ab dc If you haven't watched the first movie then...I'm not sure what to really say. Okay, I seen CI and the sequel doesn't make sense. In the original movie (might be a spoiler but not a big one) Sebastian wants to have sex with Kathryn because she is unattainable to him. They never engaged in intercourse and that is said in the movie, Cruel Intentions. Now, in the second movie Kathryn and Sebastian and some other chick have a threesome... Doesn't make sense. Also in the original, Sebastian had never been in love or fallen for anyone until he met Annette. But, in the sequel he falls in love with some girl ... My point is the sequel is trying to sort of be like original but the facts have been rewrittened. Even if you had seen the 2nd one and went on to watch the first one it wouldn't make sense and vice versa. So why would they reverse key situations? The movie would've been better off without 2 and 3.
Morbius Fitzgerald Okay before I get any flack, yes, I hated Cruel Intentions 1, it was an insult to everything that the original story of Dangerous Liaisons stood for. So today I felt bored and wanted to watch a movie with the full knowledge I'd hate it, its sequel.Now I didn't like this film because it had good acting, great writing and an interesting story. No. In fact, all of these things are horrendous but that just adds on to the magnificent whirpool of idiocy that is Cruel Intentions 2. This is really one of those movies that is so bad that it actually is entertaining.The plot of this one is kind of a rehash of the first where Sebastian goes after a "virgin" and tries to seduce her but falls in love with her in the process while her sister Kathryn tries to make a freshman the class slut.I know what you are thinking, what about that plot could possibly be funny? Kathryn is played by Amy Adams who plays her part with an entirety of her trying to look and sound sinister. Yes, Amy Adams tries to be sinister. But it gets better, literally every minute this movie is on, it assaults you with something stupid that you just have to laugh at it. My absolute favourite scene is where Kathryn as the student body president has her own minions that hide in back rooms of the school looking at a slide show of all the new kids and how she will devise a scheme to get them to fit in to what they want down to the exact detail. Yes, in a high school, this movie wants you to believe that the popular kids spend their time looking at slide shows of unpopular kids and scheme plans to "destroy their reputation".Thats not enough? The first day in school a girl chokes on chewing gum after getting the hiccups. The headmaster's daughter saves her life and some random kid that you'll never see again picks her up and takes her out of the hall Knight in Shining armour style while Amy Adams gives them a death stare. I could go on and on with how many awkwardly funny moments there are in this movie because, as I said earlier, this movie assaults you with that amount of stupid.This is a short review because I literally have nothing else to say about it except that this may be my vote for the funniest movie ever made. I swear you will be tired of laughing at the end of this film. It was made as a pilot to a TV show aimed at teenagers (that was never picked up) but I think this was written for kinder-gardeners. If you want a laugh, go check this out. If you're a fan of the original and want to see a "worthy prequel", you're better off avoiding this film.
ltrotta This review also contains a spoiler of the first movie -- so if you haven't seen either movie and want to but don't want the spoilers, please don't read this review!While this movie is supposed to be about Christian and Kathryn meeting for the first time, the movie is a poor copy of the first Cruel Intentions. The actors that they had portray Ryan Phillippe's Christian and Sarah Michelle Gellar's Kathryn are very poor substitutes indeed. Neither can pull off the smarmy, snooty rich-kid attitude that the original actors did. It's absolutely appalling that some of the dialog was verbatim -- not so much between Christian and Kathryn, but if you listen closely enough you'll recognize it. There are also inconsistencies in the plot - if this were truly the first meeting of Christian and Kathryn, then why is it that Christian fell in love with a girl at the end of the movie? He supposedly was supposed to be in love for the first time in the original movie (with Reese Witherspoon's character).Also, the tie-in with the photography/"You could be a model" comment at the end was totally lame and didn't add anything at all. Overall, this movie was a waste of time. I can't believe they made a Cruel Intentions 3.
jebakerii I can't believe this movie received financial backing. The original Cruel Intentions was unique, slightly disturbing & quite interesting. This movie is... well... awful!!!! The storyline makes no sense... it just just bounces all over the place and you're left wondering, "Where's this movie going?" Why did those two girls get in the shower with Sebastian? What was the whole point with his Dad & Stepmom? The whole fund raising for the school? It just made NO SENSE!!! Even as confusing as the storyline is, the "twist" ending is totally obvious and lame. All the actors were TERRIBLE! Everyone related to this movie should be BANNED from film making by the actor's guild.
