Mean Girls doesn't come close to that trap and it actually succeeds in all three places.
However, Mean Girls is a film that can get annoying at times because the young women that are labeled "the plastics" are constantly talking in such an odd matter.
Mean Girls hits the marks it needed to be worth a recommendation and it is even slightly better and less flawed than last weeks 13 Going On 30.

The biggest difference between Mean Girls and Heathers is the lack of that unmistakable spark of dark, playful genius.
Paramount issues Mean Girls on DVD in an expert 1.78:1 anamorphic widescreen presentation.* The image maintains stable saturation without dulling the film's tropical palette, and thankfully the telecine operators lay off on the DVNR, which had erased fine textures from the studio's last teen title, The Prince and Me.
Though Waters' bathroom motif (part of Mean Girls as well as his oeuvre proper) is discussed at length, the participants avoid lowbrow humour--or much humour of any kind, actually, despite the laughter inevitably promised by the yakker's pedigree.

This leads to one of Mean Girls' repeated metaphors: as she's spent her childhood being home-schooled by her anthropologist parents in Africa, Cady envisions her new classmates as inhabitants of a "wild" habitat.
The girls' phone conversations, arranged in split screens to showcase their deviousness at any given moment, build to weird little climaxes, for instance, the discovery of a third party (another girl) listening in, and so some dire secret has been revealed.

 Mean Girls - Movie Rental Review
The friendships with the girls in her clique are a template for many relationships she'll have as an adult.
Girls' friendships in adolescence are often intense, confusing, frustrating, and humiliating, the joy and security of "best friends" shattered by devastating breakups and betrayals.
Girls' reactions to the ups and downs of these friendships are as intense as they'll later feel in intimate relationships.

The girls wear revealing clothing throughout the film, and the scene where the girls are doing the audition for the talent show shows them in somewhat revealing costumes, which I found inappropriate.
Girls need to stick together, because if we claim to be supporting our sisters while at the same time stabbing them in the back, and good we do is undone.
There is definite talk of sex, and in several scenes it is obvious that one of the “mean girls” mother’s has no objection to her daughter having sex in her own room.

 TheMovieBoy Review - Mean Girls (2004)
The unfortunately overlooked "The Girl Next Door" was emphatic and vibrant enough to stand as one of the best teen films of the last decade.
Directed at a knowing, zippy clip by Mark S. Waters (2003's "Freaky Friday"), "Mean Girl" is a smashing satire surprisingly knowledgeable about the what's, how's, and why's of teenage life.
Fast-paced and never less than wholly engaging, "Mean Girls" has been deceptively marketed in its trailer and TV ads as a bubbly, commonplace teen comedy when nothing could be further from the truth.

Fey wrote Mean Girls, in which a formerly home-schooled girl named Cady (Lindsay Lohan) gets dropped into the sneaky, vicious world of the Plastics, three adolescent glamour-girls who dominate their public high school's social heirarchy.
Mean Girls joins the ranks of Clueless, Bring It On, and Heathers, cunning movies that use the hormone-pressurized high school milieu to put the dark impulses of human nature--ambition, envy, lust, revenge--under a comic microscope.
The reason Mean Girls is so great is that its a film that EVERYONE can relate to- you can watch it and think 'I know these people!' because there are people like them at every school in the world.

A girl refers to herself as "half a virgin" and there is a joke about girl-girl kissing.

 Slant Magazine - Film Review: Mean Girls
Adapted by SNL's Tina Fey from Rosalind Wiseman's bestseller Queen Bees and Wannabes, Mean Girls casts Lohan as Cady Heron, an Eliza Thornberry who's transplanted from the African bush to suburban Illinois, and observes what happens to the girl in her new ecosystem.
Perhaps no one is better equipped than Fey to take on this kind of material—not only does she craft good sketch comedy for Lorne Michaels every Saturday, but she's also a high school survivor with an obvious ax to grind (for better and for worse).
Mean Girls is a chick flick, but unlike Connie and Carla and 13 Going on 30, this is a chick flick with a brain.

Just as many now are responding viscerally to the powerful examples Simmons uses to prove her point that girls engage in aggression that is indirect but at least as damaging as that of boys.
A group of girls tormented one poor soul by sending her flowers under the name of a boy she had a crush on, sending him a sexually explicit letter under her name and telling a teacher she was cheating on tests.
Yet while the effort to cast girl aggressors as victims of societal oppression no doubt contributes to its popularity among the female sex, it's a troubling part of the Simmons phenomenon.

Mean Girls depicts the kind of traumatic high school experience that might await spoiled rich girls who grow up in two-parent households with designer clothes and Escalades.
Lohan, in her third lead role in a year, is a good reactive young actress, and London, Ont., native Rachel McAdams is excellently evil, a dose of poison in a pretty lacquered container.
Lohan is a warm and engaging presence, but she's completely outshone by the bad girls, and when they're offscreen, Mean Girls is an oddly restrained, barely plotted movie.

Mean Girls generated a lot of buzz when it first came out, but as you might have guessed, I'm not a Mean Girl, so I gave it a pass.

 USATODAY.com - Scathing 'Mean Girls' does its job nicely   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
This is OK, because new girl Cady (Lindsay Lohan) proves resourceful enough to deal with instant adversaries, with assistance from two outcast pals (gay male, freak female) she meets on Day 1 of school.
But attractive Cady is co-opted by the school-ruling "Plastics," whom she had set out to combat, once they allow her into a social circle whose own members backbite each other.
Girls, which gets funnier as it goes, is his best since 1992's Wayne's World and a sparky follow-up for Lohan and director Mark Waters to last year's PG-rated Freaky Friday.
