Critic Reviews for Jawbreaker
All Critics (58) | Top Critics (18) | Fresh (4) | Rotten (54)
Lame shock scenes, crucial plot points inserted without setups, and an unsuccessful attempt to exploit the camp value of some actors cast in minor parts are the least of the problems in this black comedy.
The producers of this film, which depicts teen-age girls as an assemblage of negative stereotypes, are female. Can females practice misogyny?
Only the soundtrack (the Donnas, Imperial Teen) and the irrepressible McGowan make it fractionally more bearable.
It's a tired lousy movie, a terrible twosome that deserves your heartfelt indifference.
Not quite a satire, not quite an homage, Jawbreaker falls into a third category: audaciously unoriginal.
A slick production of a lame script!
Audience Reviews for Jawbreaker
This movie is actually really good. It's one of the last great teen comedies of the 90s, and it's a dark comedy similar to Heathers. I found it very funny, and I recommend it.
Super Reviewer
Just another o-kay movie.

The sweetest candies are sour as death inside. Jawbreaker was a cute chick flick but girls in the movie tiny bit LOLs. The expression on their face when they find out their best friend is dead just because of the stupidity, it was a LOL moment for me-
