St. Trinian's, the infamous school for 'young ladies', is in trouble. Despite being an old flame of its Headmistress, the new Education Minister is shaking things up and the school is facing financial ruin. But the students of St Trinian's aren't going to give up without a fight. After all, they excel at chaos and attitude not chemistry and algebra and that's exactly what it's going to take to beat the authorities before they close down their beloved school for good.

At first glance, a well cast film full of very pretty (almost beautiful) girls and women and likeable charismatic men who I know can be funny. On the face of it, the second not-so-funny creation with the unbearably awkward Rupert Everett as the school principal, a thousand jokes, of which about 990 are completely stupid, and the bland Colin Firth. While I actually think the pros slightly outweigh the cons (the biggest surprise was Russell Brand, who perhaps for the first time really amused me), I'm rather disappointed. Two and a half stars.
