Sadly Over-hyped
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
View MoreAmazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
View MoreThe film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
View MoreThis movie is 90s American culture distilled into an hour and a half. Its presentation of then contemporary society- an idealization of society that demonstrates the values of the mainstream. The problems of desire- in bucolic suburbia life finds a way to narrate itself its own minor strife to allow those in the era devoid to feel alive.
View MoreIt was a classic teen movie with hundreds of clichés ! we have seen the same story again and again and still it was watched with pleasure ! it is not easy to be bored with a movie like that ... i would not recommend it someone who is not into chick- flicks ! the 90s were a great decade for films like that so there are some interesting points made ! the problem is that there was nothing standing out about this movie not the cast , not the plot line !after all i enjoyed watching it but there are far better movies of this type you should watch first P.S. See that movie before you see "not another teen movie" because even though it is a funny movie it contains many spoilers
View MoreSilly but fun teen romantic comedy about a high school jock (Freddie Prinze, Jr.) who bets his friend (Paul Walker) that he can turn a geek (Rachael Leigh Cook) into the prom queen. Flimsy updating of Pygmalion is hard to hate. It doesn't take itself seriously in the least. Yeah it's absolutely ridiculous that Rachael Leigh Cook, an exceptionally pretty girl, would be considered unattractive just because she wears glasses and overalls. But you just roll with it because it's cute and fun. The cast is very likable and the script is good for this type of movie. Matthew Lillard steals pretty much every scene he's in. It's fluff but you'll be smiling when it's over. Can't see the harm in that.
View MoreLate 90s / early '00 produced some of my favorite movies ever, including some romantic teen comedies. But what the hell was this all about? Was this a PARODY for a teen flick? It certainly felt like it.They CAN'T be serious. I mean, who'd want to produce (or star in) something THIS lame?! It's outrageous! Honestly, I don't even know where to start.I won't say that this movie is full of clichés. It's fair to say that this whole "movie" IS one huge cliché. It's not a movie; it's a parody for a movie. And even as such, it fails miserably, because, if nothing else, it should AT LEAST be mildly amusing (if not funny), but there is ZERO humour in this stinker.It's not funny, it's not romantic, it's not realistic, it's not heart-warming, it's not dramatic, it's not... anything. It's just boing, lame, predictable, and annoying.The acting is nothing short of ATROCIOUS. Look at these people! How do they get acting jobs? I wouldn't cast them as extras in made-for-TV flicks! They're really, really, really bad. No, not just the leads; all of them! I shouldn't even bring up the fact that this "movie" defines the term "predictable"; it goes without saying. I guarantee you have not seen anything as disgustingly predictable and cheesy as this.No one deserves to be subjected to such moronic bulls***. It insults human intelligence. I had to watch an Arnie movie right after this, so I could get the stench of this piece of s*** out of my system.Urgh, people associated with this pathetic excuse for a movie, should be banned by law to work in the film industry.
