Which Show Should You See?
Based on CriticScore: Mean Girls has a higher critic rating (76 vs 60).
Audiences say: Beetlejuice earns an A- (Liking It), while Mean Girls gets a B+ (Liking It).
Critics are divided on this manic musical adaptation, with some embracing its high-energy chaos and eye-popping visuals while others find it exhaustingly loud and tonally confused. Alex Brightman's performance wins widespread praise.
Critics find Mean Girls a fun, flashy crowd-pleaser with Tina Fey's sharp wit intact, but note the score is forgettable and repetitive. The energetic production and standout performances compensate for a safe, overlong adaptation that softens the film's satirical edge.
