My only favorite Robert Rodriguez movie and Starring Elijah Wood (The Ice Storm) and newcomer Josh Hartnett (Halloween H20: 20 Years Later). This movie is like The Body Snatchers meets The Breakfast Club. And that is absouletly correct.... Full review

The Faculy was a decent horror/sci-fi movie. It was kind of scary and gory but nothing too intense. I like Jordana Brewster, she's hot! This movie is kind of disturbing, like when the aliens sniff the drug (what happens is disturbing)... Full review

Even the Tommy Hilfiger ad campaign, which would make one believe that R&B star Usher was the main attraction of "The Faculty," quickly wore out their welcome. Buena Vista has made "The Faculty" available on DVD via their usual featureless, high-priced ($29.99) package. ... Full Review

Ain't It Cool Movie Reviews
I think this film is fantastic. But all the young actors in the film are wonderful. It wouldn't matter that the movie was great. Yet "The Faculty" still profusely kicked ass. This film deserves to do huge business. You should know better. ... Full Review
