Film Title: She's The Man

Cast: Amanda Bynes, Channing Tatum, James Kirk

Synopsis: Viola (Bynes) and Sebastian (Kirk) are twins. Viola was in her school's soccer team but it got cut, so while Sebastian was in London for some music performances, she decided to BE Sebastian and joined his new school's men soccer team, a rival team that is going to face her own school. It was like the movie that we introduced last month, Bend It Like Beckham, about a girl trying hard to prove that she is capable to play in this male dominant sports.
