    A good movie about hot Living a crazy college Life and being Rich can make you feel Invincible especially when someone crosses you, but ultimately in the end justice will catch up with you.

    This is a movie that revolves around really rich kids who invite or better yet befriend the new girl and she just messes with them all.
    All is not what it seems and man does this new girl do a number on them.

Nobody seems to have cared much about any aspect of it, from its cheesy screenplay to the grayish quality of its lighting to its last-minute, haphazard theatrical release. full review

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle

Great trash, one of those mediocre movies that in its own crass way is more enjoyable than most things that get nominated for Oscars. full review
