This is a fun light-hearted romp in the tradition of the Doris Day & Rock Hudson sex farce movies of the past. Rene Zellweger gets to play a sexy character with a ton of wonderful costume changes. After her role in Cold Mountain, she shows that she can be sexy too. She even sings a song on the extras section of the disc. I was impressed that this extremely versatile actress could pull off the character, but she does it in grand fashion and steals the show! Nothing heavy here, just a fun movie with a light plot, but worth it because of Zellweger's amazing range.
I bought this DVD because I usually enjoy the movies in which Renee Zellwegger stars and from the synapsis, I thought it looked to be an interesting movie. In favor of the movie, I would have to say that Zellwegger's performance was her usual - very good. The story was good and there were plenty of opportunities for comedy in the situations the leading man and lady found themselves in. I laughed repeatedly as a result of these situations. The down side of this movie, I would say is that the sexual overtones were not subtle enough for my taste. There was simply no "mystery" or "sexual intrigue" which should have left the viewer interested and wondering, on the edge of their seat concerning the possibility of the leads having any sexual interest with oneanother. Given that the movie was set in a less sexually blatant era, this obvious sexuality was not true to the era inwhich it was set either. Overall, this was an "okay" movie, and unfortunately it didn't quite measure up to its description, in my opinion.Read full review
Down with love... Funny, cute movie. If you grew up enjoying shows like- That Girl, Mary Tyler Moore & Bewitched...You will love this. Has ALL the 60's & 70's vibe. Renee Zellweger is one of my favorite actresses, she did an amazing job! Don't expect anything deep, really this is a quirky comedy. 👍
