THE MOVIE<\/strong>
\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Plot Outline: <\/strong>In the final days of her senior year, Mandy Meyers (GIA MANTEGNA) is forced to change high schools when her father\u2019s business moves the family from Washington D.C. to Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

Mandy sees her new high school as a chance to start fresh, have some fun, and try things she\u2019s never done before. On her first day, McDermott High\u2019s two prettiest yet cruelest seniors (ELIZABETH NICOLE, INBAR LAVI) befriend Mandy and attempt to show her the wild side of Southern California high school life.<\/p>\n

Likewise, the entire male senior class has also taken notice of Mandy, and she\u2019s soon being chased by both an apathetic, yet charismatic, stoner (ESCHER HOLLOWAY) and a star football player (DANIEL BOOKO).<\/p>\n

VIDEO \u2013 3.0\/5 | AUDIO \u2013 3.5\/5
\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Getting That Girl<\/em><\/strong> arrives on DVD with an anamorphic widescreen transfer showing off some decent colors and the normal amount of heavy grain and noise one would expect from a SD release.<\/p>\n

The disc includes a standard, and satisfactory, Dolby Digital 5.1 track.

OVERALL \u2013 3.0\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Overall, Getting That Girl<\/em><\/strong> isn\u2019t the greatest rom-com but the cast are all well cast, highlighted by Gia Mantegna, and work well with one another even if the script delves into high school clich\u00e9 territory. The DVD release offers a solo BTS featurette and adequate if not average audio and video transfers.<\/p>\n
