Whatever It Takes Audience Reviews

Mjeteconer Just perfect...
Konterr Brilliant and touching
Console best movie i've ever seen.
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Catherine_Grace_Zeh WHATEVER IT TAKES, in my opinion, is a sweet, charming, romantic, hilarious, and heartwarming romantic teen comedy. If you ask me, Ashley (Jodi Lyn O'Keefe) was, indeed, a very popular, as well as pretty, high school senior. Also, I thought that she, Ryan (Shane West), Maggie (Marla Sokoloff), and Chris (James Franco) looked good in the attire they wore to the prom. That was one of my most favorite parts of the movie. This was because a lot of wacky things happened then. I especially liked the after-prom party. My reason for that is because it took place in a hotel. That makes me wish I had been invited to a party like that when I was a senior in high school. Before I wrap this up, I'd like to say, "Bets like that are stupid. I think you should let the person you love fall in love with you rather than wooing them." Now, in conclusion, if you're a fan of Jodi Lyn O'Keefe, Shane West, Marla Sokoloff, or James Franco, I highly recommend this sweet, charming, hilarious, and heartwarming romantic teen comedy, that is, if you haven't seen it.
Kis2c2h This movie was just awful! It was just about the worst movie I've ever seen. It's up there w/ Win a Date w/ Tad Hamitlon & In Good Company. This movie had absolutely no point. The had Shane West as the "geek"! How could you put someone that gorgeous as a geek?!?! HONESTLY! I really hated the movie, it was cheesy lame & should have never been made. Don't watch it b/c those are important minutes of your life that you will never get back! I mean Shane goes to all these attempts to get a girl who only seems interested b/c he treats her badly. I don't understand if a guy pushed me in my pool there would be no more speaking between us! This movie is a rip off & boring. I actually might have fallen asleep a few times. The ending was just awful, and his friends were complete and total fools! I've never seen any movie so strange. The prom being themed Titanic was just insane. I really can't even put into words how badly I hated this movie. DON'T GO SEE IT. Believe me i'm helping you out!
george.schmidt WHATEVER IT TAKES (2000) * Shane West, Jodi Lyn O'Keefe, Marla Sokoloff, James Franco, Aaron Paul, Colin Hanks, Kip Purdue, Julia Sweeney, Richard Schiff. Charmless and brainless umpteenth remake of all of John Hughes' teenager in love flicks with alleged comedy take on 'Cyrano De Bergerac' of all blasphemes! West and Franco form an unlikely alliance to help the other win over the girl of their dreams, yada yada yada.Babelicious O' Keefe is put through the ringer and humiliation but her character deserves it and for that matter the rest of the cast and particular the talentless director David Raynor who wouldn't recognize subtlety and nuance if it bit him on the ass!
scobbah "Whatever it takes" is by one line summary really just another teen movie. All though we might need sometimes in our lives to remember to smile and how playful life and love could be from time to time. The story is about two guys, one who's acting out like the school's general geek and the other guy is the school's Johnny Bravo. Both of them wants the same, the girl of their dreams and lives. With using tricks and cheats they try and do whatever it takes to succeed their mission, to finally get the girl. As "the geek" wants the other guys cousin, and as him indeed wants the geeks best mate and neighbor, they decide to team up to score.This is nothing more than another movie about crazy teens, but all though it might give you a laugh at some points. See this only if you got some time to spare and you're really bored.
