a typical teenager coming of age in anything but a typical fashion. Megan's super normal suburban existence is filled with friends, pom-poms and rah-rah enthusiasm until her straight-laced parents (Mink Stole and Bud Cort) suspect that their "little poodle" may, in fact be showing deviant tendencies. In a complete panic, Megan's parents elicit the help of her friends and the guidance of a rehabilitation camp to mount an all-out intervention. Mike (an out-of-drag RuPaul Charles), a True Directions counselor, leads the intervention and before Megan can pack her pom-poms she is whisked off to learn how to be a perfect woman.
True Directions is run under the strict, all-seeing eyes of the sadistic Mary (Cathy Moriarty). Megan dutifully gets with the deprogramming so she can quickly return to her life of boyfriends, football games, and her absolute favorite activity - cheerleading. Everything seems perfect, but the fun begins when her hormones start to rage, and her friends and family wonder where she'll find love!

Rah, Rah...Rah? - 3.5 out of 5 (1/11/2005)
A quirky coming of age type comedy, this film focuses on the almost super normal life of Megan. She is a cheerleader, dates the captain of the football team, and is...homosexual? Her parents think she may just be sexually confused, and a little nudge in the right direction might help. They send Megan off to a "homosexual anonymous" treatment facility where confused teens are deprogrammed and put on the right path. Full of lots of laughs, we end up cheering for the cheerleader in the end. Imagine
