Did you know
- TriviaFilmed at the same high school as Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997). Sarah Michelle Gellar, who plays Buffy in the series and who co-starred with Freddie Prinze Jr. in I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997), has a small, non-speaking cameo. The same high school was used in Not Another Teen Movie (2001) that parodied this movie, in some cases line by line. Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze, Jr. later got married.
- GoofsWhen Taylor is walking with her friends she talks about being prom queen but during this "speech" her mouth does not match what she is saying.

Featured review
"I feel just like Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman. You know, except for the whole hooker thing."
Silly but fun teen romantic comedy about a high school jock (Freddie Prinze, Jr.) who bets his friend (Paul Walker) that he can turn a geek (Rachael Leigh Cook) into the prom queen. Flimsy updating of Pygmalion is hard to hate. It doesn't take itself seriously in the least. Yeah it's absolutely ridiculous that Rachael Leigh Cook, an exceptionally pretty girl, would be considered unattractive just because she wears glasses and overalls. But you just roll with it because it's cute and fun. The cast is very likable and the script is good for this type of movie. Matthew Lillard steals pretty much every scene he's in. It's fluff but you'll be smiling when it's over. Can't see the harm in that.
