This movie is mean spirited

| Jul 14, 2023

She's All That remains an iconic text of the late 90s: anchored by two likeable leads, the film has bad gender politics but features two of the best dance sequences in YA film

| Aug 25, 2021

...a sluggish comedy that contains few, if any, elements worth getting excited about or interested in...

| Original Score: 1/4 | Feb 13, 2021

While far from a feminist masterpiece, She's All That stands the test of time better than most of its '90s contemporaries in the genre.

She's All That is so rooted in our cultural understanding of teen movies that a world without it now seems unimaginable.

| Jan 25, 2019

A high school drama that accurately reflects the intense pressures that 17-year-olds feel about their senior prom: from whom they are going with, to what direction their lives will take afterward.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 10, 2017

A laughable film and one that doesn't need a spoof to show how idiotic it tends to be.

| Original Score: B- | Sep 7, 2011

Uneven "ugly duckling" teen flick.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 28, 2010

Iscove's film has its own brand of charm and is reasonable enough in its ambitions that it's awfully hard to resist.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Aug 7, 2007

She's All That feels like it could have been made by a team of septuagenarians from the glory days of American Intl. Pictures.

It's often impossible to distinguish what's meant to be cartoonish from what's meant to be dramatic, but the confusion seems appropriately adolescent.

She's All That is not likely to make a mark or be remembered by anyone for very long, but it's harmless enough and useful for finding the finer points of this genre.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | May 26, 2006

A formula flick.

| Feb 9, 2006

The tempo of the film does well to cure the unlikely romance with just the right amount of anxiety and the leads -- especially Cook, who is wonderfully promising here -- create an earnestly heartfelt chemistry.

With She's All That, we see how true garbage may nevertheless teem with a life of its own.

Full Review | Mar 3, 2005

It's wretchedly predictable, inconsistently funny and not always well-written. It's enjoyable enough, but a truly good movie it's not.

| Original Score: C+ | May 22, 2003

Considering that all of us (even, one surmises, the young viewers smack in the hairlines of this movie's demographic gunsights) can guess where this story is going, why is the last third of this film so unrelentingly slow?

The dance stops eventually, and then those darn kids start talking again. Way to ruin the mood.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 8, 2003

Contains just enough of a message about self-worth and honesty to lend some moral nutrition to the entertainment calories it provides so capably.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Nov 7, 2002
