10 Things I Hate About You (1999), directed by Gil Junger is a romantic comedy based on Shakespeare’s play The Taming of the Shrew. Set in Seattle, Washington, this teen romance is a perfect synthesis of comedy, charm, and character development, mixed with the dramas of high school. This film is a classic romantic comedy and fits in the subgenre of “the bet” or “the lie.” Other romantic comedies in this subgenre can include: She’s All That (1999), How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2003), and Not Another Teen Movie (2001). All four of these films involve some sort of wager or lie against a social outcast, whether it be to fall in love, take them on a date, or become prom queen. What makes these films part of the romantic comedy genre is that the gambler and his “bet” end up falling in love with each other; the people that are conventionally not supposed to be together end up in love.
In this film, sisters Kat (Julia Stiles) and Bianca (Larisa Oleynik) are the complete opposite; Kat is a hard-headed, rebellious, independent athlete, while Bianca is the bubbly, popular, outgoing younger sister. After hearing that Bianca wants to start dating, the Stratford sister’s protective father, Walter (Larry Miller), lays down one rule: Bianca can date when Kat does. Cameron (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), who is smitten with Bianca, and Michael (David Krumholtz) learn of this rule and hire Joey Donner (Andrew Keegan), the rich, pompous, popular guy. The actual bet starts when the duo explains to Joey that if he gets someone to take out Kat, he can take Bianca to prom. Joey pays the school's scary outcast, Patrick Verona (Heath Ledger), to take out Kat, so that Joey can date Bianca. At first, this seems like a great plan, however, Kat Stratford is not exactly known for her peppy personality; one of the first scenes of the movie is of Kat driving to school, blaring her rock music and then tearing down a poster for the school’s prom. This is the same for Patrick Verona who drills a hole in Cameron’s textbook when he tries to speak with Patrick.
The biggest strength of this movie is the charismatic and appealing cast. Each actor and actress are the perfect people to play each of their characters. The relationship between Patrick, the duo (Cameron and Michael), and Joey is where a lot of the comedy stems from. The dynamic of these four characters interacting with each other shows how good the writing is, and how the actors bring their characters to life. Even with Kat and Patrick, they are both stubborn, independent individuals. Their interactions truly show how Kat brings out the best in Patrick, and how Patrick puts even the smallest of smiles on Kat’s face.
Each person does something out of character for the person they love; Patrick performs a song in front of an entire soccer game for Kat, Cameron attempts to learn French for Bianca, Kat flashes her soccer coach in order to get Patrick out of detention, and Bianca punches Joey in the face to defend Cameron. These scenes are aspects of the “rom” in this rom-com, because they display the lengths that these characters will go to for the person they love.
10 Things I Hate About You (1999) is a classic example of a romantic comedy. At one point in your life, everyone needs to watch a romantic movie and this is the perfect one. The writing is well-crafted and allows the actors/actresses to immerse themselves in their role. There is romance, charm, comedy, and so much more that would appeal to all audiences.

É meu filme favorito há alguns anos, sou suspeita para falar, mas a história é muito interessante, amo Hate to lovers, em livro e em filmes!
“10 Coisas que Eu Odeio em Você” é uma comédia romântica incrível que adapta a essência de “A Megera Domada”, de Shakespeare, para um cenário moderno de ensino médio. Lançado em 1999, o filme continua sendo um favorito atemporal!
A história gira em torno de Kat, uma jovem forte e independente, alheia ao interesse em namorar ou seguir convenções sociais, ela só buscava sua faculdade e estudos. Sua irmã mais nova, Bianca, queria desesperadamente namorar, era uma chata mimada, e só poderia namorar quando Kat também tivesse um namorado, seguindo as regras impostas por seu pai. Para resolver isso, Patrick, um estudante “rebelde”, é pago para conquistar Kat.
O ponto alto do filme é a química entre eles, que dão vida à relação em desenvolvimento de seus personagens com naturalidade e emoção. Stiles captura a personalidade decidida de Kat, enquanto Ledger combina carisma e vulnerabilidade em Patrick.
As cenas do casal são cheias de humor inteligente e momentos emocionantes que conquistam o público.
O elenco de apoio contribui com humor e profundidade à narrativa. Joseph Gordon-Levitt se destaca como Cameron, um estudante apaixonado por Bianca, e Larry Miller, como o pai superprotetor, garante várias risadas. Além disso, personagens excêntricos, como a conselheira escolar e o professor de inglês, adicionam charme à trama.
Embora o filme use clichês típicos de histórias colegiais e tenha pontos previsíveis, ele compensa com diálogos espirituosos, atuações genuínas e um toque nostálgico.
A trilha sonora merece destaque, especialmente a cena icônica em que Heath Ledger canta “Can't Take My Eyes Off You” para Kat!!! >Minha cena favorita<.
Em resumo, “10 Coisas que Eu Odeio em Você” moderniza com sucesso um clássico de Shakespeare. Com atuações marcantes, uma história envolvente e personagens cativantes, o filme continua conquistando gerações. Inclusive a X.
Seja você fã de Shakespeare ou apenas em busca de um filme leve e divertido, esse é o filme!
