The Jerk Theory Trailers

An aspiring recording artist, Adam, is burned by a bad relationship experience and decides that if women won't respond to the "nice guy" then he'll be "the jerk." This is wildly successful with meaningless relationships, but when Adam meets and falls for Molly, who doesn't fall for his jerk routine, Adam is forced to reconsider his dating philosophy.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

I recently watched this film on Netflix, its a funny high school comedy that if you like the genre of movies on guys trying to get with girls or even if your in high school and can't get a girl you should definitely take out an hour and a half and watched this movie. Its worth the time to watch it. It's a great soundtrack by Josh Henderson, and for those guys who are dick to girls to get in there pants this will be pretty much the story of your life. So yeah take the time and watch it sometime. I gave this a 7 out of 10 so yeah and I'm a movie collector, and definitely going to be adding this film to my collection.

This movie was actually pretty good and a lot better then i thought. I thought it was gonna be some really cheesy movie but it was actually pretty good. The beginning actually started off pretty good but towards the middle I think it got a little cheesy. Josh Henderson's acting was also pretty good and the guys who played his friends were also pretty good and convincing but Jen Dewwan or whatever the girl who plays Molly's name is, her acting was not very convincing and I think it actually made Josh Henderson's acting look bad. She definitely needs some lessons cause her acting was CHEESY and lame it literally looked like she was acting in some parts or trying to hard. But the storyline was good and it was pretty funny but towards the middle- end it got kind of lame. Though not as bad as I thought it would be.

For some reason it has the feel of a first-time film maker got lucky. Add to this the plugging of Josh Henderson's debut album and it almost becomes the sort of film where a talented student with a camera just wants to show off. It's strange to compare a film with such known actors to the unknowns of the first high school musical, but you could easily imagine the lead characters as Troy and Gabriella.Getting past the amateur feel the film is likable if not very memorable. The spin of "boy meets girl, boy hates girl" has scope for originality but by halfway through this is just another regular chick flick. This in itself is not a bad thing and Henderson and Dewan play a convincing and believable performance.It's certainly worth watching but don't expect to be blown away.

This film has zero charm or wit (even for a teenage film). The director seems to lack a basic understanding of film conventions, character development and comic timing. The characters are bland and one dimensional. This film is clearly aimed at the teenage market, but the lack of charm, lame and unbelievable characters and formulaic plot will fail to entertain anyone. Spare yourself and avoid this movie. There are plenty of teenage films that are much more fun.Not to mention that this film implies that only one girl in a million isn't a crazy, clingy, bimbo.
