Consensus: A funny and clever reshaping of Emma, Clueless offers a soft satire that pokes as much fun at teen films as it does at the Beverly Hills glitterati.

Runtime: 1 hr 49 mins

Genre: Comedies

Synopsis: Loosely based on Jane Austen's classic, "Emma," high school teenagers in Beverly Hills (many of whom seem to be named after singers who now do television infomercials) change outfits, have nose... Loosely based on Jane Austen's classic, "Emma," high school teenagers in Beverly Hills (many of whom seem to be named after singers who now do television infomercials) change outfits, have nose jobs and cellular phones, and take care of everybody else's, except their own, social lives.

Owen Gleiberman

There's such a gaping discontinuity between her physical beauty and her vacant, gum-snapping personality that she's like a walking advertisement for everything that's right and wrong with America.

John Leland

The summer's most compelling movie about teenagers.

Brian Lowry

A fresh, disarmingly bright and at times explosively funny comedy well worth a trip to the mall, even if it eventually runs out of gas.

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Though this drifts at times as storytelling, it's mainly lightweight but personable fun.

Rob Gonsalves

Clueless is a happy bubble, and Alicia Silverstone comes into her own as a confident young comedienne.

Silverstone makes Cher's insularity appealingly innocent (even in the midst of crisis, she can't resist checking out the latest fashion lines), and an attempted seduction scene is sweetly hopeless.

David Nusair

...although the movie isn't quite the classic it's been made out to be, it's a mindlessly diverting way to kill 97 minutes.

Smug and self-loathing.

Rob Blackwelder

The movie's simple yet spot-on characters and performances make the laughs timeless, no matter how firmly the film is set in 1995.

The fact that you instantly like these spoiled little rich kids is a testament to Amy Heckerling's skills as a screenwriter.
