Pretty darn good flick.

Rating: 9/10 (1 April 1999)

Larisa wasn't in the movie as much as I'd hoped. She was very attractive, but played the traditional popular spiteful sophomore. She flaunted lines like "Oh, you're so cute. What was your name again?" when Levitt was trying to teach her French. She wore lots of small, short, and tight clothing which was definitely a plus. However, the lack of development in Larisa's character and the over development of the butthead personality where things did happen, stunted my enjoyment of the scenes she was in.
Kat was my favorite character, due to the fact that I feel I can relate to some of her dealings in life. She was knocked up by Keegan's character one time, and she decided not to do anything anyone else was doing. This is the cause of her rebellious attitude. She is definitely a hardcore rebel with a marvelous body to boot. She executed the role of Kat perfectly, which made the movie what it is.
The rest of the cast was full of stereotypical sluts (Larisa's best friend for example), whiggers, jocks, Starbucks coffee drinkers, nerds, and others. For a relatively old (2 years) script, the movie did a very good job of portraying a 1999 high school. The movie was a tad on the slow side, but I only looked at my watch once during the entire movie (the more looks, the worse the movie).
I really loved "Ten Things I Hate About You". The translation of Shakespeare into a modern work is a tough one. The writers did a magnificent job. The acting was perfect, especially with Julia Stiles' Kat. Perfect in every case except for Larisa Oleynik's Bianca. Don't get me wrong, she's a wonderful actress especially in 3rd Rock and Alex Mack. However, she did not pull off the job of Bianca Stratford as I had hoped she would.
C+ for Larisa's job. A- for everyone else's.
