If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
In my opinion The In Crowd is an interesting perception of the upper class of and social hierarchy. I absolutely loved Susan Ward's compelling performance as Brittany Foster, and she possessed a certain indescribable charisma. The whole movie kept me on the edge of my seat, and the incredible cruelty exhibited by Brittany was both despicable and intriguing. The character of Adrien, whom the viewers are supposed to side with was bizarre and incredibly exacerbating. She was obnoxious and completely psycho, but somehow managed to pull through and be sane in the end, which I still don't quite comprehend. If it had not been for the wonderful and intense acting job done by Susan Ward, I might not have enjoyed the film as thoroughly as I did, but nonetheless, I recommend it to everyone. It is one of my all time favorite movies. Although it was not widely successful, I think it deserved to be.
This movie isn't scary. The charactars aren't very well developed,and some parts of the story are boring. But it is interesting to seehow far some people will go in life to keep their status. Maybe withsome extra money, better writing and replaced actors it could havebeen a little bit better.
That should be the title of this movie. It's stupid, has no suspense and has absolutely no gore. But I kinda liked it. I guess it's something about Susan Ward. She is freaking gorgeous and should do more movies. Maybe something unrated or at least rated R so she can run around naked and maybe get sliced and diced. The dude from Nowhere is pretty funny(drunk guy).
*SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT*I saw this one in a nearly empty movie theater. It was me in the third row and two 11 or 12 year old girls three rows behind me. They said "Hey.". I said "Hey" back. We laughed that we were the only ones there and then the movie started. No more laughter.I was kind of hoping for a slightly sleazy thriller. But it was PG-13. I should have known better. So the outsider wants to be an insider with the pretty rich kids. The story was not interesting but the women were hot. I perked up during one scene on a boat when two of the "In Crowd" girls started to make moves on each other. The two little girls behind me started squirming in their seats and were yelling "Gross!". I was howling for more action. Unfortunately the PG-13 got in the way and spoiled the fun. Dang.This movie was all tease. It should have gone straight to cable, not a movie theater. For a late night cable flick, I probably would have watched it until I fell asleep. Instead I snoozed in the movie theater until I was the only one left. zzzzzzzzzz..
