10 Things I Love about this movie

1.) It's really funny, with awesome jokes
2.) Great leads in the cast
3.) A great dynamic love story between Kat and Patrick (bonus points for using Bianca and Cameron as misdirection on whose love story this was)
4.) Best guidance counselor ever (for a teen comedy at least)
5.) Most epic "I'm sorry, please forgive me" effort ever made (with Patrick singing in the stadium)
6.) Best "I forgive you" scene after that (with Kat getting him out of detention)
7.) Funniest, most overprotective dad ever
8.) Best villain takedown for a teen film ever (with Bianca beating up Joey during prom)
9) Beautiful location (Seattle was so much prettier in the late 90s, and they seriously must have filmed this in summertime, it almost never is that sunny, even today)
10.) Best Shakespeare referencing ever for a teen movie

I agree! This is one of my absolute favorite movies. I took my beloved daughter to see it so it will always be special to me 💗

I hope you have it in your DVD library too :D My family certainly does. Even mom and my sister-in-law love it!

I sure do! 🥰 This, Can't Hardly Wait and Clueless. And a few others I can't remember right now, lol.

While I'm very aware that there is a lot of garbage out there, it's nice to read one of your posts where you actually LIKE and compliment the movie. I will have to keep an eye out for this one.

There are many movies that I like, that's why I'm so unhappy that films have gotten so bad since 2016. It seems like the only time I can find anything good are a few gems from post-2016 here and there, and any films made before that year.
