FeistyUpper If you don't like this, we can't be friends.
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
movieswithgreg I saw this as one of those "it's 11pm I'm not ready for bed what's this movie I've never seen popping up on the schedule" movies. It starts out like countless tween flix -- the crazy night between high school graduation and the the next sunrise that concludes the iconic teen zany hero's journey. It has parts of so many movies past -- RISKY BUSINESS, MY TUTOR, PORKY'S, ORANGE COUNTY, SAY ANYTHING, SOME KIND OF WONDERFUL, PRETTY IN PINK, SIXTEEN CANDLES, GRADUATION NIGHT, THE TO DO LIST, et al. The geeky guy, his colorful buddy sidekick, the unattainable sex/love object with a vulnerable heart of gold, the jealous brute BF, the fish out of water ritzy party, the encounter with wildlife, the encounter with booze, the cool parents, losing articles of clothing, you get the picture. What makes this one different? Not much, except that it's updated for 2009, and starring the then-uber-marketable girl who played the cheerleader in HEROES, a ridiculously muddled but popular tv series of its day.What saves this one from sliding further towards sucknosity is not-stupid acting, not-stupid writing and dialogue, and not stupidly impossible situations. Restraint and a modicum of adultness is what saves this one from being mock-worthy. It's pleasant, has some funny moments, tries not to insult your intelligence, and mostly gets away with it.
threestarandsevenlip I had watched this movie around four to five years ago from now i.e. 12/18/2015 and that time I was not familiar with IMDb.com , and used to have very limited access and understanding of English Movie and English language because 4 to 5 years ago my English was not so good as it is now. Despite of above 2 factors I had really enjoyed this movie but a few days ago when I came across the rating of " I Love You Beth Cooper" movie I was surprised because this movie is far better than the rating it got on the IMDb. So I decided to watch it again and I did watch it again on 12/18/2015 @ 2 am @ Friday and I must say that to me this movie is as good as it used to be 4 to 5 years ago. Whenever I watch a movie , I do not think whether this is realistic or not , the thing that matters to me most is that whether it entertains me or not and in case of " I Love You Beth Cooper" It really entertained me . This movie really have some light funny and feely moments. This is my First review on IMDb.com for a movie and I wrote it because this movie is better than the ratings and reviews suggest. For me it is 10 ********** Stars. "I Love You, Beth Cooper "
Python Hyena I Love You, Beth Cooper (2009): Dir: Chris Columbus / Cast: Hayden Panettiere, Paul Rust, Jack T. Carpenter, Shawn Roberts, Lauren London: Morbid teen comedy about infatuation. A nerdy valedictorian announces his lust for Beth and what follows is an evening of reckless driving and violent encounters with her much bigger ex-boyfriend. Predictable trash as if anyone cares whether these two unite. Why is Chris Columbus directing this? For a guy who brought us the first two Home Alone and Harry Potter films as well as Mrs. Doubtfire and Rent this just seems beneath his talent. The only benefit is the fact that he hasn't directed a film of this nature before but did it have to be a teen flick of this level of dread? He is far too talented for this. Hayden Panettiere plays an irresponsible bimbo who shouldn't be driving. Beth Cooper is basically eye candy with the personality of a can of hair spray. Paul Rust overacts as her suitor in typical pursuit fashion. Jack T. Carpenter plays his gay best friend who denies his sexuality. Shawn Roberts plays the embarrassing ex-boyfriend. Lauren London and Lauren Storm have the misfortune of playing Beth Cooper's airhead friends. None of this is particularly thrilling and seems bent on presenting mindless humour that is more irritating than funny. Bottom line, if you love Beth Cooper, you may be too easy to please. Score: 2 / 10
simongeraint You guys are dropping hate on it for being bad unfunny or uncreative reused jokes but thats the point its not meant to be serious or have good timing or anything its a teen high school p*ss take movie meant to be cringy bad if they were going to make a serious teen love movie it would look high school musical or twilight and then you would drop the reviews because its to serious as for reused jokes most teen love comedy's have copied joke thats what makes them light harted and funny Please give it a fair chance Bare that in mid before watching it don't take it seriously its worth a watch if your in the mood for bad jokes a teen comedy
