Labor Pains, starring Lindsay Lohan and directed by Lara Shapiro, is a lighthearted and funny comedy about how far someone will go to keep their job. As Thea, Lohan delivers a charming performance as a young woman who fakes a pregnancy to avoid being fired — a lie that spirals hilariously as she begins to enjoy the perks. The film offers absurd and comedic situations while exploring workplace pressure, female empowerment, and self-discovery. A great pick for fans of romantic comedies with a satirical edge and a bold lead character.
One of the most famous and creative teen movies of the 2000s. Based on the book 'Queen Bees & Wannabes' by Rosalind Wiseman, this is a comedy that doesn't lose its originality, standing out from other feature films with the same theme. Still, you can see a slight inspiration from 'Fatal Attraction', an 80's teen black humor movie with Winona Ryder. 'Mean Girls' was released in 2004 and is still highly praised by critics, and a good example of how a teen movie can be critical, mature, and creative!
Our Little Secret is another Christmas romantic comedy from Netflix -- that never seems to end, but that always gets attention and really entertains. Here, the plot is fun from the beginning: after discovering that their romantic partners are brothers, an ex-couple who hates each other needs to spend Christmas under the same roof and hide the fact that they were once lovers. With Lindsay Lohan and Ian Harding, the feature film manages to make you laugh while we get into a genuine Christmas atmosphere.
