good back-story, and good acting

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

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

Something Busta Rhymes was singing about (and probably other musicians) ... but 90s references aside (which you know makes sense since the movie was made back then), this is a really good dark comedy. Not sensational and will not go down into the classic Hall of Fame or anything, but one of those movies you can watch and enjoy.Really nice cast too. Julie Benz is probably the one most recognize now, although Rose had a very "charming" TV role she could play with too. Apart from that, there is Judy Greer in a very different role ... for her at least. But she pulls it off. And I think she's pretty no matter what anyway. Not just another teenage movie then ...

This movie's get go leads spectator to think it'll be ANOTHER teen movie, given that atmosphere is much like every other teen movie. Some scenes after, I could see it was something else. Possibly inspired in 1996's "I Know What You Did Last Summer", this film tells a story about some crazy girls that accidentally killed their friend, so they try everything to cover that up. In fact, writers and cast made this movie not a teen one, but an adult version of the thriller I mentioned, so it's not a surprise for me to see how much teenagers disliked this picture when it was released. Also, it's strange/cool to see Rebecca Gayheart playing a normal girl, since it is hard to imagine her in a normal character, after what she portrayed in "Urban Legend". One of my few complaints is the lack of interesting plot to run 87 minutes-- this story could've been told in less than an hour. Besides, its final scene is almost identical to "Cruel Intentions"'s. Average movie, just to spend some time.

Jawbreaker is a teen movie about image, deceit, manipulation, and murder.The good. Very interesting story and characters. Nice intrigue. Well done evil plan. A teen flick with it's own dark-glamour style.The actors. Rose McGowan, Rebecca Gayheart, Julie Benz, and Judy Greer are great. I have to mention though, that Ethan Erickson is hilarious in a straight face kind of way as the dumb jock.The bad. A bit over-glamorous, but it fits the flick. Serves us some clichés.The ugly. Zack is too simple a character.The result. A nice teen movie that can be watched by anybody considering the seriousness of the subject.

I'm a huge fan of teenage flicks from CAN'T HRADLY WAIT-like to BUFFY-like. it had occurred to me when i was eagerly finding such teen movies which can make me enjoying. i was not that sure by the time i got it first. but i was completely wrong when i turned on.first of all, the colors which the film shows are a real attraction whole time. jawbreakers, girls' clothes, retro sequences.... i just like it and was lured by it.acting is also fresh and Rebecca is so good...some scenes are really funny as hell...if u choose this as your teen movie, u won't regret, i bet.my overall : 8/10
