This movie really f****ng sucks. Growing up, I was a rabid fan of Archie comics, and this movie just didn't do it justice. It took the fun and liveliness of the comics and turned it into a boring, ridiculous, embarassing failure. Lauren Holly (playing Betty) is probably cowering in shame that anyone has seen her in this!
Anyway, the girls are sexually obsessed with Archie, who can't make up his mind. Reggie and Mr. Lodge are trying to close down the Choklit Shoppe, where things become totally unrealistic. Reggie, in my opinion, though scum, would never try to close down his favorite childhood hangout. Also, Mr. Lodge tries to "take out" Archie with cut brakelines and a bomb. In the books, Mr. Lodge was only annoyed by Archie, not out to plant him 6 feet under.
This may be a bit of shock to people (so make small children leave the room) they even corrupted the Archies superhit "Sugar, Sugar" by having Jughead and his son turn into a disgusting rap number. Also, for more unbelievable fun, Big Ethel turns out to be supermodel. As anyone who has read the comics knows, Ethel was the female version of Jughead.
Anyway, don't bother seeing the movie unless you hate the Archie gang. THen, you'll love it.
