fantastic story, great performances, cool soundtrack. nuff said really but this update of 'dangerous liasons' is one cool film that has slick direction and one sexy babe as its leading lady. the sexy babe being sarah michelle gellar who controls all the film and all the mens atention. she plays a cruel, manipulative spoilt girl who decides to ruin one girls life by turning her into a tramp and gets her stepbrother to ruin to ruin another girls beliefs she wins on both accounts but gets her commeupance at the end much to my dismay. the biggest attraction of this film is that you get too see super, sexy rich kids get exactly whats coming to them. the film probably would'nt cut it outside the ring of fans for sarah michelle gellar and ryan phillipe but it certainly did for me.
