What to Know

Critics Consensus

Jennifer's Body features occasionally clever dialogue, but its horror/comedy premise ultimately fails to be consistently funny or scary enough to satisfy.

Kjerstin Johnson Bitch Media It's not just a feminist thumbs down, it's like a... movie thumbs down. Dec 22, 2020 Full Review Chris Stuckmann ChrisStuckmann.com What I love about this movie is, surprisingly, that Megan Fox is excellent. Rated: A- Oct 28, 2020 Full Review Mark Kermode BBC.com Not without its problems, but it is an enjoyable romp. Mar 29, 2019 Full Review Jessica Gonzales Geek Vibes Nation It is empowering to women and spits in the face of misogyny. Much like many things in life, it is more layered and intricate than it seems upon first glance. Jul 17, 2025 Full Review Marya E. Gates Cool People Have Feelings, Too. (Substack) There’s so much righteous anger in this movie, not just about the way girls are treated and about bodily autonomy, but also about the recession and America’s weird post-9/11 jingoist patriotism. Feb 13, 2024 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review For a horror comedy, Jennifer’s Body is conspicuously unfunny and unscary. Rated: 1/4 Aug 30, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Luiza A This is an iconic movie that it is a crime to have such low critic scores!! Amanda Seyfried and Meghan Fox absolutely killed it Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/11/25 Full Review Maddie R i don’t know wtf the critics are talking about, but this is a gorgeous movie with clever writing about the effects of sexual assault. plus, there’s some gorgeous shots, like when jennifer is floating above Needy and Chip with her soaking wet dress, or when the camera zooms in super fast from really far away on the jock. This is a great film! My only problem is that some of the CGI looks bad but i can easily oversee that. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/09/25 Full Review perksofbeingmimie _ It was so good so basically Jennifer being sacrificed by those men symbolises SA and her becoming a man eating demon after shows the effects of SA and how a victim tries to gain back her power after it .Its very educational and judging by the amount of 40 year opd white mean rating it down I can say it was way ayead of its time Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/03/25 Full Review Nick O Popular high school mean girl turns into a man-eating demon…kinda like Heathers meets Evil Dead! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/20/25 Full Review ATL i irreverent horror, but I found it fun. Happy I watched this and is for sure going on the October watchlist ! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/26/25 Full Review Kavyn K Absolutely amazing!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/26/25 Full Review Read all reviews
