D.E.B.S.
is a comedy about a
quartet of recent high school graduates-turned-government secret
agents who were chosen based
on their scores on a secret test embedded with the S.A.T. that
measures the ability to cheat, lie, and kill (looking good in
their plaid school-girl uniforms appears to be a requirement,
too).
Holland
Taylor plays the task-master head of the D.E.B.S. organization,
and Michael Clarke Duncan has a small role as the head of the D.E.B.S.
school. The leader of this particular group of D.E.B.S. is Max (played
by Megan Goode of Eve's Bayou, Deliver Us from Evie,
and Biker Boyz), an assertive, serious young woman who
works hard to keep everything running smoothly. The French-accented
Dominique (Devon Aoki of 2 Fast 2 Furious) sleeps with
a different guy every night and never goes anywhere without a cigarette
in her mouth, while earnest Janet (Jill Ritchie, reprising her role
from the short film on which the feature is based) tries desperately
to prove her worth to Max.
Finally,
we have girl-next-door Amy (Sara Foster, also starring in the upcoming
Owen Wilson flick The Big Bounce), frequently referred
to as "The Perfect Score" because she performed so well
on the secret test. Amy has just broken up with her boyfriend, fellow
government-agent Bobby (Geoff Stults from 7th Heaven),
because she's not in love with him, and he's having a hard time
letting go.
The
D.E.B.S.' evil arch-enemy, Lucy Diamond (played by Jordana Brewster
of The Fast and the Furious), is also having a hard time
getting over being dumped by a girl. A career criminal whose list
of bad deeds include trying to sink Australia, Lucy is shrouded
in mystery to everyone but her trusty assistant, Scud (Jimmi Simpson),
since no one has ever fought Lucy and lived to tell about it.
After
a funny Charlie's Angels-type opening, the film
follows the D.E.B.S. as they are assigned to secretly monitor a
meeting between Lucy Diamond and a beautiful Russian assassin, Ninotchka
(played by Jessica Cauffiel from Legally Blond and Legally
Blond 2), who embodies every American movie stereotype of a
Russian femme fatale.
Turns
out, it's not a meeting, but a blind date arranged by Scud. At dinner,
Lucy figures out pretty quickly that Ninotchka's not the one for
her, but before she can end the date, shooting breaks out in the
restaurant and Lucy's on the run from the D.E.B.S.--until she runs
into Amy (literally) and sparks begin to fly in a hilarious verbal
exchange.
Smitten with Amy, Lucy begins to create opportunities for them to
be together, despite Amy's initial unwillingness to acknowledge
her attraction to Lucy. But their mutual attraction quickly becomes
obvious, and Amy sneaks away to stay with Lucy for a few days so
they can spend some time together. The D.E.B.S. mistakenly believe
Amy's been kidnapped and organize a nationwide hunt to "rescue"
Amy, only to find Lucy and Amy in a rather compromising position.
Their relationship no longer a secret, Amy is finally forced to
choose between her loyalty to the D.E.B.S. and her feelings for
Lucy.
