But I'm A Cheerleader (1999) ***1/2

But I'm A Cheerleader (1999) is a cute and campy conversion comedy that playfully satirizes gender roles and heteronormativity. It's got a great cast, a cool score, and fun, vibrant production design to reflect the themes. It's fairly predictable, a little sappy (not terribly so), and I didn't flat-out love it, but I understand its appeal and why it's a cult film. I did really enjoy it and I would definitely watch it again. Recommended for fans of John Waters and Psycho Beach Party (2000) (my review here).
