Jennifer's BodySo I was watching this thing set in a high school with an evil girl and witty dialogue and girls kicking ass, it was awesome. It was called Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Jennifer's Body is basically a 100 minute long episode of Buffy but like totally not good, I'm mean it was like "Hitler" bad . Like total "crocs fashion faux-pas" and everything. If only it'd been awesome like *insert super obscure indie band here*. >_>
It seems writer Diablo Cody decided to ignore the most people's criticism of her overly pop-culture filled, witty dialogue that was present in Juno and just go all out. Jennifer's Body is just too much, where as Jason Reitman, in Juno, was able to balance the hipster slang, indie music and overall "bubblegummy" feel of the film and turn it into a fun little indie flick, Karyn Kusama did not.
Adam Brody is great as a Satan worshiping indie rockstar that has just casually decided that the only way to break in to the business was to make a human sacrifice. Juno tackled some pretty serious issues, in Jennifer's Body the fate of indie rock bands in the industry is the closest thing this movie gets to any kind of social critic. Although the horny teen might argue that, "Megan Fox is soo hawt!! This movie roxxorz!!!" they are wrong. Even short skirts and cleavage shots cannot save this movie from Fox's horrible cringe worthy acting, seriously she's actually shitty, she's like Troll 2 shitty.
Don't See It
