Silverstone makes Cher's insularity appealingly innocent (even in the midst of crisis, she can't resist checking out the latest fashion lines), and an attempted seduction scene is sweetly hopeless.

Reviews
There's such a gaping discontinuity between her physical beauty and her vacant, gum-snapping personality that she's like a walking advertisement for everything that's right and wrong with America.
A fresh, disarmingly bright and at times explosively funny comedy well worth a trip to the mall, even if it eventually runs out of gas.
Though this drifts at times as storytelling, it's mainly lightweight but personable fun.
Clueless is a happy bubble, and Alicia Silverstone comes into her own as a confident young comedienne.
...although the movie isn't quite the classic it's been made out to be, it's a mindlessly diverting way to kill 97 minutes.
The movie's simple yet spot-on characters and performances make the laughs timeless, no matter how firmly the film is set in 1995.
The fact that you instantly like these spoiled little rich kids is a testament to Amy Heckerling's skills as a screenwriter.
