The breakdown:
A good teenage girl helps out a friend and ends up starting a bad rumor about herself that gets way out of control.

Overall, I wasn't expecting much of this movie, but it was cute.
The good girl in high school who isn't noticed much by anyone tells a little lie to her friend in the girl's bathroom that is overheard by the religious nut of the school.  It is then passed around and all of a sudden the good girl has a bad reputation for sleeping with just about everyone.
The good girl continues to lie for guys that need help with ladies by saying she slept with them, but the lies get her into trouble, and become completely unmanageable.
It was funny at parts, and cute at others.


I give it a 3 1/2 out of 5 for loosely being based on The Scarlet Letter (which I had to read in high school) being funny more times then I expected, and having some sweet romantic moments tucked in.
