Summary: 2001-02-01 00:00:00 Absolutely brilliant film! Ryan Phillipe plays Sebastian, a wealthy attractive promiscuous young man, who make a bet with his step-sister (Sarah-Michelle Gellar). The bet is to sleep with a published virgin (Reese Witherspoon). Wonderful twist at the end a must see.

Strengths: NA
Weaknesses: NA
Summary: 2002-07-07 00:00:00 An R-rated movie that is shockingly marketed toward teenagers, this one promotes sexuality as freedom, like too many trashy teen movies of our time. It includes not just premarital sex, but drug use, violence and nudity. The creators and actors in this film note that they had to find a non-obnoxious way to make a modern teen a virgin. That's right, my friends, being pure is obnoxious and unpopular. (I've never heard anything more ridcioulous!) Thankfully, the film didn't gross much, but several teenagers I know wanted to watch it at school. This film certainly has cruel intentions, to corrupt the teenagers of our time. Avoid at all costs.

Strengths: NA
Weaknesses: NA
Summary: 2001-07-13 00:00:00 I honestly could not find a purpose to this movie. It was all over the place and had no real focus. The only reason I didn't give it 1 star is because of those 2 chicks making out.

Strengths: NA
Weaknesses: NA
Summary: 2001-12-22 00:00:00 If you watch Cruel Intentions and then you watch Dangerous Liasons, you realize the difference that world class actors such as John Malkovich and Glenn Close can make on a film. Unfortunately, the makers of Cruel Intentions selected WB actors, who apparently didn't understand or appreciate the importance of chemistry / dialogue etc. in this movie's plot.

Strengths: NA
Weaknesses: NA
Summary: 2001-12-19 00:00:00 I thought this was a wicked, funny movie, with a lot of witty dialogue and good acting. Sure, it wasn't Oscar caliber, but it was just good dirty fun! Sarah Michelle Gellar made the pefect villainess as the bitch from hell Katherine, while I stare at Ryan Phillippe and wonder how he can be so damn hot! Man, Reese Witherspoon (who's also in the movie as the sweet, virginal nice girl) lucked out bagging him! Selma Blair was hilarious as the twitwad Cecile -she has some of the funniest lines, and so is Christine Baranski as her stuck-up mother.The movie gets a little overdramatic and hammy sometimes and the characters somewhat one-dimensional and predictable, but it's still a fun movie to watch. The music is pretty good, though I normally don't go for that teeny bopper crap.

Summary: 2006-06-12 08:39:00 This is quite an ordinary film with some mixed acting and a painfully contrived conclusion. But it starts off kinda well. (2.5/5 stars) I wrote a lengthier review on this in iMDB.

Strengths: NA
Weaknesses: NA
Summary: 2001-06-01 00:00:00 A relatively poor adaptation of Valmont or Dangerous Liasons. I was unimpressed with the acting or the character development, and frankly, the story's been done a few times already. However, maybe the contemporary spin on the story will attract younger viewers to read works which otherwise would not be accessible or easily understood. The plot went relatively underdeveloped with events happening because they needed to happen rather than as a consequence of other events.

Summary: 2001-02-05 00:00:00 This is a terrible, terrible movie. The acting is atrocious, the direction awful, and the dialogue painful to listen to. Do not waste your time with this pathetic rip off - get the real thing by renting "Dangerous Liasons."

Summary: 2001-02-01 00:00:00 This is a really good movie to see if you're looking for something different to see. I've never seen anything quite like Cruel Intentions before. Very unique and well acted by everyone. It's not for everyone though, it takes it to the limits and addresses topics which are still considered fairly taboo. If you're an open-minded person and you want to see something different then this is a good movie to go see.
