I absolutely love this movie. It's so funny, the cast is amazing, and it is one of my all-time favorite movies.This movie is about a guy named John Tucker. At his High School he is the most popular, and the most athletic. Every guy wants to be him and every girl wants to be with him. Which is good for him, since he dates multiple girls at once. He dates girls from different cliques so they never talk to each other. He uses pet names so he doesn't mix their names up. One day, a new girl, Kate, is stuck in detention with three girls all fighting over John. Eventually, they team up to take John down. Kate becomes his new love-interest and then she's going to break his heart. But feelings may get in the way.Best part of the movie: When Kate and the girls are figuring out a way to destroy John.Worst part of the movie: When John climbs on the ledge of a building.Overall, I give this movie a 10 out of 10, which in my ratings book is: Freaking Ridonkulous.

Kate (Brittany Snow) is the new girl in town! She is shocked to find out that John Tucker is dating three girls at once. She's also having trouble fitting in, and feels like an outcast. If that isn't enough, her Mother dates so many guys, Kate ends up calling everyone one of them Skippy. In a quest to make John Tucker undateable, Kate joins three of John's jilted exes to gradually erode John. Things go awry and Kate ends up falling for himThis movie is aimed squarely at teenagers. I'm an adult and I had a fairly enjoyable time with it! I knew what to expect going into this one. It never fails to amaze me at how many people criticize movies like these. What do you honestly expect? Think of it as Mean Girls, but not quite as good. v It reminded me somewhat of my days in High School! People wanna fit in so badly and do anything to do so. Obviously, they embellished a lot of things, but still. It does get to the point where you don't know who to side with after a while. John Tucker is a full-fledged womanizer, but he's still a human being. As juvenile and silly as it got near the end I still had a good time with it all. It's a typical, but solid message about responsibility and being yourself. Hurting others to get revenge won't make things all that better. It even throws in a bit of Pretty in Pink for good measure! Funniest scene is when Tucker overdoses on estrogen pills! That's a hoot. The attractive cast acquits themselves well. Brittany Snow is adorable! She hits all the right notes as Kate and carried the film. It shocked me a charming girl like her was single for so long in the movie. Jesse Metcalfe is solid as the womanizing jock. Females will go crazy for him! Ashanti, Sophia Bush & Arielle Kebbel are fun. Penn Badgley is a tad underdeveloped, but good in his role. Jenny McCarthy looks good and plays the Mom part adequately. It's no Mean Girls, but it's fairly fun anyway. Accept it for what it is, and I don't see why you can't have some fun with it. Have people really gotten this cynical over movies? Relax and enjoy! That's my advice6.2/10

Kate (Brittany Snow) is an awkward invisible teen with a hot mom (Jenny McCarthy). John Tucker (Jesse Metcalfe) is the rich captain of the basketball team, and a real player off the court. When all the girls are forced into the same PE, it comes out that everybody (Ashanti, Sophia Bush, Arielle Kebbel) is dating John Tucker. The three girls enlist Kate into their schemes for revenge.It's a silly little comedy. I stress the silly, and downplay the comedy. The jokes don't really work. It doesn't have anything real. The girls are perfectly nice. Maybe that's the rub. There isn't any edge to the humor. They're not taking any chances.

It was a Friday night, me and my friend sitting by the computer, thinking what movie to rent on iTunes. I picked John Tucker Must Die, hearing one day from a friend that is absolutely hilarious, that it is going to a comedy classic in a few years and lots and lots more of... BULLSH*T.John Tucker Must Die is simply your another "stupid-teen-(romantic)comedy". The story is unbelievable, the "invisible" in the beginning main character is much prettier than the rest of the girls and that's not only my opinion. As for the acting its typical teen-movie acting - you know what to expect. The only reason one might find this movie enjoyable is because there are a couple of pretty girls in it, but that's not a good reason enough for me to waste 1.5h of my life. As for laughs,what I expected from it, I didn't find any laugh-out-loud moments and trust me, I do like various types of humour from Leslie Nielsen to Quentin Tarantino and the Coen Brothers. I laughed about 4 times total, and maximum 2 times, it was a laughter that could have been heard if someone was sitting really close to me. The movie is not TRASH but why waste your time to watch a comedy that's not really funny, a romantic movie that is predictable from the very beginning till the last minute of it and that's just a copy and a mixture of dozens of other romantic movies, a teen movie that has unbelievable characters...? trust me - you can find better things to do in this time!
