Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation

rzajac (Note: spoiler is a mild one. I draw attention to it here lest I be accused of spoiling).I enjoyed a lot of Jawbreaker. For about the first 2/3, it looked like they were going to pull off something narratively special, perhaps even spectacular.But they weren't able to develop the plot properly and keep the momentum; at least, it didn't work for me.A lot of folks are calling it a 'Heathers' wannabe; and maybe it is arguably trying to tap that vein. But I approached it on its own terms, and proceeded to try to fit the characters into various contexts, e.g., on a linear scale of vaunted coolness. I sort of expected them to pull off at least some kind of trenchant plot fillip. But, in the end, the film falls prey to the simple fact that the parties involved didn't really have a strong enough narrative drive. Like I said, it provided fodder for some kind of real resolution, but (as they say) the hardest part of a chess game is the end-game. The same is true for a flick that establishes tension based on genuinely high-stakes circumstances (mild spoiler: murder). The flick frays rapidly in the last 1/3.I'm sorry about this, 'cause it had so much going for it. If you like good story, skip it. If you're just looking for a colorful cinematic snack... it's OK.

whoopee87 I'm a huge fan of teenage flicks from CAN'T HRADLY WAIT-like to BUFFY-like. it had occurred to me when i was eagerly finding such teen movies which can make me enjoying. i was not that sure by the time i got it first. but i was completely wrong when i turned on.first of all, the colors which the film shows are a real attraction whole time. jawbreakers, girls' clothes, retro sequences.... i just like it and was lured by it.acting is also fresh and Rebecca is so good...some scenes are really funny as hell...if u choose this as your teen movie, u won't regret, i bet.my overall : 8/10

Cablebot3000 This film is sort of similar to mean girls (well, mean girls would be similar to this), but a lot more daring and darker. The characters make the movie what it is. Rose McGowan does a great job as a evil, manipulating bitch who stops at nothing to live her perfect life. The rest of the cast also did really good. The storyline is over the top, but it makes a great riot. Plus, the film actually has some morale to it, showing the good and bad side to human nature. If you like cult films, watch it. And definitely watch it if you are a fan of anyone in the cast. I rate this 7/10. Rated R for sexuality,language and violence-all involving teens.

moviesfan11 Jawbreaker;; There's always that group at rule the school. At Reagan High, it's the foursome, Courtney, Liz, Marcie and Julie. The plot is set in motion on the morning of Liz's birthday, when Courtney, Marcie and Julie break into her house, shove a jawbreaker in her mouth and lock her in the trunk. But their harmless prank goes horribly wrong when they discover Liz has choked on the jawbreaker. The rest of the running time involves the girls trying to cover up the murder and bribing a nerd to keep her mouth shut.I am a fan of teen movies and black comedies. Assuming Jawbreaker falls into both of those genre's I was expecting to adore the film. The problem with 'Jawbreaker' lies in the fact that the conflict is set into motion within the first 5 minutes, leaving the rest of the film running of low gas. But it offers enough one-liners, laughs and style to make up for the flaws.Performances are good around, and a keen sense of the bitchy high school girl stereotype is cleverly constructed here. After all, everybody has a Courtney in their life. She's the girl who loves to be feared, and MCGowen does a great job pulling her persona off.3 from 4.
