Jennifer's Body

Just now I was fortunate enough to get to watch the premier screening of Jennifer's Body thanks to my friend, who won the 'Jennifer's Body Movie Redemption' from The Star Online.

Picked the tickets at Studio-V @ 1Utama

9.3opm show, Hall 4 at Cathay Cineplex Damansara

Since it was free sitting, we went to the e@Curve an hour early to make sure we got the best sit in the hall. After sitting through a-30-minute-advertisements, the movie finally starts.. Here's a summary on the movie if you are interested to watch it this Thursday.



Summary of Jennifer's Body

The movie is about two high school BFF who are the opposites of each other. Jennifer (acted by the scrumptious Megan Fox) is a gorgeous and stuck-up cheerleader, while Needy (Amanda Seyfried) is a nerd who is also Jennifer's life-long best friend.

One night, a gang of rockers called "Low Shoulder" from the city came to their small home town, Devil's Kettle in Minnesota to play at a club. Jennifer asked Needy to go to the club with her to watch the band as she had a big crush on the lead singer. While the band was playing, the club suddenly got on fire and everyone was panic and pushing one another trying to escape, but Needy managed to escape with Jennifer through the bathroom window.

When they got outside, the bands were already outside and asked them to get to their van to be safe. Needy, who has a bad feeling on the guys did not joined them but Jennifer, who was somewhat hypnotized or something followed them into the van. The terror began after the incident at the club.

To make the story short - The rocker band from the city was actually looking for a virgin girl to be sacrificed to the devil so that they can make it as a successful band in the city. But what they did not know was that Jennifer is not a virgin and by scarifying an impure soul, the demon will reside in the victim's body forever and will feed on human flesh to sustain itself. Her victims are mostly guys since all of them could not resist her. After Jennifer told Needy what happened that night of the fire, Needy searched everything about the occult practices and tried to tell her boyfriend Chip about Jennifer but of course he did not believed her.

After Jennifer had her last victim, Chip, Needy was determined to kill Jennifer. One night she went to Jennifer's house and stabbed her chest and killed her. But unfortunately, Jennifer's mum suddenly came in the room and saw Needy on top of her daughter with a knife on Jennifer's chest. Needy was sent to the mental institute or something and she was not the old nerdy Needy. Being bitten by a Demon and survived somehow gave Needy some of the Demon's power and ability. She broke out of the institute, and while walking she saw the knife that the rocker band used to sacrificed Jennifer. She then went to the city and killed the band with the knife.

For me, I gave the movie 3.5 out of 5, and my friend gave it 2.5 out of 5. For me, the movie is not boring or anything, I was actually fascinated with the Demon's power and I actually said "I want to be like that..." HAHHHA! But like my friend said, the script was not that good, and they tried to make it sound like an everyday teenage conversation, but I guess it didn't really worked.

There were a lot of scenes that was cut and I guess when it comes out to the cinema, a lot more scenes will be cut.

I really like the soundtrack of the movie and most of the songs are nice to listen to, especially the one sang by the Low Shoulder - Through the Trees. If you want the soundtracks, you can give me a buzz ;)
