Review of John Tucker Must Die (2006) by Hate Y — 26 Oct 2009
Rule 101 of any American High School drama is that the bully will get their comeuppance in the end and the geeky outsider will become the popular kid at the bullies expense. John Tucker Must Die fails miserably in this regard since all of the lead characters are shallow self-serving muppets with no redeeming qualities for whom everything turns out nice in the end.
The moral ambiguity could be forgiven though if the film had some snappy dialogue. But it doesn't, making it Heathers for heathens.
