Okay, now, take whatever you’re imagining, and triple it. That’s how much havoc a band of resourceful high school girls end up wreaking on the triple-timing campus stud in the comedy John Tucker Must Die.The destruction begins when three gorgeous, popular girls from competing high school cliques discover that they’ve each been dating the same guy: the school’s smooth and hunky basketball team captain, John Tucker (JESSE METCALFE).

Lame and unconvincing teen comedy about high school girls taking revenge against an ex-boyfriend.--Kirk Honeycutt (Hollywod Reporter)
The jokes are obvious and unfunny, the storyline goes nowhere that's interesting or unexpected, and the only chemistry happens in a science lab. The movie may be able to bamboozle a few teen female fans into multiplexes, but it's hard to imagine any of them - even those who swoon at the sight of Jesse Metcalf - labeling this as better than forgettable. And for anyone outside that demographic unfortunate enough to endure John Tucker Must Die, the memory will be too painful to fade quickly.  --James Berardinelli (ReelViews)
