Review: I thought this movie was great. One it had great acting and Rose McGowan was GREAT!Also it showed the realities of school today. Not killing but how kids act towards eachother.

Summary: One of the best Dark Comedies in recent history
Review: If you are into movies like You've Got Mail, Beaches and City of Angels, don't see this movie. If you are one of the lucky ones who can appreciate Dark Comedies you will love this movie. Excellent acting and a great story line. This movie is very twisted and demented! Just what a Dark Comedy is all about! See it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great fun!
Review: I thought this was one of the most fun movies of the year. The script was great, the acting even better, great score, great soundtrack, great visuals, etc. It's the most colorful movie of the year but also the darkest. Not many people saw it but it deserves a chance. Looking for a cool movie with a black heart? Jawbreaker, it is. :)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This Movie's Stellar!!!!!
Review: Jawbreaker was the best movie my best frind and I've ever seen! Omigod, at times it was kinda creepy but overall it rocked! Rose McGowan played an awesome mega-witch as Courtney, while Julie Benz played the best ditz as Foxy! We both love this movie (even though we were like the only people who saw it!) and recommend it to only Beautiful, Cool, and Popular people like us! Oh yeah and our fave line is: Courtney : "Liz is dead! Do you know what that means?" FOXY: "Umm, your shoe-in for prom queen?"

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: People actually compare this to HEATHERS
Review: Ok, this was the most god awful movie i've ever seen. Well this, and Cruel Intentions. I feel sorry for anyone who has to sit and/or suffer through Jawbreaker. This script was terrible and I don't even see why its being released on video AND dvd. What a waste. Please, no more Rose McGowan movies. She is terrible and I just can't explain how much this movie sucked.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: EYE CANDY
Review: There's a demonic undertone to this black comedy that delineates the cruelty of teenagers; and also, their lack of self-understanding, and their commitment to only please themselves. For instance, the scene where hunky Ethan Erickson is waiting for his beloved Rose McGowan to arrive, he tries several different poses on the bed; resorts to stripping to his underwear, and then when she arrives, she baits him with a popsicle. You can tell he's uncomfortable in licking the popsicle, but you can also see the delight in McGowan's eyes in making him suck the popsicle. When she uses this to bait him as to what he would like done, we can see the cruelty in McGowan's character.
The idea of having someone die from choking on a humongous jawbreaker is original, but at the same time, the coolness and nonchalance the girls display in their friend's death is frighteningly realistic ... to a point. Not one to bash teenagers, we do need them after all?, the movie still makes us see all the things we hated about high school.
While McGowan is excellent in her bitch queen role, her destruction at the prom is almost as devastating as Carrie's in the well known horror book/flick. Rebecca Gayheart as the tried and true Julie sinks to McGowan's level in this destruction. Julie Benz is appropriately ditzy as Foxy and Judy Greer as Fern Mayo/Vylette also well cast. Erickson is a perfect choice for the self-absorbed and hedonistic Dane. Chad Christ as Julie's dramatic boyfriend does well, and once again shows how in high school, if you are a drama freak, you're probably homosexual.
The movie falls apart in several places, but does have some good cameos from Pam Grier as Det. Vera Cruz; Jeff Conaway as Foxy's dad, who does a cute Tiffany impersonation; and wastes William Katt and PJ Soles as the victim's parents. (Ironic, they both appeared in the original CARRIE).
Not a classic, but does pack some punch in what it's trying to say, it's just afraid to come out and say it: teenagers are cruel.
