As Good As It Gets

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

BAD REPUTATION is nothing more than a shot-on-video copy of CARRIE, made without an ounce of that film's style or direction. Instead this is badness through and through, limited in execution from beginning to end due to budgetary constraints. It's your usual story of high school angst and violence with a little bit of murder added to the mix; it's generally very poor and the almost entire lack of content makes it a chore to watch.

Where did I go wrong, please let me know. I have seen some reviews that were very good about this movie so I ordered it straight away, but was I disappointed after watching it. It could have been a rape/revenge flick but it failed. Failed in all ways. When the gangrape takes place nothing happens, you just see the boys there faces, that's all, in this time were movies are explicit it is a major mistake to show nothing, nothing at all, no flesh, no underwear. When she's out for revenge she kills those who raped her, again, all off screen and with no blood. When the knife cuts someone's throat, well, no blood is shown, when she pulls the knife out, clean, no blood on the knife. When she hits someone with a book, blood flows around to hit the wall, man, I didn't know that a book was more lethal then a knife! The only good thing is that there isn't a good ending. Again, childish movie, never scary, never entertaining. the best part is the DVD cover...

Horrible movie, just plain AWFUL. This movie sucks almost worse than Titanic. Almost. Not only is the acting bad, but you quickly grow to hate the actors as well, all of them. The cinematography is also absurdly bad. The worst of all is probably the sound. Obviously the idiots that made this crap have idea what in the sam hill they're doing. The movie sounds awful! Every single person that appears in this film is obviously an idiot in real life too. If you were to find the stupidest people you could find, then hit them in the head with a hammer 20 times, then you would get close to how stupid the people are in this movie. This movie sucked a lot in many ways. Really, really, really bad and awful.

This is probably the lowest I've seen in budgets on film. It's not bad visually. But, man it hurts my ears throughout most of the movie. I should have brought my ear plugs. The sound technicians needed to work on those certain echoes on those certain details in each scene, and the car noises in the background suddenly changes in between takes. That got annoying, but I had to suck it up, and watch the rest of the movie with the volume turned down. Not much blood for this slasher film as implied on the cover. But that didn't really matter to me. The movies biggest strength was the dialog and it was rather witty and intriguing to hear what the characters would say next. Character development for the teens were actually pretty darn good. Especially for the character Michelle and the guy who gang banged her with his buddy. Revenge is always stimulating as in most revenge films. But it wasn't really worth watching again. Although original in story-line. I just felt some of the methods in Bad Reputation were a little too old school, as if it wanted to answer back to the slasher films of the 80's. Nightmare on Elm Street parts 1 through infinity and Heather's, for example.But it does tend to reflect on current events in American schools. Kids these days get killed for less in school than what was portrayed here. But I finished this film with a sense of emptiness. I thought it was fair to give this a 4/10
