Whatever It Takes [2000]
Directed by: David Raynr
Some people will do whatever it takes to impress the person they are interested in. How far will Ryan go to impress Ashley Grant?
Another film I loved as a teen. This would be my first rewatch in awhile. I think the big takeaway is be careful what you wish for. You might realize what you wanted wasn't necessarily what you needed to bring out the best in you. To be yourself, because the person who really likes you will like you for you.
I did think it felt a little outdated for me. Then again, things I used to enjoy aren't necessarily what I do now. It wasn't terrible. It wasn't a 10. I think the appeal to me in my teens was the story of how love finds you rather unexpectedly and to be yourself. I promise it wasn't the cheesy sequence of Shane West dancing in his boxers in a cowboy hat having a moment playing the accordion to 'Play That Funky Music'. lol 🧀😆
7/10
