- Synopsis:
A cool cast of young stars is just one of the things you'll love about this hilarious comedy hit! On the first day of his new school, Cameron (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) instantly falls for Bianca (Larisa Oleynik) the gorgeous girl of his dreams. The only problem is that Bianca is forbidden to date: unless her ill-tempered, completely undateable older sister Kat (Julia Stiles) goes along for the ride too! In an attempt to solve this problem, Cameron singles out the only guy who could possibly be a match for Kat: a mysterious bad-boy with a nasty reputation of his own! Also featuring a hip soundtrack - this witty comedy is a wildly entertaining look at exactly how far some guys will go to get a date! - Actors:

Shakespeare, But Make It Bayside - 10 Things I Hate About You review by griggs
There’s something cosy about a late-’90s high school movie where the stakes are mostly social and the campus looks like a postcard. This one earns its keep by wearing the genre like a costume and slipping Shakespeare into the pockets — The Taming of the Shrew in a letterman jacket.
Julia Stiles is the main event. Kat’s not just “difficult”; she’s guarded, bright, and fed up with being managed. Heath Ledger’s charm is doing cardio the whole time, and that big musical gesture is still ridiculous in a pleasing way. The supporting cast keeps things buzzy, and the script has a decent hit rate.
But the plot is literally powered by a paid-dating scheme, and the film sometimes wants credit for irony without doing the hard work of critique. Enjoyable, quotable, and a bit more awkward than the nostalgia suggests.
