Sexy, cruel, powerful- A superb feature film of the 90's
22 May 2006
Cruel Intentions is about two step siblings by the names of Sebastian and Kathyrn, who make cruel and tasteless actions on the people they hook up with. Kathryn decides to make a bet on Sebastian by ending a young girl's virginity, but things get all mixed up when Sebastian regrets his bet and starts to fall for the girl. This is an excellent film of 1999 that boosted a lot of the actors careers up that were involved in the movie. This is Ryan Phillipe's best performance by far as well as Sarah Michelle Gellar's. The acting couldn't of been any better in Roger Kumble's first film, which is his best also since none of his other projects have been up to the caliber of Cruel Intentions. The screenplay that was written by him also was very well done with nicely used dialogue from the actors. One of the strongest points in the film that I haven't mentioned yet, is that the soundtrack was amazing. "Color Blind" and "Bittersweet Symphony" were perfect songs that were used greatly in the film. Overall, this is a powerful and sexy film that is actually a little more mature than a teenager movie, in my opinion. I highly recommend it.
