Lutz's dialogue is consistently sharp and snappy, and the large cast forms a sparkling ensemble under Junger's adept direction.

It goes straight to the top of the class. O can there be such a thing as too keen a guilty pleasure, particularly when the whole genre is knowingly pitched to audiences as a trashophile's delight? No, there cannot.

10 Things I Hate About You is a brilliant romantic comedy with excellent character development. The initially tough and headstrong main character evolves into a more open, emotional, and genuinely lovable person in a way that feels natural and heartfelt. The dialogue is sharp and funny without ever becoming cheesy—a rare strength in teen rom-coms. If you’re a fan of teenage romances with depth, charm, and humor, this is one of the best picks out there. Highly recommended!

Should watch while in the mood of love. See how a guy get a girl, it sweet. I like it a lot so nothing to say much.

What really elevates it, though, is the film's sharp wit and tender heart, both of which are conveyed beautifully by the fresh-faced cast.

First-time feature director Gil Junger gets a lot of laughs in the long setup, but the story eventually reverts to an almost typical high-school romance. Not quite "Clueless."

And yet ... gee, the movie is charming, despite its exhausted wheeze of an ancient recycled plot idea.

The movie's afraid of [Stiles], turning Kat from riot grrrrl to Solid Gold dancer in the time it takes to drop one Notorious B.I.G. song at that house party - which is why it's the Spam of processed teen movies.

It wimped out by blanding down the story and the characters to the point where she isn't really a shrew and he isn't really a maniac.

"10 things I Hate about You" is a really fun movie. Good plot, interesting scenery, fun gags. It definitely feels like it borrows from other films around this era, but it all comes together well. I give it an A, make a point to go see this movie.

"싫은데 너무너무 싫은데, 근데 싫어할 수가 없어. 좋아."대충보면 흔한 로코, 알고보면 셰익스피어와 <말괄량이 길들이기> 오마쥬.음악 꽤 잘썼따. 특히 "I want you to want me"조고래가 애기때를 볼 수 있어.200922 (3.0)-1. "아빠가 자기 인생을 마음대로 할 수 없다고 내 인생을 마음대로 하려고 하지 말아요!"2. "너도 생각보다 형편없진 잖아." outcast 들의 진짜 사랑.3. "넌 항상 그렇게 이기적이니? 예쁘다고 해서 사람들을 막대해도 되는 건 아냐."4. ㅋㅋㅋ 조셉 고든 래빗 너무 귀엽다. 어린 소년의 열정과 순수함과 무모함이 그대로 드러난다.5. 말괄량이 길들이기 현대판이네. 떠난 엄마 때문에 차가워진 소녀에게 사랑을 알려주는 놈팽이 ㅋㅋㅋ (라고 생각했는데 찾아보니 진짜 이 작품은 말괄량이 길들이기의 현대판이고 주인공 이름 카트리나->캣 비앙카 그대로, 페트루치오->페트로 ㅋㅋㅋ 였다 ㅋㅋ 세상에) 고전은 배신하지않는다. 명작은 시대를 타지 않는다. 멋지다. 문학 선생님이 셰익스피어를 운운하고 소네트를 숙제로 준 것은 우연이 아니었다. 완전한 오마쥬네.6. "You're just good to be true." ㅠㅠㅠ 됐고 사랑한다.7. 순간 드는 생각이 호아킨 피닉스가 조커 연기를 할 때 히스레저에 대한 오마쥬로 저 계단에서의 사랑스러운 세레나데를 따라한게 아닐까 싶다. 똑 비슷한 느낌으로 뛰어다니네 ㅋㅋ 경비원들을 피해가며 캣에게 세레나데를 (근데 이거 돈받고 사기 연애라 ... 감동하기엔 ㅠㅠ)8. 페인트볼 장면에서 나오는 ost 되게 좋네 노래가!9. 저 시대에 이게 흔했는지는 모르겠는데 캣은 "페미니스트"이고 여성 보컬에 남자 백업보컬/댄서들이 있는 밴드를 좋아한다. 귀여워. 그리고 위선적인 여자 여자이던 비앙카는 친구와 가족과 사랑을 위해 주먹질을 멋지게 날린다. 캬. 이게 저 시대의 영화라니.10. "내가 가장 싫은 건, 당신이 싫지 않다는거에요." 속았고 가짜일지도 모르는 사랑인데 그래도 좋은 건 좋은거라 맘아픈 캣 ㅠㅠㅠ11. 펜더를 사주다니 예이!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!12.
