Summary: Movie? Good. Extras? Not so much.
Review: There's not much left to say about "Heathers" that hasn't been said before...groundbreaking black comedy, witty dialogue, inspired story, and so on. It's really dated now, of course, but that's part of what makes it enjoyable to those of us who grew up in the 80's...or at least it's supposed to.The movie deserves its reputation, as one of the few, and maybe the best, "anti-John Hughes" teen movies, although it doesn't always seem to wear well. I loved the movie when it first came out, but I only liked it this time around. Maybe the original audience has grown up, and left the three Heathers behind; like actual high school, it doesn't carry as much weight anymore. As for the bonus features, it's been my experience that when a "classic" movie like this makes it to DVD 20 or so years later, the extras they manage to whip up aren't all that great, and this proves to be the case here. No mention whatsoever is made of the late Kim Walker (Heather Chandler) who died of cancer in 1999, which seemed a shame to me. She had the most pivotal role in the film, and no one even has one anecdote about working with her? Just as strange but more unsettling are Winona Ryder's comments about her experience on the film: she claims the screenplay is her favorite work of literature (huh?) and that her favorite scene is when Veronica is walking up the hill after the cow-tipping date, and Heather McNamara is getting date raped in the background. Um, okay.

Summary: Heathers
Review: I first saw this film on channel 4 in April 2003, at 12:15am. I couldn't keep my eyes of it. Since than i'v watched it at least once a day and brought the DVD. Christian Slater is brillient as JD and i kept me watching right up to the end. Winnona Ryder was fantastic too. This film was witty and funny but also dark and disterbing. I recodmend renting this film just give it a go you won't regret it.

Summary: One of my absolute favorites
Review: I watched this movie for the first time when I was in high school. I have easily watched this movie 100 times since and can't help but quote from it all the time. It's a tragedy that a movie like this can never be made again in this insanely politically correct, post-Columbine world...

Summary: Cult classic..the tins lacks slightly.
Review: The movie is great. I've loved Heathers ever since I saw it in 1990. I bought the tin which is nice, but I already have the DVD and I only bought the tin for the rumored alternate ending. Which is only a 'story board' on the DVD. It was never actually filmed. Also, I've heard alot of people talking about the DVD being defective- it's not defective- it's the encoding on it. I had a nice DVD player when I first got it and it played fine. When it broke and we replaced it with a CHEAP DVD player it wouldn't play. :( It's a nice collector's piece but, if you just want to watch the movie- buy the other one.

Summary: Perfect...except for one thing....
Review: I absolutely love this movie, I rented it, and fell in love with it. Despite one thing; Christian Slater; I can't stand him. He's pretty damn annoying, and seems too cocky in this movie.
But other then that, the movie is terrific.
The plot is:
There are three girls name Heather; Heather Chandler (Kim Walker), Heather McNamara (Lisanne Falk), and Heather Duke (Shannen Doherty), joining them is Veronica Sawyer (Winona Ryder). Winona meets a new guy at school named J.D. (Christian Slater). He tricks Veronica into killing some students at school, and making it look like a suicide.
The movie is well written,, acted, and directed perfectly.
For those of you who think Jawbreaker ripped off Heathers, what the hell are you thinking? Heathers and Jawbreaker are two completely different movies. I noticed a couple lines that were similar, but that movies are different.
Rent this movie, it's great! Dedicated to:
Kim Walker (Heather Chandler)
1968-2001 and Jeremy Applegate (Peter Dawson)
1968-2000

Summary: "I'm Worshiped at Westerburg, and I'm Only a Junior."
Review: For a lot of teenagers, popularity takes precedence over high SAT scores or early admission into an Ivy. It's literally viewed as a matter of life or death, and no film brings that truth to life as vividly as "Heathers." Winona Ryder is Veronica, who (along with Heather Duke, Heather McNamara, and Heather Chandler) belongs to Westerburg High School's most elite and coveted clique. These four young women supposedly epitomize the essence of cool, and earning their stamp of approval is as prestigious as getting knighted by Her Majesty. But things get nasty when Veronica violently clashes with one of the Heathers, and shortly thereafter the clique slowly collapses under its own weight. Of course, there's much more to the film's plot, which is a brilliant satire on high school, the firece competition to be popular and well-liked, and the faculty's inability to connect with their students. Pregnant with one-liners and armed with a Ginsu-sharp script, "Heathers" is a pitch-perfect comedy that's wickedly funny. The best performances definitely belong to Ryder and then-unknown Shannen Doherty. Those who rolled their eyes at the "happily-ever-after" sentiment of "Sixteen Candles" have bonded with this film over the years, turing it into a small scale classic. "Heathers" didn't exactly set the box office on fire upon release in 1989, but it's definitely grown in popularity since then. Give it a look, and you'll see why.
