About Odd Girl Out

Some think of their early school years as their "glory days," but for many teen girls it's a time of psychological warfare filled with backstabbing, jealousy and phoniness — and that's among your closest friends. Welcome to the world of Vanessa, a well-liked girl who suddenly finds herself in the popular crowd's line of fire. Vanessa has always been best buds with queen bee Stacey. But when a petty tiff escalates between the two, Stacey and her posse viciously turn on Vanessa. Barbara, Vanessa's mom, struggles to help her daughter evolve from outcast to survivor. ... More

I would LOVE to own this particular movie so that I could show it to my daughter! I too was in Vanessa's shoes. I could feel her pain! Now, as an adult looking back I should of handled my situation differently. I lived through it! When the same type of situation happened to my daughter I went to the principal, when nothing was done, I changed her schools!

I recorded this movie when it first aired on LMN, back in '05. I literally remember being sad and hurting for Vanessa's character. The bad part about it is that Stacey and her "crew" turned on Vanessa for NO REASON at all! All because that boy was showing interest in her??! Whooo!! BIG DEAL!! What I didn't like is when Vanessa lied and defended Stacy about that paper. I would've just gone ahead and told the truth and then maybe some of that other stuff could have been avoided. But it's sad that junior high/high school has turned into a environment where kids/young adults are being tortured and bullied! KIDS ARE LITERALLY TAKING THEIR LIVES!! "*WORDS DO HURT!*"

I love this movie. Everytime i watch it it makes me think of my life, and how i can relate. Yet again, i love how they would make a movie about whats really going on these days, i mean, this is how girls are really being treated; its not fake.

Does anyone know the artist and title of the song that starts playing at 45m 46s into the movie when Vanessa's mother drops her off at school, and she gets mad and slams the car door? I have been trying to find the song, sounds like hard rock or heavy metal.

At first I thought this would be one of those LM that I love, but it's not! Though I love Alexa Vega, the acting seems cheesy and the whole film just made me mad. The story is a good one to tell, but the movie just didn't appeal to me. I couldn't seem to sympathize with Alexa's character so I wasn't able to get into the film. It was a nice try, but could've been better-made.

I have seen this movie many times. I seen it when I was a sophamore in high school. Sadly, this movie deffinitly shows how teen girls treat each other in high school now days. I know exactly how Vanessa feels in this movie because I have had this kind of harrasment happen to me. All I have to say to any teenager reading this, if anything like this movie ever happens to you, TELL someone!!! Thats the best thing you can do.

Most of that movie was very sad, but it is one of the best movies on here, Im almost at that age and I am very scared about what might happen when I get there. I saw most of it and it was pretty good!

I haven't been a teen for 12 years but I remember what being picked on by c***s was like. Not as bad as Vanessa; but it started when I was in grade school, off and on.
It's good now that with computers these girls can have some proof of what was happening; in the 90's, it was our word against theirs and nothing ever got better or resolved.

This was an outstanding movie! It reminded me of all the snot nosed, bratty kids I went to school with who had to tear somebody down to build themselves up! Going thru teen years is very complicated even without all the abuse they throw at you. That abuse can stick with a person for many years.

As a mother I truly feel for Vanessa as if she were my own daughter. This is not something new. It was happening when I was in high school as well. It's so hard to stand up for yourself when all the animals in the pack are nipping at your heels. And sadly, there have been girls, and boys too, that ended their lives rather than face the horrible ridicule that can occur among mean spirited kids today. This was a great movie, and I used several tissues for the tears as i had been a Vanessa too. And bravo for the ending as she finally stood up and said, "No more you ****!" lol
