One of the best movies ever., 4 November 2001
Author: famousgir1 from London, England

After her father dies, Mackie and her mum move to a new town. Things are going quite well and Mackie makes some new friends, including a young girl named Jenny. What Mackie really wants though is to join a certain gang, who also have there own band. The only problem is, the gang who are made up of three boys, have a rule. No girls allowed. So, Mackie comes up with a strange plan, she pretends to be a boy, in order to hang out with them. After a while though things begin to backfire.

The Challengers is a wonderful movie which is a must-see for everyone. It's one of my all time favourites. It features a wonderful cast and some lovely music. I give this brilliant movie a 10/10.
