Mean Girls meets Miss Congeniality, ladies and gentlemen, we now have our early frontrunner for worst movie of 2011. Combing the holy trifecta of bad decision making, this future bomb has shoddy acting, a terrible premise and an even worse title. Ready for it? So Undercover. Yes, that’s right. Exclusive Films just agreed to fully finance a movie called So Undercover. And MGM is the one in Chapter 11?
According to Deadline, the new film will star Miley Cyrus as a rough and tumble FBI Agent who goes undercover, excuse me, so undercover into a sorority house for reasons to be revealed later. Now, I’m fully aware I’ve already given you a lot of reasons to preemptively award this film two middle fingers, but let me heap a few more on top of the pile. First, the film is being produced by a company called Hope Town that’s apparently owned by Miley Cyrus. Second, it’s called So Undercover, and worst of all, the co-chairman of the company, in his press release promoting the film, hyped it by saying Cyrus is “the biggest female brand in the world.” He referred to his own lead actress as a brand! Talk about unintentional honesty.
Mean Girls was about a nice girl, played by a real life mean girl, pretending to be mean until she decided she’d rather be nice. So Undercover is about an FBI agent, played by a wannabe sorority girl, who pretends to be a wannabe sorority girl. See, it worked forMean Girls because at the time most of us didn’t know Lindsay Lohan was Rosemary’s baby, but now the whore’s out of the bag, and even though I still love the movie, it feels a little more sad. So Undercover is like making Mean Girls today with current Lindsay Lohan as the innocent, sheltered home school girl who just wants everyone to get along. But hey, whatever’s best for the brand, right?
