I Love You, Beth Cooper (2009)

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

I saw this as one of those "it's 11pm I'm not ready for bed what's this movie I've never seen popping up on the schedule" movies. It starts out like countless tween flix -- the crazy night between high school graduation and the the next sunrise that concludes the iconic teen zany hero's journey. It has parts of so many movies past -- RISKY BUSINESS, MY TUTOR, PORKY'S, ORANGE COUNTY, SAY ANYTHING, SOME KIND OF WONDERFUL, PRETTY IN PINK, SIXTEEN CANDLES, GRADUATION NIGHT, THE TO DO LIST, et al. The geeky guy, his colorful buddy sidekick, the unattainable sex/love object with a vulnerable heart of gold, the jealous brute BF, the fish out of water ritzy party, the encounter with wildlife, the encounter with booze, the cool parents, losing articles of clothing, you get the picture. What makes this one different? Not much, except that it's updated for 2009, and starring the then-uber-marketable girl who played the cheerleader in HEROES, a ridiculously muddled but popular tv series of its day.What saves this one from sliding further towards sucknosity is not-stupid acting, not-stupid writing and dialogue, and not stupidly impossible situations. Restraint and a modicum of adultness is what saves this one from being mock-worthy. It's pleasant, has some funny moments, tries not to insult your intelligence, and mostly gets away with it.

I had watched this movie around four to five years ago from now i.e. 12/18/2015 and that time I was not familiar with IMDb.com , and used to have very limited access and understanding of English Movie and English language because 4 to 5 years ago my English was not so good as it is now. Despite of above 2 factors I had really enjoyed this movie but a few days ago when I came across the rating of " I Love You Beth Cooper" movie I was surprised because this movie is far better than the rating it got on the IMDb. So I decided to watch it again and I did watch it again on 12/18/2015 @ 2 am @ Friday and I must say that to me this movie is as good as it used to be 4 to 5 years ago. Whenever I watch a movie , I do not think whether this is realistic or not , the thing that matters to me most is that whether it entertains me or not and in case of " I Love You Beth Cooper" It really entertained me . This movie really have some light funny and feely moments. This is my First review on IMDb.com for a movie and I wrote it because this movie is better than the ratings and reviews suggest. For me it is 10 ********** Stars. "I Love You, Beth Cooper "

You guys are dropping hate on it for being bad unfunny or uncreative reused jokes but thats the point its not meant to be serious or have good timing or anything its a teen high school p*ss take movie meant to be cringy bad if they were going to make a serious teen love movie it would look high school musical or twilight and then you would drop the reviews because its to serious as for reused jokes most teen love comedy's have copied joke thats what makes them light harted and funny Please give it a fair chance Bare that in mid before watching it don't take it seriously its worth a watch if your in the mood for bad jokes a teen comedy

"I Love You, Beth Cooper" opened with an extremely awkward scene, Denis (Paul Rust) confessing his love for Beth Cooper (Hayden Panettiere) during his valedictorian speech at his High School graduation. It was so awkward. I was so uncomfortable and embarrassed for him; it made me cringe. I didn't want to look but I just couldn't look away. The awkwardness was lightened with a few very funny remarks made during the speech. Luckily this was the only awkward humor. I don't think I would be able to handle a whole lot of that.My favorite character was Rich Munsch played by newcomer Jack Carpenter. He was very funny with his random, homosexual comments then insisting he is not gay. Naturally I loved his movie references throughout the film."I Love You, Beth Cooper" was very stupid but so very amusing. There were countless moments when I laughed out loud. There were hilarious moments such as a towel battle scene, a fight scene with Carpenter jumping out a window as means of escape, and a scene involving a terrifying raccoon.Though it was stupid and funny there were a lot of serious moments. The two main characters played by Rust and Panettiere did a lot of talking with their eyes. They understood personal and profound moments the other was going through. Oddly enough they had a great connection.Though the acting wasn't fantastic, it wasn't a downfall for the film.I am absolutely shocked to say this but I thoroughly enjoyed watching "I Love You, Beth Cooper". I would recommend it for a good laugh.
