I love this film. The songs are good. I like the overall photography, like the slow-mo pool scene, and the group fooling around during the roadtrip. There is the usual dumb-dumbs with the victims, and some things were left explained (the latter is fine with me, you don't see old slasher/horror films explaining aggressor's background story, do you?) All in all, the film succeeded in building up a feel-good atmosphere before mowing down everyone mercilessly. Top it with a twist, and boom!

pretty good, amberfever

Oh Garth, you're so dreamy. (4/5)

Much like Herzog's Nosferatu (no similarities outside this one thing), it's a horror movie that feels like it was made by someone who's never seen a horror movie in his whole life and gets to make it all up again. It's bloody, believable and absolutely beautiful.

This is just yet another teenage slasher flick that we have seen many times before. You don't care about any of the characters so when they die you think so what don't care. The so called twist at the end was so damn predictable that you see it coming pretty much from the start. It brings nothing new to the genre. Best to avoid as at the end you really feel like you have wasted an hour and a half of your life

This movie is good up until the last act; It completely falls apart and ruins the whole movie, and never explains anything.

+20 for Amber Heard in her undies.

Surprisingly nice done little horror gem. Great cinematography, cool soundtrack and all the boys will love Amber Heard.

It had me excited for five seconds.

There’s a lot of unique moments among a lot of borrowed moments, but it all works together to present that old school atmosphere a-la “The Last House on the Left” and other B-movies of the 70s. Don’t go in expecting a blood bath extravaganza; “Mandy Lane” is a subtle, yet terrifying movie that is more connected with its roots than with making its audience sick.

The film sort of has that cool old '70s slasher feel to it, which makes it a refreshing change from the crappy remakes of cool old '70s slashers that the audiences have been bombarded with lately. There's lots of nice little scenes that flesh out the characters and make them feel realer than your average teen horror cannon fodder. Still I find the story pretty forgettable as a whole, there's nothing particularly memorable in the movie that sticks with you after the credits roll.

I read somewhere about an incredible plot twist and it took me about 10 seconds to realise what it would be.

Levine shows that he knew how to make great looking scenes before The Wackness but that's about the only thing All the Boys Love Mandy Lane has to offer.

"...suffers a little bit from serious-itis."

Pretty well done horror flick, though the script is not that special. Well acted, interestingly directed and edited, and though the script follows pretty usual path, it adds on a way quite much additional material which I liked a lot. Camera really loves Mandy Lane, but in the end something was still missing to rise the story even more higher.

This movie is garbage. The characters are trite pieces of garbage. The plot is lame, predictable and slow. If you want to see teenagers getting killed somewhere out in the sticks go rent Evil Dead or the Hole instead of this crap.

I know what Mandy Lane did last summer.

this movie has the 70's feel to it...I can see why people hate this movie..it took so long for anything to happen, but I found the characters decent the script was fun to me..but the kills were kinda cool and the end delivered...

Nothing special. Script is poor, directing is poor, camera is poor, acting not bad. Predictable and already seen in much much better movies.

"Like far too many modern horror films, All the Boys Love Mandy Lane flaunts its knowledge of classic genre fundamentals but fails to do anything very clever or surprising with them." - Nick Schager

Armed with a synthetic music video aesthetic and a dubious grasp of slasher film tropes, Jonathan Levine concocts a skin-deep rumination on genre and teen culture that lazily adheres to convention sans satire and erudition. Truly, All the Boys Love Mandy Lane is no more worthy an entry into the horror genre than films like Prom Night and Graduation Day -- junk slashers that signified nothing.
