Since you are doing the best schlock that the 90s has to offer, you really need to react to Wild Things! It’s truly the standard bearer for these types of films

maikeru

looking at the thumbnail is like I found a picture of my half-sister (if I had one) that I was not meant to see.. or was I? 🫢 ^^

ComradQuestion

now please release the cursed thumbnail with George on the cover.

This is a movie of mine which got the largest degrade over the years - from seeming so seriously cool when I was 15 in high school, to being so funny and cringe now ;) But still brings back good memories of listening to the soundtrack a lot back then.

Josip Buretić

Nah I'll pass on this one but wishing everyone who will watch it a lot of fun 😊

Matt O'Keefe

Oh, man! Waiting for "Buffy No!" to be said by Simone. This will be fun.

Stoodles

This movie hits VERY different now than it did when I was a teenager lol. Its so cringy now and the acting is terrible. Back then I loved it for...different reasons.

Darren Harrison

The guy (Ryan Phillippe) dated Reese Witherspoon during the production and married her, six months pregnant, in June 1999. They divorced in 2008 and have two children together (Deacon Reese Phillippe and Ava Elizabeth Phillippe). They met at a 21st-birthday party for Reese Witherspoon in 1997, as the +1 of a mutual friend. She said in interviews that upon meeting Ryan, she asked him, "Are you my birthday present?" He was well known in the latter part of the 1990s because he was also in the original "I Know What You Did Last Summer" where he played the boyfriend of the Sarah Michelle Gellar character. Nostalgia is very high for me with this movie. I remember who I saw it in 1999, where we were, and our impressions. There was a 20th anniversary rerelease in 2019 where I attended a screening while on a work assignment in Tampa, FL where my reaction was very different.

Matt O'Keefe

They maybe should watch Dangerous Liaisons from 1988 with John Malcovich, Glenn Close, Uma Thurman, and Michelle Pfeiffer as the four leads . The better and classier of this movie. It was one of Uma's first movies.

maikeru

I thought they met the first time when they did the movie / fell in love during filming.

Mastervodo

"Buffy! What are you doing!?" ..... almost immediately followed by a TNG reference. It's too bad on the YT edit, George couldn't have inserted (multiple times) a little clip of SMG as Daphne in the Scooby Doo movie saying, "That's So Mean!"

PastaDon

"You can put it anywhere" That's so unfair, that should be off-limits.. Don't like her, she doesn't play correctly.. lol My God, to be a teen in the 90's.. was better to be a College student that decade..

Robert Cooper

It's weird that this movie hangs on. It's one of the most successful of the "X but Y" movies. There was a whole cottage industry of "let's remake a movie but (teen, black, gay)" in the late 80s to mid 90s. It's not nearly as good as "Dangerous Liaisons", but the hamminess pushes it well into camp, which is probably more what the plot deserves.

Matt O'Keefe

It has been a long time since I saw this, like when it first came out was maybe the only time. I am not sure I noticed the Picard reference when I first saw it

maikeru

George, some of us suggested films with no happy end / where the bad guys win - it'd be a spoiler if we said which ones 😁

Jason Pratt

Man I feel dirty and not in a good way. 😂 I used to love this one. I think Fallen would be one you two would enjoy that really has no bearing on this reaction but based off previous viewings.

zona999

It's a crime that they saw this goofy film before the truly great "Dangerous Liaisons"(1988), the film Cruel Intentions is based on. Dangerous Liasons stars Michelle Pfeifer, John Malkovich, and the incredible Glenn Close in Oscar nominated performances-with Keanu Reeves and Uma Thurman in supporting roles. It's fantastic and George and Simone must now see it! Not just because it's such a good film but also because I don't think anyone else has reacted to it!

Scott CineRam

Reese and Ryan weren't married yet, but they were dating at the time. He convinced her to play Annette, otherwise she might not have been in it.

Mastervodo

I was thinking the same today! +1 on Dangerous Liasons. Also has nobody's favorite actor, Canoonoo Revals or something. Some Canadian dude.

Jul_Belton

There was a recent series on Amazon based on this movie. Sean Patrick Thomas (Ronald) is one of the stars in it. I couldn't quite finish it.

Paul Peavler

As mentioned, this is based on Dangerous Liaisons, so this is really a movie about class politics. It’s why it’s set in Manhattan to a bunch of socialites. It’s why Kathryn has a coke problem, being the drug of choice on Wall Street. If you read some of the recently released emails of a certain island owner, so many of those people talk and behave exactly like most of the people in this movie. Annette is the only one truly from the outside. Sebastian has never known anything other than this world of deception and manipulation and obsession with appearance and reputation, but when he meets Annette he’s finally exposed to a different perspective, and it obviously changes him.

Jeff K.

I'm sure that Simone always wanted to be Buffy, but I have to think that thumbnail wasn't EXACTLY the version she had in mind.

cincassette

There's something I just really love about movies from this era, around the turn of the Millennium. A couple more great picks: - Election (1999) - The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999) - The Ice Storm (1997) - The Rules of Attraction (2002) - The Virgin Suicides (1999) - Punch-Drunk Love (2002) - Safe (1995) - The Life Aquatic with Steve ZIssou (2004) The previous poll winner Malkovich very much falls into this category too, and I hope you'll eventually check out the other movies from that selection also. - One Hour Photo (2002) - Mulholland Drive (2001) - Adaptation (2002) (particularly after Malkovich)

Dan

Wild Things also did the super twisty thing before it became really popular. (Watch to the very end of the credits if you've not seen it...)

Dan

Not as many OMGs and Jesuses from Simone was I was expecting. I think this film is pretty fun for all it's OTTness and cartoonishness.

Chris

Can never tell if Phillippe realizes that actually he's a comedic actor, doing comedy. If yes, kudos to him, because the sense that he doesn't realize it is a big part of what makes it so hilarious.

Stanley Etienne

I also would recommend reacting to Dangerous Liaisons just like the previous commenters. It's the original and best version of this story.

Tall Paul

Seconded, I really like Dangerous Liaisons (1988). Like this but with tier one acting. Strictly speaking, not quite the original. But if we can't get Simone to read Dune we have no chance with 18th century French literature. I appreciate Simone not spoiling "Buffy but not Buffy" though.

Jeff K.

Election is a great shout. Would love to see them check it out. Hilarious movie and - while it's not exactly saying much given he's not a particularly gifted actor - easily the best performance of Chris Klein's career (even though he's basically just playing Oz again, only dumber).

Gryff

I am disappointed that we don't get sexy cringe George in the thumbnail!

Ashton Lewis

George is sexy 100% of the time, he needs some rest every now and then

Tony E Crumpton

Watching our faithful rectors cringe instead of laugh through most of this reminds me of how they struggle when it comes to dark humor and satire.

p0sthum4n

I haven't seen this movie since I was like 12-13 and seriously horn doggin it over Reese Whitherspoon. Pretty much all I remember besides that is SMG keeping coke in a little cross necklace. This should be fun.

Caroline

A couple of suggestions: Frantic (1988), Harrison Ford Witness (1985), Harrison Ford, Danny Glover The Jackal (1997), Richard Gere, Bruce Willis Dead Calm (1989), Sam Neil, Nicole Kidman, Billy Zane Patriot Games (1992), Harrison Ford, Anne Archer, Sean Bean Fatal Attraction (1987), Michael Douglas, Glenn Close, Anne Archer

Kate

“I’m trying to think of a thing” 😵 It’s cool, this is the right reaction to this movie, you don’t need to

lisa

We all still would, George

Kate

You could try I Care A Lot, starring Rosamund Pike and Peter Dinklage - great, underrated film, all bad people, no spoilers there, only slightly hard to watch

Vengeance

Yes, please get Election in a poll. Another Reese Witherspoon classic.

Vengeance

I completely forgot that the Counting Crows song “Colorblind” was featured in this movie. While it wasn’t on the album ‘August and Everything After’, that album and the band were huge in my early teenage years.

SbE

I saw this as a teenager when it first was released, and quite enjoyed it for....SMG-related...reasons...not as a comedy. But watching it again now, I just can't stop laughing at the over the top mustache-twirling villainy

Helen Mucus

Yes, this is a teen movie, hence the need to watch it before Not Another Teen Movie. Still, it's pretty good, but nothing compared to the original screen version of this story, Dangerous Liaisons (1988). It's excellent and features a stellar cast and was nominated for multiple Oscars, including Best Picture. It's really worth checking out.

Helen Mucus

Is this a generational thing? I've noticed a lot of young reactors struggle with dark humor and irony.

Mike FromOz

Ahhh, I remember now why I hated this film. I am so glad 'Not Another Teen Movie' took the piss out of it so well. I saw it at the cinema and I hated how much the story revolves around a second chance for an absolute bastard, and how so many people at the time loved the film because of how hot Ryan Phillippe was. It's the same reason why so many people are sad that girls fan out over Draco Malfoy, despite him being an absolute shit. So essentially you can be just the worst, but then you'll have a slight change of heart, and then you vindicate yourself by dying for someone, so over all you were a pretty great guy. Bleah. And the ending also left me cold, as you can guarantee that the only real thing that would have happened is SMG's character would have been sent to rehab someplace in Europe until this all blew over. 'Dangerous Liaisons' is much better, imho. Anyway, rant over. Glad you didn't much enjoy the movie during it either, and glad to see that the tide has turned against this kind of film.

blerbaberpaterb

or you know, humor is subjective. just because someone doesnt find something funny, it doenst mean theyre struggling with it.

Austinbeeman

This is very sexy movie in the era before everyone had unlimited pornography of everything available all the time.

Steve Arnold

Simone and George‘s totally different reactions to „You can put it anywhere.“ …. OMG! 😂🤣😂

FranciscoGios

Of course this movie felt more dramatic when some of us watch it when we were young that’s why it was somewhat popular back then, and yes I wish the studio made Sabastian’s death more believable.

Opti_Frog

I just realised why i've never seen this movie. I have been confusing it with Disturbing Behaviour, a stinking pile of crap that came out the year before.

Happy Hanukkah

You'd be amazed at how many people struggle with the dark humor and satire of Showgirls.

Vengeance

To each their own. ‘Round Here’ and ‘Rain King’ helped me through some things.

Happy Hanukkah

It's probably best if I refrain from opining on this film (hint: 🤮), but I will very sarcastically present some trivia: Now you *have* to react to the 2.5 sequels!!! And to the very recent Amazon series!!!

Happy Hanukkah

Red, I think you're being unkind; "She Talks to Angels" is magnificent! :-P

elle

Oh wow! LOLOL. It’s wild to me that you were told Cruel Intentions was a must-watch prerequisite before seeing Not Another Teen Movie. 🙈 It’s funny but also sort of tragic that no one informed you to watch Dangerous Liaisons (a masterpiece) and Valmont (criminally underrated) *before* watching Cruel Intentions. Seeing you react to this film without any context or knowledge of those films was very interesting or also a bit frustrating. LOL. Also, the 18th-century libertine epistolary novel by Choderlos de Laclos (Les liaisons dangereuses) is a great read.

Odysseus

Yeah this movie is a modern day re-telling of dangerous liaisons(love john Malkovich in this), which was an adaption of the French book like 10 things i hate about you is a re-telling of taming of the shrew, but loved this movie back in the day, had all the hot stars of the time, Ryan Phillipe was the next heartthrob hehe, but he fizzled out.

Craig Motbey

We need the definitive test: Heathers (1989)

DesolationEntertained

"I hope he ends up in prison!" The cruelest thing Sebastian does is suffer consequences, and make you feel bad about it.

Darren Harrison

They met in 1997. As George mentions in the Trivia at the end of this reaction, Ryan was asked if his girlfriend at the time (Reese) would be interested in a role.

Tony E Crumpton

I don't think anyone could watch Heathers and not laugh. Then again...

Tony E Crumpton

I agree, but it feels as if our hero reactors sometimes have trouble identifying when a film is attempting to be funny, especially when it comes to darker characters or issues. Not laughing at something and not seeing that it's trying to be funny feels like two separate things. Certain subjects may make someone cringe, but watching George's look of disgust through most of the film was amusing for me. I don't fault him for his reaction or lose any love I have for these guys for not "getting it", I only found it amusing to watch. And not in a "I'm making fun of these guys" kind of way. If that's how it came across, I apologize. I simply wanted to point out I enjoyed their reaction to the film.

Dustin Duvall

I was 13 when this came out, and yes, it was a significant movie for me lol

Logan Nelson

I always forget, this is set in HIGH SCHOOL... It's why the freshman is portrayed so young... she is 14 maybe 15...

Jacob Colson

Hell, Buffy even had some pornographic moments that makes this movie look tame. I'm not complaining, and Buffy, herself, had her share of HOT moments.

Mike C

I am amused at how much this movie broke Simone’s conception of SMG. 🤣

Austinbeeman

I should have qualified with "movies starring teenage character and targeting teens" and I don't mean to say the it is #1 most sexy. but certainly a top 5% sexy

Ed R

Cruel Intentions is a remake of a movie (and book) called Dangerous Liaisons. Dangerous Liaisons takes place in 18th Century France. Cecile's naiveite doesn't translate well to a modern setting but makes a lot more sense in the 18th century setting. The entire plot actually makes more sense from the perspective of 18th century royalty. Also Dangerous Liaisons is a much much much better movie and is packed full with amazing actors. You guys would actually probably like it a lot and be very surprised by the cast.

Truth

I'm actually quite surprised that neither of you had heard of Ryan Phillipe until this movie. He was in the excellent Lincoln Lawyer with Mathew McConaughey and also in the star studded superb Oscar winning film Crash (2004). Its a film that goes under the radar a lot like Lord Of War even though it won 3 Oscars.

kelvin

Yeah, I was surprised as well. Also, i believe Ryan’s popularity came before N*SYNC & Justin 🤔 The “not Timberlake” annoyed me 🫤

kelvin

I enjoy their reactions, but i have noticed i have a different sense of humor when it comes to more darker, satirical humor. I’m often laughing when they’re cringing/crying (Simone) … 🫠

Shaka Racks

FUN FACT: There is an entire slice of millllenials who walked out of Cruel Intentions a different person.

Simon Pegged Me

I don't think he was being comedic. Like you, I find that hilarious.

Angela D. Mitchell

Seeing both of your horrified reactions at the truly evil main characters was so endearing. I found this a really fun, trashy take on Dangerous Liaisons -- which as other commented was based on the original French Laclos novel Les Liaisons Dangereuses, which was also adapted to a fabulous play starring Alan Rickman in the 80s (Rickman as Valmont! Be still my heart). The parade of guest actors in this is just fabulous -- we have Swoosie Kurtz as the therapist (she was also in Dangerous Liaisons!), Christine Baranski as Cecile's mom, Louise Fletcher as the aunt, Joshua Jackson as Blaine, Eric Mabius (Ugly Betty) as the jock, etc. There's one thing this movie does that I really like, in that Annette is not as much of a victim -- keeping it vague, her outcome is more empowering here than in other versions, and I love that. Also, the guy who picks up Kathryn's crucifix at the end is the headmaster, not her stepfather. I don't think we ever actually see their parents/step-parents. Speaking of which -- I kind of liked that aspect of the missing/absent parents and found it very believable for people who are this rich and living at this level of wealth. We've seen so many examples of celebrity and rich kids who were revealed to live at home for months at a time without parents present. So I bought that aspect, which also explains why Sebastian and Kathryn spend so much time dressing up like people 20 years older and playing their little games. The ages do make it really uncomfortable -- instead of making them all high schoolers, I wish the filmmaker had just gone a year or two up (especially since all the actors are older than that). Especially since Cecile is played as being SO young by Selma Blair (although I do find her hilarious). The one scene in the movie that makes me roll my eyes (well, the biggest) is as a cellist, Ronald the teacher going over and suggestively sitting behind Cecile is absurd. And he's not even teaching her anything -- no fingering, no bowing, she's just sitting there while he's kissing her neck?! (So later it annoys me when he says "I never touched her" to her mom when he was practically making out with her during the cello scene -- I mean, dude.) I get that the filmmaker probably thought it would be "sexy" for him to hit on Cecile that way but he's her teacher so it's just super skeevy and inappropriate. And ridiculous from a teaching standpoint, because I am a music nerd. But it's a lot of fun overall, and I thought SMG was fabulous as the evil Kathryn!

Ned Warbone

A triple bill of movies telling the same story - Cruel Intentions, Valmont and Dangerous Liaisons. All worth a watch. Add Korean movie Untold Scandal and you have four. Only one I haven’t seen is the 1959 ‘original’, Les Liaisons Dangereuses

Ketzalborne

10/10 thumbnail 😂🤤

Matthew Blackwood

Valmont super underrated! Colin Firth easily the hottest version.

Holy Squire

The emotional vacuity of Gellar's character is so sad. Ryan Phillipe is a good actor.
