Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Gordon-11 This film tells the story of a group of high school girls who are the spotlights of the school. Their birthday prank of kidnapping their friend goes wrong, and accidentally kills one of them. They go at length to cover their murder up.Right from the very beginning, we see the killing of Liz. The scene looking into the car trunk is very grotesque, and I'm still disturbed by the unsettling image. After that, the film tries to maintain a light hearted tone. The characters are interesting, especially Fern who makes such a great transformation from a shy and unnoticeable girl to a fully fledged attention lover. I like Julie as well because she's the voice of sanity and integrity. The terrifying teen when is a bit too much because she is so self centred that she could not see her grave mistake, and then does spine chilling things subsequently, which is quite sickening. Overall, I think "Jawbreaker" is a bit too morbid for a high school film.
Gary55379 I have seen lots of movies in my 42 years, but this movie Jawbreaker has something I find to be very odd.Isn't it odd that there there is a character named "Vylette" and also an actress in this film named "Vylette"? Of course, a movie could have a character named "Bob" and an actor named Bob, but with such an unusual name, Vylette, how can it be? I did a search, and unless I did it wrong, which is very possible, because I don't even get "Jawbreaker" as a hit when I search for a character named "Vylette", there has never been a movie with a character named Vylette.Am I getting the name wrong? If anyone knows how this came to be, please let us all know! Also, if anyone knows why "jawbreaker" doesn't show up in the search results when searching for movies with a character named Vylette, that would be appreciated as well.Thanks, Gary
Cablebot3000 This film is sort of similar to mean girls (well, mean girls would be similar to this), but a lot more daring and darker. The characters make the movie what it is. Rose McGowan does a great job as a evil, manipulating bitch who stops at nothing to live her perfect life. The rest of the cast also did really good. The storyline is over the top, but it makes a great riot. Plus, the film actually has some morale to it, showing the good and bad side to human nature. If you like cult films, watch it. And definitely watch it if you are a fan of anyone in the cast. I rate this 7/10. Rated R for sexuality,language and violence-all involving teens.
moonspinner55 A group of ultra-hip teenage schoolgirls (from Reagan High!) accidentally kill one of their own in a birthday prank gone awry; they struggle to keep their deed a secret even after a nerdy student discovers the truth. Darkly comic tale, brightly-produced yet full of cynicism, has brief moments that go out on a limb, but is ultimately a rather formulaic "Heathers" knock-off. Holds interest nearly half the way, however the wrap-up is right off the assembly-line. It certainly benefits from a good cast, with the central performances by Rose McGowan and Rebecca Gayheart spot-on, however prominently-billed P.J. Soles, William Katt and Marilyn Manson hardly appear at all. *1/2 from ****
