In this hilarious, heartwarming comedy, Drew Barrymore shines as a budding journalist who's determined to go from 'geek' to 'chic' when she is sent back to high school on her first undercover assignment to learn about today's teens. At first, Josie is thrilled with the opportunity until she remembers her nickname from years ago: "Josie Grossie!" Can a former clueless nerd navigate the hallways of high school without tripping over her own feet?

Never Been Kissed - Drew Barrymore
A delightful 1999 Drew movie. She produced it (Flower Films) and starred in it. As a brilliant college graduate and copy editor for the Chicago Sun-Times, Drew (Josie Geller) is sent on her first assignment as a reporter. Her new adventure at age twenty five, takes her as an undercover investigator back to her old high school to find out what goes on and what has changed. Actually, just like nearly ten years before, Drew has her hands full just trying to fit in. Navigating the social lessons are still formidable. Cliques, mean people, show off's, and rejection, give Drew a little trouble passing herself off as seventeen and as an english major in college, she quickly gets boos and hisses in literature class. Through some tense moments, new friends, twists of fate and the curse of falling in love with her English teacher, Drew finds herself as the Prom Queen at school and nearly fired at work. However with a clever plot, love, and Drew's world class acting, the chaos has a tearfully funny and happy ending.All in all, it is a middle-of-road movie. Setting, photography, cast and script about three stars. Drew Barrymore, the usual five stars. It has been said that when the director calls for action, drew just begins speaking, and the crew wonders if she heard the call. She did. Drews devastating childhood, two decades of experience, five generations of Barrymore talent, her personal charisma and irresistible charm, determined will to survive and reach stardom is the more compelling of these two stories. Drew can carry any movie and it is always a joy to see her work.

So adorable!
The more I watch "Never Been Kissed" the cuter it becomes (thanks to Drew Barrymore). It's billed as an 80's movie and I guess in a way it kinda is. It's definitely a romantic comedy and I believe it is somewhat set in the 80's, but it does have some awesome 80's music. Anyway, the storyline is really cute and I loved Gary Marshall as the not so nice manager who gives Josie Geller the undercover job. I really wish Hollywood would stop casting Molly Shannon as the friend (only because I cannot stand her), but it works either way. It's not a hilarious movie, but it has some funny moments and I really liked David Arquette as Josie's brother who is set on becoming a big baseball star. And the ending is just oh so swoon worthy.... like all 80's but not really 80's movies should be!

Memory unlocked!
After seeing a clip of this movie on Facebook reels a memory was instantly unlocked! I hadn’t thought about this movie in YEARS! As soon as J saw the clip I was on the hunt and found it on Prime Video! The selection of older movies is always fantastic!
