...magazine with her former nemesis as her right-hand woman. This Jenna (“Alias” star Jennifer Garner) is her adolescent worst nightmare—a cheating, backstabbing, lying bitch.

Included are all the necessary ingredients: the loser who might look vaguely attractive if he got a haircut and an Urban Outfitters gift certificate, his nerdier, uglier friends and the gorgeous blond that saves them from an eternity in A/V club purgatory. But in this particular film, that life-saving blond is an ex-porn star. The loser in question is Matthew Kidman, played by newcomer Emile Hirsh, who falls in love with his neighbor, Danielle...
