A great example of taking two genres and meshing them near perfect. You'll laugh and you'll wince in horror (especially if you are male). Jess Weixler does great going from virginal, abstinence girl to sly, man-hunter. Overall enjoyable. |

Bones, they're what's for dinner! |

Hey there drudgees! Have you been a likeable lad or did you put your something somewhere and now something's no more? Ouch! Call the doctor lover-lovikins!
Don't you hate it when you're riding your new banana seat home and all you see around you is smoke, smog, and power lines? You know I do smoochies, because things can mutate. So lover, are those Runts in your zipper or did your privates grow teeth? Hopefully the ants will stay small.
Teeth is a romping roller coaster of unbridaled squeals honey-pie. Sit down, relax, squirm a tad, and laugh at the blood! |

Action: 2/3 + Comedy: 1/2 + Good vs Evil: 1/1 + Love/Sex: 1/1 + Special Effects: 0/1 + Plot: 0.5/1 +Music: 0.5/1 = 6/10 or 60%.
Teeth summons uncomfortability simply by explaining the plot. The cleverness of the product comes in the initial subtleties, the background of smoke stacks imply mutation and the initial speeches such as the biology teacher explaining why rattle snakes have rattles. There is a reason this is straight to DVD however and that is the overall direction.
Any seasoned director would realize immediaitely that Teeth is a one joke product, similar to Liar, Liar. One joke in different situations. That's it. So why it reveals the fabled punch line in the first minute of viewing is a head scratcher. There are 89 minutes left to tell the same joke. Thus, the taboo topi... |

The idea was interesting but I’m afraid I can’t quite recommend it because there were too many empty moments where I thought, “Okay, just get on with the story already.” I’m talking about the shots when the camera would just stay fixed at one place or face. Usually, it works in more thoughtful movies but it did not work for this film because there wasn’t a deep enough story to merit such still shots designed to capture a character’s thoughts or genuine expression. Nonetheless, there were several highlights in this film–most often involves the main actress: Jess Weixler. I did enjoy scenes like the gynecologist’s office, the group date choosing which movie to watch, and the garage temptation. With a bit more material to work with, I think Weixler would’ve completely worked this film. Inste... |
