It made about 10 times its budget, but middling reviews (41% on Rotten Tomatoes) and a lukewarm 6.3 out of 10 from audiences held it back. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

High school hotshot Zach Siler is the envy of his peers. But his popularity declines sharply when his cheerleader girlfriend, Taylor, leaves him for sleazy reality-television star Brock Hudson. Desperate to revive his fading reputation, Siler agrees to a seemingly impossible challenge. He has six weeks to gain the trust of nerdy outcast Laney Boggs -- and help her to become the school's next prom queen.
