If you're looking for a dark and witty comedy, Cruel Intentions is the film for you. The story of a Sebastian (Ryan Phillipe) and Kathryn (Sarah Michelle Gellar) - stepbrother and stepsister who take delight in other people's misery. Sebastian can charm any woman into bed with him and Kathryn knows exactly how to get what she wants, and what she wants is to destroy Cecile (Selma Blair). Sebastian however, grows tired of sleeping with multiple young girls - he wants a challenge. This 'challenge' comes in the form of Annette, (Reese Witherspoon) who has sworn to stay a virgin throughout her teenage years.
They're both manipulative and will stop at nothing to get their way; they work together to bring widespread unhappiness. You'll probably find yourself hating them, but at the same time wishing you could do that...
It's a dark comedy with plenty of shocking moments, but it is very enjoyable and would appeal to most people (rated 15).
If you like this film, you'll probably like Heathers and Pretty Persuasion - both of which I would recommend.
Enjoy!
