Strike!Teenagers aren't allowed to vote in federal elections because they always select: D) All of the Above Candidates.Luckily, the ladies in this comedy are more astute than their contemporaries.To keep her away from her boyfriend (Matthew Lawrence), Odie (Gaby Hoffmann) is sent to an all-girls school where she aligns herself with the less reputable students (Kirsten Dunst, Monica Keena, Heather Matarazzo, Merritt Wever).When it's announced that the school will amalgamate with the boys' academy, the girls set out to stop the merger by demanding that the board of trustees allow them to vote on the co-ed matter.Also known as All I Want To Do, this subliminal salute to the suffrage movement isn't as superficial, flippant or as badly acted as most of the Girl Power movies from the late nineties.Moreover, the only thing that girls learn at a co-ed school is where to buy Plan B.Green Lightvidiotreviews.blogspot.ca

I LOVE THIS FILM! its a classic, i cannot belive it isn't more popular, i was bored one day when i was about 11 and ever since i've loved it, but i cannot seem to find anywhere 2 buy it??? Can anyone help me?It's great because its a completely gross film, it adresses the issue of sex adn has people who are now well established as stars! i.e Kirsten Dunst and Racheal Leigh Cook.The plot is great, an all powerful girls comedy although it has parts that appeal to males as well. For once women aren't being shown as pathetic and weedy within society!GREAT FILM!"

Without saying this is a great girlie flick, "All I Wanna Do!" (or Strike! in Canada) is good in many parts, as it shows girls wanted to keep their school "as is" instead of turning as "co-ed". In 1964, the World was changing, so's the habits. Even if girls are crazy about boys, they have a secret place to blossom themselves. The Goddard School for Girls is the place, but economical reasons want to turn it into a co-ed school to make ends meet. To keep parents and directors for taking that decisions, the Daughters of the American Ravioli will do everything so their school remains an "all girl" only institution.At least you can have a good time here, Mostly if you are fan of Kirsten Dunst or Rachael Leigh Cook. For the rest, it's colorful, plain light, you don't get bored...*spoiler* Spot Hayden Christensen in a rather embarrassing situation !

***SPOILERS*** ***SPOILERS*** This was a really fun movie! Kirsten Dunst was great, and completely believable in her role as a mischief-making girl in the '60s. It wasn't the funniest movie I've ever seen (not by a long shot) but there were some parts that made me laugh out loud. The actor who played "Frosty Frost", as Kirsten Dunst's character nicknames him, was cute, as was Shawn Ashmore as the photographer. I also ADORED Monica Keena! The one bad part: how Monica's character turned out to be lesbian, after being being boy-crazy the whole movie. All in all, though, this is one of my very favorite movies. Rent it sometime!
