Our 21st Century Cult series sticks to the cheerleader theme as we present the mother of em all: Bring It On!
The Toro cheerleading squad from Rancho Carne High School in San Diego has got spirit, spunk, sass and a killer routine that’s sure to land them the national championship trophy for the sixth year in a row. But for newly-elected team captain Torrance, the Toros’ road to total cheer glory takes a shady turn when she discovers that their perfectly-choreographed routines were in fact stolen.
Bring It On may have started as a seemingly light teen comedy about competitive cheerleading, but over two decades later, it stands as a sharp, enduring satire of cultural appropriation and privilege while masquerading as a bubble gum pop teen movie!
