Great Film overall

Absolutely Brilliant!

A different way of telling a story

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

nice. and useful. nice for the science to give a smart, fanny, ironic, seductive film about high school experiences. useful because it gives realistic characters and situations. and because the actors real acting. it is one of films who preserves memories. for students and teachers. who has the perfect tools for reinvent typologies and cases. for be wise trip in the heart of tragedies, solutions and success. for not be only a nice comedy but a sort of support for reflection about realistic young men looking for cheat as the reasonable solution for solve the fight against school. and this detail did "Cheats" a special film. so, see it ! maybe, only for the memories about a slice of life.

I'm generally not a fan of high school comedies, they rely heavily on humor in bad taste and rarely stray far from clichéd story lines and characters and downright dull dialog. However, I've had my share of guilty pleasures, particularly when I was still in high school myself. Seeing the oh-so-recognizable teacher figures get their butts kicked always cheered me up and an occasional laugh could also be the case. These movies only work if at least one of the characters is an instantly likable one, this was not the case in 'Cheats', especially not the protagonist. Of course, it didn't help that the actor in play was one of the most irritating, no-talent, arrogant kids I've ever seen in a comedy.To act in a comedy is no joke, it's hard to be funny: the delivery has to be just right or the material goes to waste. In this case there wasn't much good stuff to begin with and the jokes that were half-funny were screwed up professionally by the cast.This movie felt 3 hours long, the director never heard of pacing obviously. Stay away from this one, there are many other enjoyable teen comedies out there such as 10 Things I Hate About You, Who's Your Daddy and Superbad.

Ok the different ideas for cheating is nothing new, but the dialouge in this movie, especially the lines of Handsome Davis, were rediculously funny. This movie has one of the most memorable scenes of any movie i have ever watched (I'LL TAKE IT RIGHT NOW). I definetly think everyone should see this one. Its just hillarious.

This is not your typical movie about cheating. It had much more to offer. These four kids cheat their way through high school, but the ways they do it are not farfetched like some other movies. Very funny movie. Watching this movie takes me back to when i was in high school. Plus Fulton from the Mighty Ducks is in it, but he has blonde hair.Rating: Eight Thumbs Up
