10 Things I Hate About You

8.3/10 stinky bananas

Meat and potatoes rom-com.

This movie has everything you could want in a 90s rom-com. I enjoyed the hell out of it.

Heath Ledger singing in the bleachers is a fantastic scene. What a tune too. I went straight to the phone to get that added to the playlist.

Julia Stiles flashed a teacher. That's gotta be illegal, right? Someone has to go to jail for that. At the very least it's an immediate expulsion for Julia. Or is this a "that's the 90s baby" type situation and kids were just flashing their teachers left and right. I don't know, my instinct is to throw both Julia and the teacher in jail; that kind of behaviour can't go on without some sort of punishment.

Anyway, Julia's poem at the end is great, but it's immediately ruined by the sound of her fucking flip flops as she walks away. I don't know whose fault that is, but that noise has to be edited out in post production. It's the emotional crescendo of the movie and I got the sound of flip flops click clacking in my ears as the scene ends. Jesus Christ. Someone should've been fired for that.

Go watch it. Heath is the man.
