But I'm a Cheerleader Movie Review 1999

Broad satire falls flat. Megan (Lyonne) is a peppy high school cheerleader who is suspected of being a lesbian by her rigid parents, who send her off to a rehabilitation camp designed to turn adolescent homosexuals into straight members of society. Megan (who's naively unaware of her true nature) goes along with the program until she befriends rebellious Graham (DuVall) and discovers that, golly, she really does like girls.
