Cruel Intentions Audience Reviews

Blucher One of the worst movies I've ever seen

GazerRise Fantastic!

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.

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Kirpianuscus nothing surprising. only decent acting, young actors, the old novel, a new frame. and, maybe, nothing more. result- a nice version, more seductive for young public . short, a cool film. and this could be a real great virtue ( of you do not ignore the sensuality of Ryan Philip).

blumdeluxe "Cruel Intentions" tells the story of two posh step-siblings that are both in their very own way manipulative. Whilest she focuses on breaking him by ruining his very first true love, he has to find a way to get around that and realize what's really important in life, all settled around an unmoral bet.In fact it is a very entertaining movie. It is easily watchable and not too complicated to follow. Nonetheless there were some points that prevented the film to be outstanding in my opinion. First of all the mere plot isn't a peak of creativity. It seems to be a common hobby at American schools to make silly bets whether you can have Sex with someone and then fall undying in love with him. Secondly everything seems to happen just a bit too fast. One day she is a convinced virgin waiting for true love and just a few days later she confesses her deep love and throws all her beliefs over board. Last but not least, I didn't really buy the lead. He's supposed to be a lady's man and very seductive but he rather behaves like a spoiled child and also looks very young. I don't see women fall for him on a large scale.All in all, "Cruel Intentions" is a nice movie to watch time and again, especially the end is above standard. But what separates this one from the tons of similar movies I have yet to understand.

gavin6942 Two wealthy step-siblings of an elite Manhattan prep school make a wager: to de-flower the new headmaster's daughter (Reese Witherspoon) before the start of term.Having gone to high school in the latter half of the 1990s, this was one of those films that really defined a generation. All the big stars of the day were in it, and at least one 9Witherspoon) has one on to bigger and better things. At the time I was not aware that this was a remake of a 1980s film. I found it to be brilliant and quite deviously original.I now know that it is a remake, but think no less of it because of this. In many ways, this film is even more powerful. John Malkovich did a fine job capturing what spoiled aristocrats can do, but it is all the more troublesome what spoiled teenagers can do.

Finfrosk86 Wow, talk about your overrated movies, huh?Well, overrated in terms of popularity, I guess. The critics didn't really love it afaik, but it sure is one movie most people have heard of. Pretty popular back in the day.So, what do we have here? This is clearly made for teens/young adults. I wont explain the plot, I don't think reviews should do that. Anyway.It's not bad, it's not exactly boring, but it's not exactly a roller coaster ride, either. While it's not bad, some of the acting comes off as pretty bad, though. At least the acting from Selma Blair. Is she supposed to be mentally challenged or something? She behaves really weird at times. The other actors are OK. Reese Witherspoon I thought was pretty good.The main problem with the movie is that it's a little dull. You never really get that "wow, I wanna see how this ends!"-feeling, and in these movies you need that.The ending is also really poor. You'll probably go: "what the hell"!? with a silly look on your face. I saw this with my girlfriend, and we were like: "what the hell"?! with a silly look on our face. (not that we share a face or anything, we ain't freaks! leave us alone!)So yeah, there you have it. I am disappoint.
