Editorial Review: Description: In this hilarious, heartwarming comedy, Drew Barrymore shines as a budding journalist who's determined to go from 'geek' to 'chic' when she is sent back to high school on her first undercover assignment to lern about today's teens. At first, Josie is thrilled with the opportunity until she remembers her nickname from years ago: "Josie Grossie!" Can a former clueless nerd navigate the hallways of high school without trippin over her own feet? Amazon.com: Let's get this straight: Drew Barrymore started a production company to develop original scripts outside of Hollywood and the first project she chose to produce was this, a romantic comedy written by USC grads Abby Kohn and Mark Silverstein about a nerdy, virginal woman who returns to high school as an undercover reporter, finally gets to be popular, and falls in love. And Barrymore decided, as producer, that the perfect actress to play this virtuous, clean-cut, and downright annoying geek would be... Drew Barrymore? It's hard to believe that after The Wedding Singer Barrymore's not getting enough dopey, formulaic, predictable romantic comedies coming across her desk. The complete inability to buy Barrymore as unattractive, awkward, and unpopular ruins Never Been Kissed from the start, but it's doubtful a better actress could have saved it. The jokes fall flat, the romance between Barrymore and her English teacher (played by Michael Vartan) lacks chemistry, and the portrayals of high school and the newspaper newsroom is clichéd and uninspired (big surprise here: the director, Raja Gosnell, previously made Home Alone 3). Gosnell can't even give the gifted character actor, John C. Reilly, anything to do. Only David Arquette, who plays Barrymore's out-of-control brother, brings any energy to the film. --Dave McCoy Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - A complete joyThis review is from my wife Sarah: Never Been Kissed is one of my all time favorites. Drew Barrymore is absolutely believable and lovable as an intelligent but seriously geeky 25 year old writer who goes undercover as a high school student. In the course of looking for her story she must break into the "popular" click, but that's tough because inside she's still the same geek that she always was. In this process she finds her healing and dignity. Her under-acheiving brother steps in to help her, ...

I won't sell it now - though I want to, because it's not in great shape. Rating: - AdorableThis is not a serious movie. It's cute, adorable, and innocent. Drew Barrymore at her best. This movie introduces us to Michael Vartan. What a babe. If you want to see another side of Jessica Alba, you should rent this. So many funny comedian and actors/actresses in this small little movie. I loved it and I'm not afraid to say that I am in my late 30's. Rating: - Just Plain Fun!This is a very cute romantic comedy starring Drew Barrymore. A former nerd is forced to go back to highschool as an undercover reporter and relive the traumas of her youth. Predictably, she discovers more about herself than she does about any story and along the way she finds love in a most unexpected place. This movie isn't too deep or that thought provoking, but it is a modern day 'fairy tale' with a happy ending that will leave you feeling good. Recommended for anyone that enjoys romantic ...
