  Ten Things I Hate About You - Review - Stumped? - Stumped At the Video Store is a Magazine About Movies, DVD releases, ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
With the recent rash of films revolving around, starring and targeted at teenagers, the consensus of those over the age of 25 has been to avoid them; their plots have been weak and the acting performance worthy of late night television.
Noticeably lacking WB stars, 10 Things is the rare teen film more interested in telling a story (a reshaping of William Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew) and developing relationships between characters than of satisfying the desires of the teen demographic group.
Totally devoid of teenage self-pity and angst, 10 Things was one of the most enjoyable teen films of the '90's.

Based on Shakespeare's "Taming of the Shrew," "10 Things I Hate About You" offers a refreshing revival of the "good" teen films, as compared to the "typical" teen films.
It's about a teenaged girl whose father will not allow her to date.
Finally he comes up with a clever idea - if she can convince her older sister (who is a strict, boring "b***") to date someone, the younger sibling can as well.

 "10 Things I Hate About You" / a review from Christian Spotlight on the Movies
Ten Things I Hate About You is rated PG-13 for crude sex related humor and dialogue and alcohol and drug related scenes.
Most high schoolers talk about sex, drugs, and alchohol everyday, so in order to portray a realistic high school, the "crude" and "disgusting" comments were not unnecessary.

 'Ten Things I Hate About You': It's Like, You Know, Sonnets and Stuff
One of the many delightful things about "Clueless," the movie that started it all, was a glove-smooth fit of Jane Austen's "Emma" on a teen-age comedy of manners.
Still, "10 Things I Hate About You" has its charms, most notably Julia Stiles' brash, cheeky portrayal of Katarina Stratford (known as Kat), the proud, nonconforming "shrew" who is "tamed" by Heath Ledger's Patrick Verona.
A spirited feminist who doesn't date and sneers at the conformism and idiocy of teen-age social life, she is a breath of fresh air in the stifling materialistic atmosphere of today's Hollywood teen-age movies.

Didion is quietly devastating, too, about the callousness of the leftish "base", for whom the case was "about" abortion, and (even more) about booing at Christians and demonising "fundamentalists".
I confess that I assumed, when I first saw she was writing about the Schiavo case for the NY Review, that it would be one more bitter screed against "fundamentalists".

 The Jujube Spotlight - 10 Things I Hate About You
To study the linguistic and cultural translation of Shakespeare's "The Taming of the Shrew" into our own latter-day idiom, I watched "10 Things I Hate About You," a version of the classic romantic comedy set in a modern high school and revolving around the lives of today's youth.
"10 Things I Hate About You" is strictly a teen flick, which necessarily means that it has a lively soundtrack and a denouement at the prom, as well as some truly asinine scenes (a dumb roster of high school stereotypes and a few irrelevant attempts at eccentric humor).
Also, it's a wee bit ironic, considering that the heroine of "10 Things I Hate About You" is all about bucking societal expectations, that just about every character is a complete cliché.

 SPLICEDwire: "10 Things I Hate About You" review
"10 Things I Hate About You" -- a "Clueless"-spawn remake of "The Taming of the Shrew" -- while an above average entry in the recent pool of teen-targeted pics, is sorely lacking in this arena.
Although "10 Things" frequently throws comedic curve balls of unexpected creativity and wonderful wit (one small example is how ruthlessly tart Padua High's teachers are), most of the picture is flat, spiritless and hopelessly staged.
I mean, I wasn't expecting iambic pentameter here, but while "10 Things" starts promisingly enough with a scattered lines of snappy dialogue (going out with Kat is referred to as "extreme dating"), it quickly degrades to the point that the allegedly edgy lead characters end up rather generic.

A modern (but loose) interpretation of William Shakespeare's classic play, "The Taming of the Shrew", 10 Things I Hate About You is refreshingly smart, funny, and entertaining, a rare bright spot in a genre normally plagued by pointlessness and idiocy.
I know a lot of people are sick to death of the "too intellectual for their own damn good" type of character in the teenage/young adult set, but 10 Things I Hate About You really hits this one right on the head.

 Ten Things I Hate About You . Memphis Flyer . 04-19-99
Television sitcom director Gil Junger’s 10 Things I Hate About You is a very loosely adapted version of Shakespeare’s comedy The Taming of the Shrew, set among high-schoolers in a beautiful, upper-middle-class Seattle neighborhood.
10 Things is not without an occasional good laugh, but it never transcends the director’s confined, sitcom-segmented understanding of comic development and his frequent pandering to a very low estimation of what sophomoric really means.
Neither her father nor Kate bargain on her crossing paths with a modern-day Petruchio (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) who is equally independent and something of a wild man. The two proud, fierce spirits clash, and thereby hangs the tale.

10 Things I Hate About You, the newest movie by the acclaimed director/nun Jimplet Kat of Duneville, AK, would be better titled A Comedic Trip Through the World of Vertically-Challenged Cows.
The plot cannot be revealed as it is too complicated for drunken misquitos, small green aliens with afros, and me. The best part of the movie is by far the incident in which the movie ends and the credits start.
Basically, this movie is not worth seeing unless you can find a way to get in for less than the normal price of $18.47 and a computer monitor, or if you can sneak a goat into the theater with you.

 Amazon.com: DVD: 10 Things I Hate About You (1999)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
"10 Things I Hate About You" is obviously inspired by Shakespeare's "The Taming of the Shrew," but it would be a mistake to think that the story is simply translated entact to the Sea-Tac area of Washington State.
Actually, what we have here are the basics translated to the high school level (with some of the names): Bianca (Larisa Oleynik) cannot date until her older sister Kat does so (Julia Stiles), and new kid in town Cameron James (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) hires moody Pat Verona (Heath Ledger) to pitch woo to Kat.
However, from then on "10 Things I Hate About You" reminds you more of a standard Hollywood teen flick where two people who hate each other fall in love rather than Shakespeare--not that there is anything wrote with that.

I've read essays about this subject from time to time over the years, and every one of them seems to get around to dismissing Shakespeare as the author purely based on his more "common" background versus the "nobility" of others, just as Holland claims.
