Movie synopsis

This teen psychodrama directed by John Polson plays like a Generation Y version of FATAL ATTRACTION. Ben Cronin (Jesse Bradford) is a high school swimmer with an incredibly promising future. On the verge of securing a scholarship to Stanford, and in love with the too-good-to-be-true Amy (Shiri Appleby), Ben seems to have it all. But the arrival of a new student threatens to ruin everything Ben has worked so hard to attain. Temptation arrives in the form of Madison Bell (Erika Christiansen), a beautiful, sultry cellist whose overt sexuality is too much for Ben too handle. In a fit of passion, he succumbs to her advances, but is immediately wracked with guilt. Trying to eradicate his mistake before it can escalate any further, Ben confronts Madison. To his dismay, he discovers that she has formed an abnormally strong attachment to him. Soon, Ben has been accused of taking steroids, fired from his hospital job, and targeted by the police for trying to kill Amy. With the help of friends, Ben must find a way to expose Madison and stop her reign of terror. Polson's entertaining film is fueled by an amped hard rock soundtrack and Louis Febre's moody score.

Entertainment Weekly - Owen Gleiberman (09/20/2002)

"...The film is a fine showcase for Christensen..."

Fatal Attraction - The High School Years

Created: 12/10/06
It was my wifes turn to pick a movie and this was it. Normally I don't care much for her selection. (Seriously if I have to sit through Pretty Woman one more time I might just vomit).

I was ready to mourn two hours of my life I'd never get back.. but it never came to that.

This movie is - more or less - about a jock that has it all and blows it for a hot chick. Typical man.. thinking with the wrong head.. and it causes all sorts of Fatal Attraction-esque action.

While the movie does seem to be inspired by bits and pieces of other movies (Fatal Attraction is one of them), I think it came off fairly well. (At least for a movie dealing with High School kids). It may be a bit predictable at times, but it's still a fun movie to watch. Erika Christensen gives the best performance in the movie and plays well off of Jesse Bradford - who seemed to be pushing the limits of his acting ability in this one.

Bottom Line: If you're over thirty it may not work for you, but 20-somethings and teens should find it worth the time and money.

Great Movie

Created: 27/04/09
Yes, some parts of the movie are predictable, but it is still a great movie. The first time I saw this movie it was on TV a few years ago, and they ended up playing it a few times that month. I ended up watching it about 4 times that whole month.

This is the kind of movie that you want to watch over, and over again. That is why I decided to purchase the DVD, this way I could watch it whenever. I've had the movie for a couple of weeks now and I've already watched it twice.

Great movie. I recommend this movie to anyone who likes exciting thrillers. Sexy scenes.
