Actually pretty fun.

I'm not sure what I was expecting coming into this, the early scenes suggested it was about be a long 87 minutes ahead. However, pleasantly, 'John Tucker Must Die' is entertaining. It's most definitely not one to take solemnly, but if you see it for what it is you might have a decent time.

The cast work delightfully together, even if they do - along with all the other characters - act cliché more often than not. Brittany Snow is surprisingly impressive as Kate, her body language and facial expressions are actually perfect for the role. Ashanti (Heather), Sophia Bush (Beth) and Arielle Kebbel (Carrie) support solidly. Jesse Metcalfe (John) seems to play the same role every time, but there's no denying he connects with Kate well.

Very silly and not a masterpiece by any definition, yet there is much to sit back with and enjoy. A mindless comedy.
