Yes, because of Fox.

I'm okay with being shallow. I sleep better.

I agree, but to each their own I guess. I'm really surprised Roger Ebert gave it a solid rating.

Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen is 19% on RT and that didn't stop it from raking in the mega bucks.

Yep. Just about all the teenage boys will go see this like teenage girls did with Twilight.

Honestly, this movie looks incredibly crappy. The idea is interesting, but with Megan Fox in the leading role, no ticket for me.

I doubt I'll see it unlike those other guys. It looks like a B-movie with a stupid plot and horrible acting courtesy of Megan Fox.

All the teenage boys are in for a shock because this film isn't as advertised.

It's a pretty layered metaphor with an interesting look at two friends and what happens to their friendship. The glue is the performances of Amanda Seyfried and yes, Megan Fox.

Yes, she can act and in fact, may have opened a window into who she really is. Both performances are multilayered, with Seyfried having more to work with because she's the lead but Fox delivers when she needs to, especially in three specific parts that tell us what's really underneath Jennifer's Body.

Admittedly, it does have a bizarre pace to it but because of the humor, the script, and the two lead performances, it does work as an original work in this genre.

But, I'm sure most won't give it a chance because its not scary enough. It's going for something so much more than what's being advertised.

There are 3 good movies this weekend and the temp is going to be near 100 degrees F here in the Bay Area. I'd say the chances of me seeing Jennifer's Body is a big YES!!!

Foxxy looked incredible.

Just wish it was longer and Cody showed more restraint with the dialogue.

I like this thread's title which brings me to this question:

What about her body?.

Seriously though, this will probably be a day one rent for me. If I like it then I will buy it.

umm, seriously? No it isn't. You are looking for much more than is really there. I'm sorry, this movie is EXACTLY what it tries to be.
