America's sweetheart Amanda Bynes stars in the fun comedy Sydney White! When tomboy Sydney (Bynes) is banished from the most popular sorority on campus, she is taken in by seven socially challenged but endearing guys. With the help of her new friends, Sydney stands up for outcasts everywhere and takes on the reigning campus queen in a popularity showdown! But can she succeed and also win the heart of gorgeous frat guy Tyler Prince? You'll love this hilarious and sweet age-old story with a charming modern-day twist!
From Amazon.com:
Entering College is a time of great transition, but Sydney White (Amanda Bynes) is secure in her plan to follow in her late-mother's footsteps and pledge Kappa Phi Nu sorority when she arrives at Southern Atlantic University. Raised by a plumber father and a host of other construction workers, the comic book collection toting Sydney is definitely her own unique person and has some decidedly tomboy tendencies that contrast starkly with the ditzy, superficial girls she meets at her first sorority function. Sorority leader and student council president Rachel (Sara Paxton) takes an instant dislike to Sydney and vows to make her rushing experience intolerable. Only Tyler (Mat Long), a member of one of the campus fraternities, seems to see and appreciate the real Sydney. After weeks of hazing abuse, Rachel declares Sydney unfit to join the sorority and a despondent Sydney joins seven misfit boys in a soon-to-be-condemned house on Greek Row known as the Vortex. Fueled by the desire for revenge and a newly discovered sense of respect and belonging thanks to her new roommates, Sydney decides to fight back against the snobbery of the Greek elite and champion the rights of all misfits on campus by running against Rachel for Student Council President. By rallying the support of interest groups and misfits campus-wide, it appears that Sydney might just have a chance of winning. This film begins with an almost gag-inducing portrayal of sorority snobbery at its worst and soon gives way to a hysterically comic look at the under-representation of the masses in collegiate society. The satirical parallel to Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is heavy (this is the story of "Sydney White and the Seven Dorks" complete with Sneezy, Sleepy, and Doc) and the portrayal of interest groups on college campuses is farcical to the extreme. All in all, Sydney White is hysterically funny and surprisingly appealing to audiences of both genders and a wide age range. Rated PG-13 for some language, sexual humor, and partying. --Tami Horiuchi

Sydney White DVD Review |
|
. . . Who's the HOTTEST on the SAU campus? Why, it's the evil Rachel WITCHburn, student council president and sorority ho from below. That is until the fair Sydney White comes along and catches the eye of Witchburn's former boyfriend, Tyler Prince (Charming). The witch does everything she can to squash Ms. White; however, she underestimates the Power of Seven, when White takes up with the seven dorks in the quaint little house at the end of Greek Row.
Sydney White, a beautiful, motherless misfit is immediately winning as portrayed by Amanda Bynes, as she attempts to knock the Witch (Sara Paxton) off her elite throne in this good vs. evil tale. It's a clever and entertaining parallel to the fairytale Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. View it with your daughters, who will recognize and love the stars (and the music) and then take the time to point out all the Snow White references to one another. It was my younger daughter who pointed out the poisoned (i.e. hacked) Apple, which resulted in a deep sleep for White . . . but I recognized the kiss from Prince that brought her back. See it for yourself and have fun tagging all the seven dork/dwarfs. A little cheesy, but ultimately entertaining for moms and daughters, and even dads who once got a kick out of movies like National Lampoon's Animal House and Revenge of the Nerds - Panty Raid Edition Michele Cozzens is the author of It's Not Your Mother's Bridge Club. |

Wonderful film. Classic Amanda Bynes humor. Predictable storyline, but a fun, relaxing film to watch and have a good laugh. Gives a humorous view of events a college freshman might run into and shows how to come out successfully. |

Sydney White DVD Review |

Sydney White is a 2007 revamped and dorkified version of the classic fairy-tale Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
Of course in this tale Snow White is named Sydney(Amanda Bynes) and she's on a mission to join her deceased mother's sorority, which is a far cry for a girl such as herself; being raised by all men construction workers with a love of comic books. When the evil witch of the Kappas' Rachel Witchburn(Sara Paxton) deems Sydney 'non-kappa material' for flirting with her ex-boyfriend and Beta president Tyler(Matt Long) she sends her in the directions of the Vortex, the home of the seven dorks. When Sydney learns that her mother's group of friends may not be the only answer to find happiness, everything begins to fall into place. It was an interesting thought for a classic story, but even Amanda Bynes couldn't save this script. I mean the poisoned apple computer and the kiss to awake Sidney in the library were a bit too much, even for me. It's cute but no classic. |

Sydney White DVD Review |

What are you people smoking here?! This must have been Amanda Bynes last role in fulfillment of a contract; either that, or she's got a really bad director, because this movie is as unfocused as she is. I was going to say untalented as well, but in the right part she actually has a two-dimensional appeal; only this isn't it.
It's billed as a re-telling of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, but that's an insult to the Brothers Grimm. This "D" list movie doesn't even have the class of Kathy Griffin. Like Danny Strong's "Gurkin" says at the end of Act Two "Things are looking grim brothers," and a truer word was never spoken. I just wish that it had come at the start of the movie and spared me the hour forty-eight that I wasted watching it. |
