Just watched this is for the first time today. Wasn't very interested going into it, basically just wanted to see how Heath Ledger was in this film.

It was only his third film of his career and pretty much introduced Heath to a lot of people at that time.

It's a unconventional teen/romance/comedy story. Had it's weird out of nowhere moments. Definitely unpredictable at times.

The acting overall by everyone was very good.

Just watching his performance in this film, I wouldn't have thought Heath Ledger would have played the roles he did later like Ennis Del Mar and The Joker.

Shows how much a chameleon he was. Rest in peace.

 
It’s my favorite movie. Nobody is a bigger fan of this film than me.


The bottom pictures are from a screening in LA with the cast. Also been to a bunch with the director , writers ect

I think I was in HS at the time. I liked the chick in it. No idea who she is now.
 
Maybe a 5 or 6 . Watched it once and never rewatched it.
 
It's a more serious teen movie. Not bad, not great.

Probably a 7 at most
 
As far as those ‘90s teen movies go, 10 Things is pretty easily one of the best, in my opinion. Clever reworking of Shakespeare, great cast- Krumholtz steals every scene he’s in, Stiles and JGL are great. Larissa Oleynik and Gabrielle Union are well cast. Keegan embodies the cocky heel well, Larry Miller is very funny as the dad, etc. Ledger is awesome. Very charismatic. Definition of a star making role.

There are some lulls and not every comedic moment lands. But, like the best of that particular genre, it’s both funny, earnest and moves briskly.
 
Saw it in the theater when it came out, it was alright then.

Only watched once or twice more over the years.

I'll give it a 6.5/7.
 
We studied this film in Year 11 English so I ended up watching it many times cos of that, it's a good film. @lsa is also a huge fan, mostly because of Heath Ledger.
Were you studying Shakespeares taming of the shrew? This is a modern take on that and I think it would have been taken as an understudy for that Shakespeare story.
