Our Favorite Lady-Revenge Movies (Caution: Do Not Mix With Alcohol Post-Breakup)

Don't get me wrong—90 percent of the time, there's nothing better than a cotton-candy rom-com where boy loses girl, boy makes public show of morose repentance while wearing the hell out of a well-tailored suit, boy and girl stroll off happily into forever via cute Manhattan street.

But once in a while, you just gotta watch the male species get taken down in a good revenge movie. It's nothing personal, it's totally cathartic, and such films are chock-full of good ideas. (Kidding, all significant others. Or am I? Behave, and you won't have to find out.)

On the light side:

John Tucker Must Die

In which Jesse Metcalfe takes down so many ladies, who in turn join midriffs and take him down.
