This was a terrible movie...I don't even know how I ended up watching this. A terrible TV Movie. It had horrible acting, and I used to like Piper Parabo. 2 Thumbs down.

Kinda dumb but kinda fun too. I loved the Starla character, she kinda got what she deserved at first. Cheesy fun.

(read more) She Gets What She Wants, also known as Slap Her...She's French! is a comedic tale that brings the valley girl persona of Clueless to Texas. Starla Grady (Jane McGregor) plays a young girl in high school ready to take on the world to become a world renowned news anchor, but to remain a local high school anchor, as well as head cheerleader, she has to pass her French class. She decides to participate in a French foreign exchange student program, which lands Genevieve Le Plouff (Piper Perabo) in Texas. But the more Genevieve helps, the worse off Starla becomes. Perhaps there is more to Genevieve than meets the eye?

Piper and Jane excel in their roles as catty teens, yet, the final premise is a bit silly. For the most part, the film is standard fair of the genre, but the leading and supporting lady make this film stand out, for me. There are also some funny sub-stories, such as potentially lesbian best friends, and the somewhat overplayed braniac younger brother. With that said, the film is not extremely deep or mysterious, but it is a fun comedy most will enjoy, as a stereotype of the rich American blonde.

Should've kept the original title "Slap Her, She's French." Typical over the top cheesy high school movie. But it's worth a look.

The other title was better- "Slap Her- She's French." Another victim of a memorable title made completely innocuous. Too bad...

I hate this title...this movie will always will be "Slap Her, She's French" to me. The movie is cornball fluff, but okay enough for a rental on a day with nothing else to do.

Very cute hard to find flick staring Piper Perabo (YAY!) showing the hilarity in what happens when a close-minded conservative southern family meets an adorable french girl. :)
