It's a lot of fun.

If you enjoyed the dialogue in Juno then you'll go for Diablo Cody's screenplay for Jennifer's Body. The witty, sarcastic,say-what-you're-thinking pop culture savvy dialogue is back.

Some notes:

-despite all the press Megan Fox is getting this is very much Amanda Seyfried's movie (told from her POV) and she gives the best performance.
-J.K. Simmons is hilarious as a half-wit, out of the loop teacher.
-Megan Fox is good (and sexy) and quite scary at times (Some of you may think of this before going the amusement park route with her pictures). Although Iwouldn't consider her performance great by any means. She gives a Marilyn Monroe like performance here. When she delivers Diablo Cody's dialogueit's almost if she's pleasantly surprised she got it right.
-Ample cleavage and yes there is a lesbian kiss for those wondering.
-Plenty of snappy one liners.
-There's gore but it's balanced with some shots that'll leave the violence to one's imagination.


All in all a fun time at the movies. It's not Citizen Kane but it's plenty of fun and laughs.

Verdict: *** (out of 4)

Let me guess it was full of pimpled faced teenagers and 30+ year old sweaty
obese men.

I forgot to wear my beret and superfluous square black-rimmed glasses to the show.
