St. Andrew’s Girls

St. Andrew's GirlsImagine The Breakfast Club recast with Catholic schoolgirl approximations of the "Sex and the City" gals and one might gain the vaguest notion of where this decidedly dark comedy aims.

There’s the kind-hearted hussy (Alice Frank), the gratuitous goth spaz (Wendy Walker), the princess secretly angling to become an asian crime boss (Vanni Nguyen) and the new girl with a teeny-tiny secret gestating inside her (Malindi Fickle). Punch lines range from sexually-induced stigmata, bullet-to-the-brainpan suicide to ditching detention by fellating a horndog teach just so the girls can go play video games. Har. Har.

Might’ve scored without the sentimental landmines and the bazillionth usage of "Truth or Dare" as an expositional crutch.
