In the summer before starting high school, Julie (Alexa Vega) and her best friends, Hannah (Mika Boorem), Yancy (Kallie Flynn Childress) and Farrah (Scout Taylor-Compton), have a slumber party. They decide they're going to use the night to shed their nerdy reputations, and they end up in a scavenger hunt against a group of popular girls. To win, Julie and her friends have to steal a car and a boy's underpants and sneak into a nightclub, all without Julie's mom (Jane Lynch) finding out.

Critics Consensus

'Tween girls will enjoy this sugar coated fluff, but others will find Sleepover a snooze.

David Germain

Associated Press

Sleepover objectifies early teenage girls in a manner that's disagreeable and indelicate at best, cheap and vulgar at worst.

Not for younger kids, despite its PG rating.

Little more than a hurried photocopy of the far superior Lindsay Lohan vehicle Mean Girls.

Film Frenzy

Utterly harmless but also utterly forgettable, Sleepover is only fascinating when it comes to poring over its cast list years down the road: Steve Carell, Brie Larson, and more.

Rated: 2/4

Had me near tears. Not good tears, but painful tears.

Too edgy for kids and too juvenile for teens, Sleepover will appeal to no one en route to a forgettable experience.

I mean it wasnt terrible but I find the age gaps a little concerning? I diddnt grow up in america so I dont know the school system but as a 15 year old girl myself I think it's kinda weird because that dude looks alot older? Also what's with the name Yancy? The redhead was literally nowhere to be seen half the time and it's so unrealistic like theres no way the dad was oblivious to the whole situation, also how did they just climb into those boxes like surely they would've shut it from the outside not just let it swing open anytime, I think I'm overthinking this but still, maybe I'm being to judgemental and it's just a alright film about being a tween 🤷‍♀️, I will say I cried at the end because I had to move across the country away from my bestfriend not to long ago so I know what it's like and it's not easy.

It was so average it's not even worth writing this almost. The acting is passable. Alexa unfortunately is not a very good actress but she is lucky everyone else around her is at least average and makes her better. When she is by herself she isn't that good. Most of the characters are generic and forgettable with jokes that fall flat. The cinematography is just ok along with a generic mid 2000's dated soundtrack. The editing & pacing are just ok also as nothing really lingers and it moves quick but never builds investment. This is so bland it isn't worth watching almost unless you grew up with it for nostalgia. Besides that skip this.
