The Bottom Line
Brittany Snow heads up a good-looking cast in the teen comedy movie, John Tucker Must Die. Although pretty much every member of the main cast looks a little old to be in high school, they really give the film their all - elevating the material and delivering a decent albeit forgettable movie aimed at teenage girls.
Pros
- Cute cast makes up for a lot of the script's shortcomings

Guide Review - John Tucker Must Die DVD Review
We've all known a guy like John Tucker (played by Desperate Housewives' hunky yard boy Jesse Metcalfe). He's the football stud who can get any girl on campus. He's also the guy responsible for breaking the hearts of the numerous girls he dates when he quickly dumps them and moves on, or dangles them on a string by telling them they're are his one and only.When a gaggle of teen hotties get together and figure out John's been playing them, they - along with new-girl-in-town Kate (Snow) - come up with a plan to get even. Fighting fire with fire, they devise an elaborate plan to break John's heart, just like he's broken theirs. But the plan backfires when Kate learns there's more to John than his studly exterior.
