Interesteg What makes it different from others?
Crwthod A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.
SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.
Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
WakenPayne The one reason and one reason only that I watched this movie is that not only did my brother say it's a so-bad-it's-good movie but it's one of the funniest. Deciding to sit down and watch it without knowing anything, the original movie, the story of which they're both based off of or anything else this is a so bad it's good movie but not one of the best.Okay the story is that a delinquent named Sebastian Valmont is being taken care of by his father and rich stepmother and step-sister. He goes to school and falls in love (and would you believe it, this seems even more spontaneous than a Disney movie) and he tries to go out with her. Meanwhile his step-sister Kathryn tries to lower his guard so he can instead be a prick while she tries to remain on top of the popularity ladder and stay the best at everything.Now to be fair, I am NOT criticizing the acting. The reason is that the directing and writing are both horrible. A line of dialogue literally goes "Yesterday was my first kiss and today you're at second base, at this rate your d!ck will be in my mouth before lunch"... I don't think Marlon Brando could save writing that asks for dialogue THIS F#CKING STUPID. In terms of directing, there is a scene where in an attempt to make Sebastian what he is Kathryn sends 2 lesbians into his shower to make out naked in front of him. And before you ask - no, this is not something out of a porn. Another scene involves a Student body going into a BIG DARK ROOM where they look at slides of new students and allocate them (What High School student let alone a group of High Shcool Students do this?).BUT through horrible lines and horrible directing, this is enjoyable... Before you go crazy I'm just going to tell you why, This stuff is so awkward, so... To simply put it "what the f#ck" that it just has to get a laugh out of me. I know the actors can do better (hell, I've seen them in better!) but honestly, as I said not even an actor of the very highest caliber can save something this awful.Now I have no idea if the first movie is any good or not but if you see some so-bad-it's-good opportunity from this (and if you don't I can see why) then it's really worth checking out. I mean if you see in the original movie some good characters and story (although as I said, have no idea of it, this is just guess work) then you might think this is one of the worst sequels ever made. As I said, check it out if you want something to laugh at.
atinder This movie is not sequel or prequel , its' a remake of the first movie, with some different. I enjoyed the opening scenes, if they it was copy of first movie, with bit different as the movies goes on. This actually start on first day of school instead of Summer like the first movie. Evil Kathryn in this movie was decent but nothing compared to Sarah Michelle Gellar but much better portrayed then new guy playing Sebastian.It stated of okay but as the movie went on, I don't believe , it carried that character as it should have been. Well I don't think the script helped in some place, I found some of it so bad.Danielle is the new Annette in this movie, I did not like her at all, I didn't care for at all. However I did like one scenes in this movie, two hot naked girls walking into shower and well they just peck on lip, while seb in the shower! I thought ending was decent, I didn't not expect at all, I thought it was decent turn in the story. 5 out of 10
i_luv_colour Because 'cruel' would be the only word in existence to describe the intentions of these film makers. Where do you even begin? In a spout of b*tchiness, I'm going to start with the awful acting of nearly everybody in this movie. Scratch that. Nearly does not belong in that sentence. I can't think of even one character who was portrayed well. Although, in all fairness, it would be nearly impossible to portray these zero dimensional characters in a successful way. Still, the girl who played Katherine (whose name I purposefully don't include - I'm pretending she doesn't exist) remains one of the worst actors I've ever seen, only eclipsed by the guy who played Sebastian. The story was God awful. It attempted to mirror the brilliance that was the first one but failed in so many ways. Pretty much every part of it was pointless - though I will admit (grudgingly) that the plot twist was quite good it its surprise. And the ending was at least slightly humorous. But this film is up there with the worst I've seen. Don't watch it. Just don't. There is absolutely no value in watching it. None. It only takes away the enjoyment of the first.
dracosbabe88 They had such potential for this movie and they completely fall flat. In the first Cruel Intentions, we are left wondering what motivated the lead characters to become the way they are and act the way they do. There is almost NO character development whatsoever in this prequel. It's actually a very sad story but this film did nothing for me. It was as if they left out good writing in place of unneeded f-words. And the end makes absolutely no sense and doesn't explain anything. The writing was just terrible. Another thing that bothered me was that they used at lease 3 of the EXACT SAME lines that were in the original. Such as "down boy", or the kissing scene, and a few others I can't remember. I was not impressed at all by Robin's acting, but Amy did a great job. That's about the only thing that reconciled this movie.
