Review
I wanted to see this movie when it first came out but never did. I didnt get a copy until a week ago and finally watched it with my girlfriend. I have to admit Ive seen it five times in the past week. A lot of teen movies have very basic or clichéd plots but not this one. Its based on "The Taming of the Shrew" and it has a lot of interesting twists. The music is awesome every song actually fits the moment and the two love stories are actually interesting to watch. Even all the actors did a really great job. The only bad thing is the occasional dirty jokes. If you dont care for teen movies dont worry you are just like me this movie is still worth watching. Im giving it a 10 to bring those ratings up!
