Shallow, rich and socially successful Cher (Alicia Silverstone) is at the top of her Beverly Hills high school's pecking scale. Seeing herself as a matchmaker, Cher first coaxes two teachers into dating each other. Emboldened by her success, she decides to give hopelessly klutzy new student Tai (Brittany Murphy) a makeover. When Tai becomes more popular than she is, Cher realizes that her disapproving ex-stepbrother (Paul Rudd) was right about how misguided she was -- and falls for him.

Critics Consensus

A funny and clever reshaping of Emma, Clueless offers a soft satire that pokes as much fun at teen films as it does at the Beverly Hills glitterati.

Overall Heckerling has perfectly captured the essence of Austen's comedy.

This movie is satirical. And hysterical.

Kristin Tillotson

Minneapolis Star Tribune

Silverstone's read of Cher -- not to mention her overflowing cup of cuteness -- makes the character likable.

Rated: 3/5

Deep Focus Review

With a confident irony that never robs its characters of their integrity, Heckerling takes Clueless into a realm that both comments on and inhabits the teen movie archetype, so that what’s left goes beyond the genre’s conventions and builds upon them.

Rated: 4/4

Adult spectators won't watch it, and the Cher's of society will never understand its irony. [Full review in Spanish]

Clueless was not as annoying as I had expected and actually had its share of hilarious moments.

A teenager tells her friends that size doesn't matter, as long as it's not bent. Later, she begins a romantic relationship with her step-brother, who is in college. Gross... and this movie is not funny at all.

Johann D. M

This 1995 coming-of-age teen comedy is a loose adaptation of Jane Austen's 1815 novel Emma and centers on a shallow, popular, and rich high school student who befriends a new girl and decides to give her a makeover while playing matchmaker for her teachers and examining her own existence. The film boasts impeccable writing, hilarious dialogue, and unforgettable caricatured characters. The unique scenes make it an incredibly fun and entertaining watch. It is a classic, charming story that perfectly captures its era. Plus, the soundtrack is amazing!

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Divertido, leve, fofo e muito interessante. Um trio de meninas lindas, se unem para viver altas aventuras no colégio experimentando vivências que cada cinéfilo desejaria estar no lugar delas. Um clássico fashion do cinema que causa boa nostalgia.
