Movie Reviews of Jennifer's Body

Movie Review: A great dark comedy, with tons of gore and comical one-liners!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

SPOILER ALERT!!! SPOILER ALERT!!!

Initially when I walked past this in the video store; I thought, it's probably going to be a stupid movie about zombies. But, I finally decided to get it and see what it was like, because I like Megan Fox from the Transformers movies. And as it turned out, this dark comedy had tons of blood, guts and gore; like the part when Jennifer (Megan Fox) was bent over the Colin kid, drinking blood from his torn open body, that was just disgusting or her puking up that rank grey crap all over Needy's kitchen floor. Yuck! But, I have to say, I liked this movie. It was more comical than horrorifying.

Check out all the comical one-liners and different hilarious quotes:

* "Hey Monostat, What's up, Vagisil".
* (Chip stabs Jennifer in the stomach and she grabs it, pulling it out and then looks down) "Ow, ow, ooow... you got a tampon. No. Thought, I'd ask, you look like your plugging"
* "Hell is a teenage girl".
* "Do you buy all your murder weapons at Home Depot? God your butch."
* "It's freak-tarted."
* "I'm going to eat your soul and s%*t it out Lesnicky!"
* "My tit. No your heart."
* "And now, I'm eating your boyfriend. See? At least I'm consistent."
* "I thought you only murdered boys? I go both ways!"

As for everyone referring this movie to Juno, I've never seen that movie, so I don't know what any of you are talking about. And the writer/producer, did an excellent job with the concept of the movie. I like the idea that the teenage hottie town b*tch was basically sacrificed because the stupid band, Low Shoulder thought she was a virgin. A hot girl like that, never stays a virgin for long. And, what I thought was weird is that the band didn't have a clue she ended up alive, after the lead singer basically savagely murdered her and the ritual didn't go as planned because of demonic transference, which means- because she wasn't a virgin, the soul wasn't pure and instead of dying, the soul was lost and an impure soul went in return, to allow the sacrifice to successfully work for the band . I mean, they ended up getting what they wanted, wealth and fame, but their ignorance basically ruined a friendship, and that's sad. I mean, Jennifer feeds off Needy's bf and it kills him and Needy goes crazy because of it and intends on killing her, when in fact it's not really Jennifer doing it, it's the demon wanting blood. But, I like the idea at the end, when Needy realizes the necklace is what bound Jennifer and Needy and rips it off of her, and they both fall from the air and Needy stabs Jennifer in the heart. I also like the ending, when Needy gets part of the demons powers, because of Jennifer biting Needy. I don't think there will be a second movie to it; cause, just because he has powers doesn't mean she's a demon like her bff. And I like the ending, where Needy finds the knife that lead singer stabbed Jen with and sets forth on the goal to off the man and the band, basically- do unto others as they would do unto you. She did everyone a favor by killing them, so that their greediness wouldn't kill another living soul. They got what they deserved.

All and all... I'd give this two thumbs up and 5 raving stars. As stupid as I thought this would be, I liked it very much and want to buy it- so that I can veg out Saturday nights and watch it, laughing my butt off. I like a good comedy, but this isn't just an ordinary comedy, it's a dark teen comedy! Plus, you get to see two beautiful girls, making out and Amanda Seyfried get revenge!!!

Summary of Jennifer's Body

Sexy temptress Megan Fox is hotter than hell as Jennifer, a gorgeous, seductive cheerleader who takes evil to a whole new level after she?s possessed by a sinister demon. Steamy action and gore galore ensue as the male student body succumbs to Jennifer's insatiable appetite for human flesh. Now it?s up to her best friend (Amanda Seyfried) to stop Jennifer's reign of terror before it's too late!

There's always a good girl and a bad girl in a movie like Jennifer's Body--but in this case the good girl is crazy and the bad girl is way, way evil. At least somebody thinks good girl Needy (Amanda Seyfried, from Mamma Mia!) is crazy: when the movie begins she's narrating from a psychiatric hospital, and the rest of the film is a flashback that explains her incarceration. It's all connected to longtime friend Jennifer (Megan Fox), a saucy high-school temptress, who mysteriously survives a horrific night out and transforms into a supernaturally powerful force with a taste for human blood. There's certainly some genre kick to this stuff, almost none of which is played straight--how could it be, with Oscar-winning screenwriter Diablo Cody penning the script? Yes, all those crackly, slang-peppered one-liners you loved (or hated) in Cody's Juno are back, with a vengeance. There's actually something more honest about the nastiness of the dialogue in Jennifer's Body, which at least doesn't try to corkscrew back into the heartwarming ambitions of Juno. Among the targets of Cody's satire are Needy's nice-guy beau (Johnny Simmons), a one-armed toupeed teacher (J.K. Simmons), and a satanic rock singer (Adam Brody). The raging hormones and bodily changes of teendom have always lent themselves to metaphorical usefulness in horror movies, but Cody doesn't ring many new changes on the device, beyond the brutal hilarity of her dialogue. That leaves us with showroom-ready Megan Fox, whose buffed sheen is just right for her soulless character. --Robert Horton
