A cynical and intelligent satire that deserves credit for its deliciously witty dialogue, great performances and a clever game of colors that contrasts blue and red, even if the film is a bit tonally dissonant when it becomes too serious and dark in its third act.

Wasn't quite the film I remembered but it still had that biting satire that black comedies lack these days. Cult favourite that everyone should have seen

An enjoyable 80s comedy, which hits a nice dark tone. It's clear to see the movies it inspired, like American Beauty with the high school relationships. I was entertained and laughing through the movie, but outside of a great cast (Veronique is a babe) there's not many cinematic elements that stand out.

Dark, seditious, wicked, devious, hilarious -- all of these words could be used to described "Heathers," one of the best, most cynical black comedies out there. It's likably uncomfortable, quotable to an almost ridiculous degree and Winona Ryder and Christian Slater (in a psychotic performance) are both perfect as their characters. Satire as never been done quite as well anywhere else as it is done here.
