John Tucker Must Die rating: (out of 4 stars) United States; 2006 Directed by Betty Thomas; produced by Michael Birnbaum, Bob Cooper; written by Jeff Lowell Starring Jesse Metcalfe, Brittany Snow, Ashanti, Sophia Bush, Arielle Kebbel, Jenny McCarthy Below you will find a temporary review for this film. The real (better, more complete) review will be online very soon.
'John Tucker Must Die' simply delivers what it promises and does that good
enough. That means you will go and see this film for a reason, probably the
premise and kind of film it should be, and it will deliver. In other words,
it features one of those non-existing high schools where girls beat each
other up because they love the same guy and where an outsider is about to
change things. Of course the outsider is supposed to be a nobody but is hot
as hell and would never be ignored in the real world. The things she, here
named Kate (Brittany Snow), will change have to do with John Tucker (Jesse
Metcalfe) who dates three girls at the same time. The girls are Heather
(Ashanti), Beth (Sophia Bush) and Carrie (Arielle Kebbel) and they need
nobody Kate to get even with Tucker. Kate has experiences with Tucker-men
since her mother, played by Jenny McCarthy, dates one a week. |
