It was allright, funny at times, the story is quite boring though. If you've seen Revenge of the Nerds, all the way down to the line "I'm in love with a nerd/dork", then you've seen this movie already.
Sydney White has grown up amongst construction workers ever since her mother... read more -

The story line is similar to "Snow White and the seven dwarfs". What irritates me is when people watch a girl like she's goddess or something but this girl is no near that kinda part. They should have picked someone more beautiful similar to Snow White. The story was okay. You ca... read more

The movie "Sydney White" is a pretty good version of the tomboy-not-fitting-in-but-is-an-outstanding-person movie. After being kicked out of her sorority, Sydney takes up with seven losers - ala Snow White and the seven dwarfs. Of course in this fairy tale, Sydney defeats the s... read more

Typical tween college comedy where the big lesson is to be yourself and accept others. Clichéd characters and predictable situations ensue. Luckily the Snow White twists add some harmless fun and the good nature makes it a very good family film. The real success lies in the cast... read more

Tell me if this sounds familiar. A kind-hearted outsider comes to a college or high school and leads a group of misfits to victory over the stuck-up, popular kids. This is the exact plot of tons of movies, including Sydney White.
The writers of the movie tried to add some uniqu... read more -

Pretty much what I expected from it. Amanda Bynes is not as annoying as I thought and, this movie, although not particularly intelligent, can be quite entertaining. I'm kinda upset about the dearth of goodlooking people though...because they had to cast people uglier than Amanda ... read more

Interesting take on Snow White that is funny and charming, despite being predictable and cliched in the extreme. This would get a lower rating if I didn't like Amanda Bynes.
Critic Reviews
A perky and chaste Y.A. update on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Full Review
One of the dopiest, goofiest, and yes, I guess you can say, sneezy-ist and sleepy-ist, movies of the year.
...should satisfy Bynes fans looking for a pleasant, innocuous follow-up to her last vehicle. Full Review
Ms. Bynes, with her cherubic face, expressive eyes and comic timing, helps create a positive, pleasing diversion that caters to the geek in all of us.
Sydney White's message of embracing all kinds of people and not quaking in fear of the elite and popular is a sound one, but each twist and turn is so telegraphed and expected that the story feels wan... Full Review
How hard could it be to make a clever parody of Snow White? Very hard, apparently. Full Review
Part fairy tale, part college comedy, totally unoriginal and a tad offensive, Sydney White stars Amanda Bynes as a new student who starts a rebellion against the school's oppressive Greek establishment. Full Review
Snow White joins a sorority and gets some Revenge of the Nerds friends in Sydney White, a cute comedy for girls. Full Review
On television, Amanda Bynes' tendency toward slapstick can come across as sitcom-cute. Blown up on the big screen, it's the equivalent of a hammer hitting you over the head. For 90 minutes. In surroun... Full Review
