Clueless (1995)

A Masterpiece!

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

There was a time in my teenage when i used to love this genre; however, that has completely changed now. I had a lot of fun watching this movie, Alicia Silverstone acting was adorable. The story and plot was beautiful and unique in some way. This genre is most of the very predictable where an unpopular girl likes a popular guy or vice versa, but this story was much different then what i expected.

I'm going to admit right off the bat (I say that a lot, don't I?) that I'm not into teen movies much. I guess I'm just in the wrong demographic. I never saw any of them when I was a teen! That being said, this movie was perfectly serviceable to me. I've just seen so many awful comedies, there's no comparison on what's better. I thought this had something to do with the game "Clue".Apparently, that's another movie. I heard the title being dropped around 22 minutes, when the new girl came in. I thought that she was going to be the focus of the movie. I am glad they looked at so many different aspects of the life of a teenage girl. Yeah, being a boy, I couldn't associate with it that much. Still, it's hard for me to dislike anything with Wallace Shawn in it. ***

Is this movie good or what!? Alicia Silverstone is sooo cute, like hellloo, and considerably hot, so's Stacey Dash, majorly, and Elisa Donavon's brutally hot too. These girls are all sooo pretty, duuh, I totally worship them, specifically Alicia. She's one smart girl. Wow, check out young foxy Brittany! She is the ultimate hot cutie babe, yeeah. She's not as cute as the other girls yet, how old is she in this?...ah, they're giving Brittany a makeover! It sounds mental but I've never seen Clueless all the way through until now, it's totally embarrassing I know. They gave Britt her makeover! She's positively a billion times hotter than the other girls, no joke. Brittany Murphy is one of the most super duper beautiful people who's ever died young. I love her, it's insane, I totally miss her. Clueless' so dope! I was clueless how good it is, well not entirely I mean I knew I'd love it because I love smart and good spirited sweet heartfelt movies like this and assuredly chick flicks with major superhotties everywhere, howeverr Clueless totally opened the door, seriously laid the groundwork, and definitely paved the way for Legally Blonde's success over half a decade later, uhh, as if! I'm such a brown-noser. Clueless is a popular cultural splash with great style and way super fashionable! It's so faabulous and so fun and kinda deep! Alicia Silverstone is an underappreciated superstar actress. She's soooo sweet, as if! Whateverrr, I love Clueless! I'm making a W with my thumbs and index fingers for whaateverrr, and here's an L for all you looosers out there who don't love Clueless now put it on your forehead, ha just kidding I love you guys, just like this movie, and Brittany, and Alicia, and Stacey.

Like so many others we have...The Taming of the Shrew...updated...this time for the '90s...and this time with a little bit of a twist.But that is not at all the appeal of the movie.The appeal is sort of the decade. or rather it is the ever-present running commentary about the culture of the time filtered through the eyes of a surfacely shallow teen that has more depth than even she gives herself credit for.What saves the movie is the narration and how wonderfully clever and insightful it is that done in a way that makes the viewer forget that, in essence, all the plot is, is yet another Teen orientated adaption of the bard's The Taming of the Shrew set once more in a new decade in a high school near you...or rather in California.In any case, the charm that makes this film so great comes from a commentary that is once a focused lens on the teenage culture of the decade and comedic enough to not at all take itself too seriously.All in all a great film for its time and place.
