I seriously loved every part of this movie! It's basically about a guy who dates 3 different girls from 3 different crowds so that they will never meet one another. They eventually find out and decide to plot against him. The methods they use are really funny and it's especially frustrating for the girls when everything seems to go John's way no matter what they do. I thought the ending wrapped it up nicely too =).

this was an absolutely fantastic movie. It's definitnely my favorite movie of all time. It's just so funny and unpredictable. The four girls went to great heights to bring John down. In this movie, John Tucker, the school's hotshot is dating three girls. They are all from different clicks and they don't talk to each other. They all soon find out that they are being cheated on. They set John up with the new girl, and he starts to really like her. Then she breaks up with him. They want him to know what it feels like to have his heart broken.

I absolutely loved this movie.

A chick flick, with a lot of evil

I really liked this movie. And not just the girls vs boy theme but especially the three completely different girls who group up to destroy a male ;)

Well, the movie has an interesting subject but I think "Mean girls" just did this. But I'd rather recommend watching this movie cuz it's funnier. The three girls are rather stereotypes than girls but that adds a lot of fun. I can only criticize the way they treat the new girl at the beginning. Forcing her to do that and saying not to be her friend any more.... Tststs, not very nice.

But other than that, great comedy and romance. I really liked that the "new girl" went for the little brother and NOT for the superficial jock. MORE PLEASE!

I originally thought that this was a horror movie but when my 9 year old sister started watching it...!

This movie is hilarious, and it's really fun. You want regret seeing it. Just don't expect something deep or emotional - you'll be disapointed. If you're in this for fun - than congrats, you just found a perfect way to spend two hours. (Plus, the cast is great: Arielle, Sophia, Ashanti, Jesse, Brittany...)

  A slumber-party classic that belongs on the same shelf as "Bring It On" and "10 Things I Hate About You." This high-school comedy should do for its 20-year-old star, Brittany Snow, what those movies did for Kirsten Dunst and Julia Stiles.

  Betty Thomas, directing a script by TV veteran Jeff Lowell, seems uncertain whether to sympathize with her three heroines or with the title cad, but there's something mildly charming about this cheerful revenge comedy's lack of any straightforward moral agenda.

  A briskly-paced, refreshing kick in this season of draggy, two-hour-plus movies. The film is smarter and funnier than its trailers indicate, and, as a bonus, there are no superheroes, pirates or Wilson brothers to be found.

  Although mixing teen humor with sentiment will never be done as well as in "American Pie," John Tucker Must Die has just enough heart to entertain the "MySpace" set.

  The performers are a bright bunch, especially Snow (even if she's no sane person's idea of a wallflower), Metcalfe, who has the cocksure swagger of a young Travolta, and McCarthy, who infuses her few scenes with a haggard dignity masquerading as optimism.

  Revenge movies often end with the message that vengeance is empty and futile, but it's never encouraging when revenge seems pointless from the start.

  Penn Badgley is wildly charismatic in the role of John Tucker's younger brother. The entire picture could hang on his cheekbones alone. If only Mr. Metcalfe shared his talents.

  Too cute by half, the high school comedy John Tucker Must Die is just so likable, so, um, cute - in that helpless-bunny-wabbit sort of way - that to diss it would be to admit being a heartless, cynical Bambi-killer.

  The movie starts out cleverly enough but grows insipid as the girls' antics become more predictable.
