Hilary Busis of Entertainment Weekly called it a "thinly veiled, low-budget remake of the 2004 hit with which it shares a name". Brian Orndorf gave the film a D+ grade and wrote that "Whatever problems I had with the 2004 feature aren't even an issue here, as the new film offers a decidedly more pedestrian take on the clique warfare concept, trading Fey's sly ambition for cruel DTV routine." Sandie Angulo Chen of Common Sense Media gave the film 3 out of 5, writing: "Mildly amusing sequel follows same 'be yourself' storyline." However, the film was TV's most-watched movie of the 2010-2011 season among viewers aged 12–34, and was especially popular with girls and women aged 12–34 (according to Variety (magazine)). On its original air date, Mean Girls 2 "was cable’s most-watched program from 8 to 10 p.m. in all key demos and No. 2 in overall viewers (3.4 million)". References External links Mean Gir....
