  In Jennifer's body Karyn Kusama relays heavily on cheap titillation in the absence of decent story or performances. Her past career as a music video director is obvious as the film plays like a sting of music videos played back to back with nothing but 3 characters connected them. The film is full of puzzling but ultimately pointless scenes that create a sense of suspense right up until the end of the film when none are explained, the sub-plots are dropped and you realise that the film is ultimately a fraud. If you like looking at Megan Fox as much as Karyn Kusama does then I dare say you'll like it but for everyone else you're out of luck I'm afraid. It's also worth mentioning that this film contains the worst dialogue I've heard in a film for quite some time.

  Some good dialogue moments, but overall nothing to shout home about.

  Black horror comedy for teens starring Megan Fox? indeed. Ooook first problem here is the fact this film is rated R, so teens can't see it, at least young teens who lust after celebs like this and adults will find this complete and utter poo soooooo...... Plot is utterly utterly inept and simply revolves around a rock band sacrificing a vacuous Fox to the devil so they can become rich n famous, yes that's what I just typed...believe it. Turns out Fox isn't a virgin (ahem) so when the guys kill her she somehow becomes possessed by a demon (why?) who just happens to need flesh and blood to survive, dumb teen flesh and blood, not adults just teens, cue the 'horror'. It ain't scary and it ain't funny, its just laaaaaame lame lame with Fox being really annoying because the film is clearly made to advertise her as the sexiest female around, she ain't. Acting is poor, effects are minimal and poor, you don't actually see anything gory and its completely pointless. Fox looks no where near as hot as in 'Transformers' because she isn't covered in a thick layer of orange tan makeup, so instead she looks normal, ergo not as hot as we all thought. Can't see anyone liking this unless your a male under the age of 15 and that's only because there is some weak ass 'seduction' scenes and a tiny bit of lesbian kissing.

  When it came out, "Jennifer's Body" looked like it would be a massive hit, bringing Riot Grrl attitude to a long-overdue girls-on-top reversal of many of the tropes of the horror genre. Dreamed up by Diablo Cody (fresh off her Oscar-winning triumph with "Juno") and starring superstar Megan Fox, it seemed like a sure thing. Then it came out and completely bombed. I never knew why. I suspected there was a backlash against girls being on top. Boys go for that only so far. But now having finally seen it, I know what the problem was. It's a bad movie. It should have been much better. I think it was handed off to the wrong director. Karyn Kusama ("Girlfight," "Aeon Flux") just did not know how to manage this material. At every turn, Kusama makes the wrong choices, either emphasizing too much comedy or too much horror. The editor was also not up to the task. Many scenes are drained of energy by being too long. The use of hip rock music goes overboard sometimes and seems like it's trying too hard. The sexiness becomes cheesy at times, especially the soft-core lesbianism, which seems thrown in to titillate boys -- when the whole point was finally to make a movie not built around what boys want! That's at least what I believe Cody had in mind when she conceived the project. Bottom line: "Jennifer's Body" gets the blood pumping only intermittently. It can't sustain its energy. Too bad, because this should have been a counter-cultural Girl Power classic along the lines of "Pulp Fiction." Diablo Cody has the talent to be a Quentin Tarantino for girls. But somehow it's not panning out for her. I think she has to learn to direct her films herself.

  Jennifer's Body has its occasional moments when it's actually kind of clever. But it has a thin story and frankly, it just isn't scary or funny enough. Megan Fox is quite simply the eye candy. But this is probably her best on screen performance. Unfortunatly, her character is very dislikable. Amanda Seyfried is the only shining light in this dull flick (dull in the worst possible sense). But the team behind the camera are those to blame. Their biggest mistake was deliberately trying to make a cult film for groups of vampire girls and emo's. Cult films like that dont try to become popular in a selected audience's eyes. They try a broad target, fail and then if lucky enough they become cult movies. For example, The Nightmare Before Christmas.

  This was not a good movie, but it was much better than I expected. The plot was very boring, I never was having much fun and it seemed just like a way for guys to watch two hot actresses have sex and get naked. The cast was actually not bad, I really enjoyed Seyfrieds performance and I was very surprised by Fox, she actually creeped me out in some scenes. It wasn't very scary, but it was gory and I found myself growing to like Seyfrieds character and you want everything to be all right for her in the end, and this was not a great movie, but it wasn't really bad either.

  Fresh from an Oscar win and a helpful hand in creating American teenage slang for the next three years, Diablo Cody should have delivered a product that entertained with the same malice and yet tenderness as Juno, or at least something as witty and eccentric. Instead we're given something that doesn't fall into any genre except teen oriented. It's supposed to have its moments in both a horrific and comedic premise, and all the time include the sexual appeal and eerie creepiness of Megan Fox. Instead of being scary we're given two extremely unsettling scenes of gore, which are more about cannibalism than demonic possession. The concept could easily have been successful if Fox's bitchy side could have been deeply explored, her relationship with Needy built up enough to conquer experimentation, and the dialogue wasn't purely just about Jennifer. Apparently she's very important, socially superior, and this almost demi-god in the personality department, and yet Jennifer comes off as an unintelligent, slightly cheesy caricature of a high school prom princess. It just doesn't mesh with the horror element at all, which is not in any way truly explained except for a snippet in a book. Then we're suddenly bombarded with information, only to not care with all the anti-climactic buildup from earlier. None of this is funny, at all. Perhaps a line or two are shock funny or bitchy funny, but not actual comedy in any sense of the word. It's shallow, thinly constructed, and unintelligible; the title seems to be the only thing basing this movie in reality.

  It is what it is. But I have to comment on one thing - casting. I don't buy Amanda Seyfried as a high school student for ONE second (and it's almost creepy when she's with her boyfriend, who <i>does</i> look 16), and Megan Fox playing a teenager is… More
  It is what it is. But I have to comment on one thing - casting. I don't buy Amanda Seyfried as a high school student for ONE second (and it's almost creepy when she's with her boyfriend, who <i>does</i> look 16), and Megan Fox playing a teenager is equally laughable. They couldn't have done the same story set in college? Speaking of Fox... She's not sexy, she's just trashy (and not in a good way). As frumpy and plain as they tried to make Seyfried look, she's 100 times hotter than Fox.

• Dead A

  
  Megan Fox's character really suited her. She would have done the same thing (murdering people to look pretty) in real life. I kinda liked this movie. Not mind blowing or anything but quite enjoyable.

  Idiotic "Jennifer's Body" is pointless as a teenage parody, inept as a horror film and ridiculous as a film. Diablo Cody overindulges in her first post-Juno gig and bangs out a bumbling screenplay that works very little. Paired with the disastrous "Aeon Flux", director Karyn Kusama seems to have lost any goodwill she earned with her competent first feature "Girlfight". Megan Fox and Amanda Seyfried can and should brush this off their resume. There's no reason to covet "Jennifer's Body" - it's better left untouched.

  Jennifer's Body doesn't really have all that much to do with...Jennifer's Body, other than it gets possessed by a demon - gee, what an original premiss. OK, I was entertaining a niece of a certain age, and had this film in reserve. She enjoyed the off-beat (and addmittedly sometimes funny)teen speak humor, but you could pretty much tell this was a paint by numbers teen flick all the way. The acting was so so, the camera work nothing to write home about - just typical of the genre in so many ways. I believe the only saving grace was some of the funnier lines - an example: when attacked with an exacto knife, Jennifer replies "do you get all your weapons at Home Depot, how butch". I suppose I'm saying that if you went in looking for a teen comedy wrapped around a cheap horror film - you get what you wanted - does that make for a great film - of course not, but I suppose of the overwhelming number of teen films, this one rises slightly above the crowd.

  The makers of "Jennifer's Body" probably knew that what they set out to make wasn't to be taken too seriously! How else would you explain Oscar winner Diablo Cody penning such a laughably ridiculous teeny-bopper-gothic-satanic-horror-comedy and whatever-other-genre-you-wanna-add picture! Megan Fox stars as Jennifer, the flirtatious teen who is the hottest girl in school and best friends with one of the nerdiest girl with specs, Needy (Amanda Seyfried). Both of them venture out to a rock concert in one of the local bars at Devil's Kettle (the name of the town they live in). That is where the fateful events depicted in this funny film start to take shape! At the outset, it seems like some stupid teenybopper horror flick with lots of stupid dialog. But then it seems to get cleverer in a couple of scenes or more! The dialog gets better too. Further in the film, the 'horror' premise does show a little bit of promise, but ultimately it all comes down and what is offered to us is the same old nonsense that you may have seen in countless B-horror films albeit with some fresh faces and that's about it! That said, this film does have some juicy moments for those looking for some wet-dream-come-true moments and plenty of gore to go along with it! Fox and Seyfriend deliver good performances to make this film at least somewhat watchable in its approximately 107 mins running time. Otherwise it is passable fare! Watch if you have nothing better to do and you just happen to run into a dvd of this! 4/10..

  Cast: Megan Fox, Amanda Seyfried, Johnny Simmons, Adam Brody, J.K. Simmons, Amy Sedaris, Chris Pratt, Allison Janney, Kyle Gallner, Josh Emerson Director: Karyn Kusama Summary: After a supernatural romp with a satanic emo band, hot cheerleader Jennifer (Megan Fox) is transformed into a demon with an insatiable appetite for high school boys. Now, it's up to Jennifer's BFF, Needy (Amanda Seyfried), to protect the guys from the bloodthirsty man-eater. My Thoughts: "Just as I thought, cheesy. The movie in a whole is a bit ridiculous, and the script doesn't help it. But I think that's what the writer's intent was. The acting is solid in this. Although I didn't think Adam Brody was the right fit. He just felt out of place in this film for me. Although I thought Megan Fox and Amanda Seyfried made a great duo and were believable as friends. Megan played crazy well. I thought they were both great in this. It wasn't scary, but it was a bit funny. A few good one-liners here and there, but that's about it. Overall it just ended up being a silly, bloody, wanna be horror film. Not at all good, but not bad either."

  Truly disappointing... I even didn't believe that the story was wrote by Diablo Cody, Oscar winner for her debut scriptwriter in 'Juno'... Not just the story feels weird, but the directing style from Karyn Kusama was really bad... Even they have the name from two famous young actress, Megan Fox and Amanda Seyfried, this movie still sucks like a slasher B-class movie... Overall, this movie is truly disappointing, not only the story which is totally absurd, but the directing style and even the act from the cast couldn't help it all... Still, I can't believe that this movie was written by Diablo Cody...

• Rachel F

  
  Awful. Megan Fox may look nice, but her acting skills could use some work. Amanda Seyfried is this movie's only saving grace.

• Lenny M

  
  Diablo Blody no thanks, juvenile writing. I guess the studio thought the attractive cast and Blody's "Juno" style writing would make this a cult hit, truck that mess. Adam Brody's occult indie band was kind of funny though.

  Jennifer's Body is Strange, Messed Up, Brutal, and Dumb, but I actually liked it. This film has a few funny scenes, but not enough to satisfy anyone, however, it alright, because this movie is actually interesting and had me on the edge of my seat. It may not be a good horror movie, in fact, it's a terrible horror movie, but it seems as though that is what it is going for. This movie is violent and Suspenseful, and I never thought I would say this, but see Jennifer's Body!

  frankly i think "jennifer's body" is an interesting choice for megan fox as her first real acting project. same for amanda seyfried who just steps out of her prop-stage from "mean girls"...it has all the high-school cliches like the beauty queen and her dorky follower as well as other miserable stereotypes..BUT what really distinguishes "jennifer's body" is its self-mocking humour, and it's done in such a blatantly shameless way that you almost admire megan fox for daring to ridicule or uglify herself as well as the drop-dead gorgeous looks which've made her popular and famous. i absolutely agree with roger ebert..watching jennifer's body is definitely much much more fun than twilight, which is about a mousy whining vampire boy who's so afraid to get laid or accept himself as vampire (lame).....megan fox rocks much much more! and you could pardon and almost rejoice with her for those bitchy trampy words coming out of her pouty mouth because she's such a supercunt! and i cannot help but be amazed at (or swooned by) her chiseled features and immaculate shape..(she's far from ugly even with dark eye-cycles or gross-out blood smeared all over her) amanda seyfried's dorky girl is NEEDY(her name) with a boyfried named CHIP. the humour is obvious. from every line, there's some smirky dark-humour, such as "i'm not eating humans, i'm eating boys"..(you could read more in imdb quotes, i suppose). the story developement is surreally deranged enough to keep you on the focus: the beauty queen gets kidnapped in a tavern concert and made sacrifice by the evil rock band leader as tribute to satan. and she survives the series of ferocious knife-stabbings for not being a virgin despite she lies she is (surviving for not being a virgin? lol. high five!)...and the town for those high-schoolers is called DEVIL'S KETTLE.(what a name).but the evil reurgitates back into her so she turns out as the flesh-eating "zombitch" (the word seyfried uses on fox in their last confrontation, what a word)...so she utilizes her sex appeal to buffet on the gullible high-school boys to feast her impeccable beauty. so this zombitch is running rampantly until she targets her best friend's boyfried..to this point, needy has to stop her by the necessary killing. the plots about nobody rock band praying for success from the devil by sacrificing the beauty "virgin" queen is delirious..and the movie begins with needy in asylum (for killing off fox), and needy gains some supranatural power from getting scratched by jennifer then she hurries to massacre the teammates of satanic rock band in the hotel while the background plays courtney love's (the hole) VIOLET! it's so incredible!!! it's like a maniac roller-coaster joy-ride in which you giggle from the moment you're seated!!! (by comparison, twilight is SO stupid and its ideas aren't even cool or original...and there's no humour. how could teenagers are so tasteless? jennifer's body is much much more fun, it deserves bigger box-office than crappy twilight, lol.) by the way, do you know that jennifer's body is also the name for one of the songs in courtney love's (the hole) "live through this" (when nirvana kurt cobain blows his own head with a shot gun)...WHAT A PUN!! furthermore, this movie features a scene where megan fox sneaks into amanda seyfried's bedroom, and there's some steamy tongue-touching french kissing going on between these two hot young women (even seyfried has to hide her beauty with nerdy glasses. besides it's megan fox by her side. no woman could be foxier than fox) that kiss's definitely worth the ticket! and it would make your day for sure! lol. (ps) needy is the one who betrays jennifer. jennifer at least didn't eat needy when she was hungry. in the bedroom scene, she rejects jennifer in jen's weakest moment. then friendship disintegrates. to me, jennifer is the vulnerable one who runs thru misfortunes, desperately survives it and tries hard to act tough and cope with this ghastly transformation. her best friend just rejects her when she tries to be honest. people will just tag jennifer as evil because she acts bitchy and so unapologetically confident about her beauty, and they all forget jennifer is the victim of demon-sacrifice, shouldn't she deserve some sympathy at least?
