But I'm A Cheerleader - Director's Cut (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 soundtrack, and fun, vibrant production design (which really pops on the 4K UHD) to reflect the themes. It's fairly predictable and at times sappy, but it's a charming, sweet, and funny cult film with a message to be true to your self.

Recommended for fans of Heathers (1988) (review), Clueless (1995) (review), and Psycho Beach Party (2000) (review).
