Excerpt and Information about the movie:
Meet the Stratford sisters: pretty and popular Bianca (LARISA OLEYNIK), who has never had a date; and Kat (JULIA STILES), her older sibling, an ill-tempered harridan whose acerbic wit is matched only by her steadfast determination to alienate any guy who might be remotely interested in her.
Unfortunately, strict rules in the Stratford household forbid Bianca from having a boyfriend until her odious sister has one of her own -- a situation that seems highly improbable considering Kat is a social disaster.
Bianca's desperation for romance turns into a convoluted scheme to match Kat with her male equivalent -- a guy whose reputation is so infamous, Kat might rise to the challenge and find him worthy of her concealed charms. Mating mayhem ensues when Patrick Verona (HEATH LEDGER) (a sullen young man with a mysterious past -- is bribed by Bianca's wannabe boyfriend (ANDREW KEEGAN) to woo and win Kat, in order to clear the way for Bianca to begin dating.

My Review:
I Love this movie. I have probably watched it at least 5 times and I can never get enough of it. I think it’s funny and very interesting. Some movies have those dull moments but this movie is full of excitement. The actors are wonderful together. This is a must see!

An excellent choiceReview created: 10/27/06

10 Thngs I Hate About You is based off of the Shakespeare play, "The Taming of the Shrew" Throughout the movie, Shakepeare "innuendos" are used and you'll probably pick up on this.
Julia Stiles and Heath Ledger star in this movie along with others.
Bianca Stratford wants to date the "coolest" guy at school who has just started to pay attention to her. Bianca's father is really overprotective so he agrees that Bianca can date when her bitch sister, Kat, dates.
The plot twists and turns, but it's hard to get lost. This movie is funny and touching and has some really good music. I'm sure you'll love it!

I love this movie. It has a classic teenage plot, a hot HOT cast, love my heath ledger, and it has a well written funny script. It's full of laughs, good music, and did I mention Heath Ledger? This is one of those movies that you can never watch too many times.

Excellent! Surprisingly watchable for a "teen" comedy.Review created: 10/06/08

As the title suggests, this film is ostensibly just for teens. However, this is not really true. I was nearly twenty four when I first saw it, and in the intervening years (I'm now 32), it has not lost a single bit of its impact. If anything, it gets better every time I watch it. It still maintains the typical "teen movie" conventions, but with a smarter and more sophisticated approach that refuses to "dumb" itself down. In this way, it gives credit to the intelligence of the average teen, instead of insulting and typifying them.
This delightful and charming piece of pop culture is actually based on Shakespeare's "The Taming of the Shrew", and it shows. Self-referential almost to a fault (but never annoyingly so), it maintains the basic plot of the play, but with a twist. Instead of not getting married, younger Bianca is unable to date until her older sister (Kat, the "shrew" of the piece) does. The problem is, Kat refuses and is generally b**chy and vile-on the surface, at least-to the point that no boy will have her anyway (they're too scared). Enter the new kid at school who becomes so smitten with Bianca that he will stop at nothing to have her. This, of course, involves finding someone fearless enough to want to date Kat. Through a convoluted bribe scheme (that I won't get into here), he finds the perfect match in another new guy that everyone is equally afraid of, and the fun begins.
From this point on, much of the film is comprised of a "tug of war" between two equally stubborn forces of nature. She can't stand him, and he won't give up. If the end result seems obvious (and it pretty much is), don't let that stop you from giving it a try. Cleverness abounds, and the script and dialog are priceless. To this day, I find myself laughing out loud during a number of scenes, despite the fact that I've seen them a dozen times or more. Oh, and be sure not to miss the closing credits, which are given the "outtakes and bloopers" treatment. The soundtrack also remains interesting and fun to listen to and fits the overall mood perfectly (It's worth mentioning here that I am a fan of all genres of music. You may not feel the same way.).
Overall, I'd say this is a really fun and smart comedy that both teens and adults (of my generation, at least) will find worth their while.

10 Things I Hate about YouReview created: 08/04/06

Heath Ledger in one of his earlier roles and Julia Stiles are a perfect mis-match in this 'tween movie. It has a very interesting cast to help the story: Joseph Gordon-Levitt (from Third Rock from the Sun), David Krumholtz (from NUMB3RS), Andrew Keegan (from 7th HEaven). Based on Shakespeare's, "The Taming of the Shrew" it is an easier version to understand. And if you love Heath Ledger, he actually sings in this movie. The songs are awesome too, the band Letters to Cleo did a cameo.

Julia Stiles & Heath LedgerReview created: 07/10/09
by:
) I think this is the movie that set Heath and Julia's careers to life! Yeah, this may be a teenie bopper movie, but I am approaching 30 and I still LOVE this movie. I have a 9 year old daughter who loves to watch this movie. My standards for movies and shows are sometimes different from other parents'. This involves drunk teenagers, kissing, sexual inuindo. BUT, no nasty shots. This may not be recommended for children under 13.

I really liked this movie and I had it on VHS and was attempting to switch all my old movies to dvds because i rarely ever use a tape player anymore. This was one of those late 90's chick flicks that most girls just need to own so i added it to my collection.

10 Things I Hate About You DVDThe movie was really cute. There were several actors in it that have been much more prominent today. Heath and Julie were excellent in their roles. It's the kind of the movie that you would want to watch more than once as it was really funny in some parts and it was a refreshing story.
