Critics Consensus

Shakespeare's wit gets lost in translation with She's the Man's broad slapstick, predictable jokes, and unconvincing plotline.

She's the Man may exaggerate in many departments, including toxic masculinity, but the film expertly looks at gender roles long before the world caught on. Go to Full Review

TheMovieSearch R @TheMovieSearch 1d She’s the Man starring Amanda Bynes and Channing Tatum is a delightfully funny and clever teen comedy that expertly leans into the classic cross-dressing trope. Amanda Bynes delivers a standout performance as Viola, who disguises herself as her brother Sebastian to play soccer, and her comedic timing is impeccable. Channing Tatum complements her perfectly, with their on-screen chemistry creating genuine laughs and heartwarming moments. The director does a solid job of developing the ensemble cast, ensuring each character feels distinct and contributes to the story’s humor and charm. The screenplay isn’t flawless—it has predictable moments and occasional pacing issues—but it balances witty dialogue, physical comedy, and heartfelt beats effectively. The gender-bending element is handled lightly and amusingly, echoing films like Mrs. Doubtfire without feeling outdated or uncomfortable. Overall, the film is entertaining, rewatchable, and succeeds as a smart, lighthearted teen comedy.

Acting is decent enough and the story will keep you smiling throughout! See more Jeremy S. @JJSTEVENS Aug 16 Not funny and the premise is that Amanda Bynes turns into a man to play soccer. Everyone in this movie believes her but there’s no Adam’s Apple. See more Tom G Jul 28 Is she the man? Is she really?
