Kathryn Merteuil and Sebastian Valmont are seductive, manipulative step-siblings who get what they want when they want it. Kathryn makes a bet with Sebastian: Sebastian must bed Annette, daughter of the headmaster at their school, before the end of summer break. Annette has stated that she would wait until love and marriage to sleep with a man. If Kathryn wins, she gets Sebastian's vintage 1959 Jaguar Roadster. If Sebastian wins, he gets Kathryn, the only girl he knows he'll never have. Also in play is Cecile, a naïve girl whose mother had enlisted Kathryn to help her fit in at her new school. However, Kathryn (with Sebastian's help) plans to ruin Cecile's reputation as revenge on Kat's ex-boyfriend, who left her for Cecile.
Leave your thoughts about Cruel Intentions.
| Washington PostDesson ThomsonA witty, raunchy comedy, which proves that a well-written piece of business – oozing with sex, wit and nasty intrigue – works for any generation. |
| Montreal Film JournalKevin N. LaforestKumble doesn't dumb down the themes of the novel too much, he just gives them a refreshing, flashy feel Dawson's Creek-style. |
| NUVO NewsweeklyEdward Johnson-OttEntertaining. Engaging. A calculated guilty pleasure. |
| Chicago TribuneMichael WilmingtonYou may come to realize that if a bomb suddenly blew up everyone on screen, you wouldn't particularly miss anyone. |
| Filmcritic.comChristopher NullSolid dialogue, luscious characters, great comic relief, and an admittedly classic story give it wings above the standard teen-oriented dreck on the market. |
| Aisle SeatMike McGranaghanI'm surprised by how much fun I had watching it. |
| Empire MagazineCaroline WestbrookNot quite as clever as it thinks it is, but still oozing more dark wit than most teen movies can dream of. |
| Houston ChronicleJeff MillarYou sometimes have to giggle at this movie the way you do when you catch 4-year-olds playing dress-up in front of Mom's closet. |
| Washington PostStephen HunterThe original was about social manipulation as blood sport. Amazing how easily it transports, themes intact, to our blighted decade, and to our children. |
| SPLICEDWireRob BlackwelderI fully expected it to be dumbed down beyond all recognition. I expected Dangerous Liaisons 90210. But I can admit when I'm wrong. |
