Storyline Kate (Brittany Snow) is the new girl in school. She catches John Tucker (Jesse Metcalfe) dating three different girls at once: Carrie - the smart girl, Heather - the cheerleader, and Beth - the activist slut; none of them are aware that they are not the only girl in John's heart. Kate, having been raised by a single mother, has seen the pain caused by playboys like John Tucker, and she won't stand idly by. Together with the three jilted ex-girlfriends, they hatch a plan to teach John a lesson. Things rarely go as planned, especially when Kate starts to think that she might be falling for John herself.

Trivia:
Director Betty Thomas referred to all the actors by their characters' names, since, she claims, she couldn't remember their real names, and she wanted to think of them as their character. When she forgot their characters' names, she'd simply refer to them as "person".

I don't think she's your type... John Tucker:
Girl is my type!

Rating: 7/10
OK, so I went to see this with my mom who is over 55, my niece who is
15 and I am 26.....so you have assorted ages and opinions and point of
views...Well we all thought is was going to be cute and funny but we
didn't think we would laugh the whole time and think that it would
actually have a good story to it. I thought that my mother and I liked
it more than my niece did, I'm not sure if that was because we could
relate to the moral of the story but I know she laughed a lot louder
than we did at times. But we all laughed. The crowd was mostly teens.
Compared to other movies out this summer I think it is worth paying the
day or night rate. I would actually go see it again.
