The musical of Mean Girls hits cinemas in the UK on Wednesday but fans of the 2004 Hollywood film have questioned why a remake is being released at all.
Paramount have revealed they downplayed that the Mean Girls remake is a musical after several cinemagoers confessed they had no clue until they saw the film.
The hit remake has been described as "too nice" compared to the 2004 original starring Lindsay Lohan – but does the new movie just offer its own, more contemporary version of meanness?
