The film stars Addison Rae as the popular girl who has to give the unpopular boy, Taylor Buchanan, a makeover for the sake of a bet. The film’s rehash of the original is still slated as a romantic comedy, but critics did not receive the overall story well.
According to Rotten Tomatoes, He’s All That has received an overall audience score of twenty-five percent and an overall critical score of 33 percent.
One critic from Rotten Tomatoes claimed the film was “disappointing, both as a reimagining of She’s All That and as a film in its own right.”
Another critic stated:
Most reviews have been mixed, with some viewers finding the film to be of redeemable quality. Others have called the entire experience “awful” and “the worst film ever made.”
Many users have also been calling out Netflix for its blatant product placement in the film. However, Addison Rae combated these reviews with explanations.
