She's All That (1999)
Awful formula film
Why anyone would spend money to watch this piece of crap is beyond me. It's incredibly weak in every aspect, acting, comedy, and romantic believe-ability. Technically it's mediocre and the plot as stated is a formula. Don't waste your time with this, anyone with a brain will see it as the steamy pile that it is.
Ghost World (2001)
The best adaptation of a comic, ever
As familiar as comic book fans are with movies made about their favorite series, it should come as no surprise that this movie would be the best ever done. From a superior comic comes a serious movie, extremely entertaining to both moviegoers, comic fans, and those who overlap the two categories. Ghost World is an amazing film, for many reasons, notably the performances of, oh, EVERYONE involved. There was only one lackluster showing, (brad Renfro as Josh,) and absolutely NONE that were bad. The supporting actors did an amazing job, as did Thora Birch, Scarlett Johansson, and Steve Buscemi. This is *not* your average teen movie. The plot is amazing, the message clear and realistic, the comedic relief hilarious, and the cinematography sublimely beautiful. Marketing could have been a *lot* better; I never saw a single ad until a few weeks before it was on video. A truly amazing film.
The Rebel Set (1959)
Merritt Stone?! Who's that?
I saw this movie on MST3K also. It's a really, really bad movie. The plot is implausible and the acting is awful. The question is raised in the MST episode, "who is merritt stone?" because he seems to be the train conductor, but that's actually Gene Roth. Merritt Stone is Carol's dad in Earth Versus the Spider, and the king in "the magic sword". Gene Roth is the guy everyone *thought* was merritt stone.
