Summary: Good twisted fun
Review: When I first saw this movie, I didn't know what to expect, it coming out about the same time as Carrie 2 and other "teen death" flicks. However, it was a very good movie, worth buying when the price drops. There were some tedious moments in the film, along with moments where you wish that a rabid squirrel would drop out of a tree and bite somebody, anybody.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: If your bored, u'll enjoy it
Review: When i first saw the preveiws for this movie, i just figured it was gonna be another stupid movie and a waste of time. But, surprisingly, it wasnt that bad. The storyline was hysterical. Who would of thought, killin ur best friend on her b-day by shoving a jawbreaker down her throat? Then on top of that, havin the biggest "nerd" find out u did it! Me and my friends had a ball crackin on it, but neverless we did enjoy it. Itz definatly not a must see, but if you n your friends are bored go out and rent it, u can get a lotta cracks out of this one!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I thought it would've been better...
Review: I thought this movie was good, but at the same time I thought it could've been better. The movie has some really talented and fresh faces in it, especially Julie Benz. The movie had a good concept to it, but I just thought that Rose McGowan's character as being the meanest of the mean was taken to an extent that was too far. Other than that, her deviousness was superb. I need to see this movie again since the soundtrack is great.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: this movie rocks !!!!!
Review: Jawbreaker is a must see movie. it's totally cool. Rose McGowan potrays her character perfectly, and i love the clothes she wears in the movie. Rose does a wonderful job playing an evil popluar girl, who is mean to an innocent, geeky girl. it reminds me of the pepole at my school. I think it was funny. Rose, keep up the great work ! you are my idol !

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Unoriginal And For The Most Part Bland
Review: This movie reminds me of the film that came out around ten years age called Heathers, only Jawbreaker isn't as good. This movie is quite prosaic and unoriginal. There's nothing new or surprising. The acting is fine, and the plot is okay, but that doesn't always add up to make a great film. Not recommended. Forgettable and predictable. Watch Heathers instead.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Funny,Hip,Cool
Review: This was a funny movie,but the bitchiest girl and we all know who that was,is a total snob!I thought this was a great and cool movie.My cousin and her friends told me I could'nt see this with them but I did and I did not see what the big deal was,Only some parts were gross!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Pam Grier......What were you thinking?!?
Review: The only justifiable and redeemable quality of this movie that is worth mentioning is that Pam Grier has a supporting role in it. Although her character was written as 2 dimentional and left no room for any depth or development, she did give an almost "oscar-worthy" performance when she slammed the jawbreaker on the table while trying to intimidate one of the girls. You go Pam! I watched in discomfort as Pam (who so brilliantly played "Jackie" in "Jackie Brown") tried to no avail to bring her lame character to life. I only saw the boredom in her eyes. The entire time i viewed this piece, i wanted to take over for the director and do this film some justice. There were so many opportunities to make this movie work but it seems as though the filmmakers had a creative blockage holding them back. A jawbreaker maybe?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Heathers Wannabe? Maybe.
Review: This movie was great...in a sick, twisted sort of way. Almost surreal. The acting wasn't bad at all, and Rose MCgowan portrayed the ultimate teen bitch! She's beautiful and pure EVIL! I love it! My high school was nothing like this, of course, but I could imagine some being like that. Jawbreaker is a must see if you like that dark type comedy.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: definitely nowhere near Heathers
Review: I think I missed something in this movie. I think it was laughter. I think I chuckled three times. That's it. I can't believe it's actually compared to Heathers. The only 2 good things about Jawbreaker were looking at Rose McGowan, and The Donnas! Skip this "comedy?".....

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not as funny as I heard.
Review: JAWBREAKER is a very interesting movie showing the dark (which is, I'm sorry to say, most) side of high school. Don't get me wrong, Rose McGowan and all the other actors and actresses are handsome and pretty, but that's about all that gets them along in this sorry remake of HEATHERS. Neither of them were really good, but this new adaption has reached a new low. The music and direction were awesome, but the actors were handed nothing and they acted accordingly. Even if they were bad, the script could have benefited from some wit and humor that actually makes you laugh. I don't want to snicker or smile, I want to be entertained enough so that I can enjoy by laughing. This movie didn't do that for me. JAWBREAKER is a ditz film!!
