DVD has multiple scratches and scuffs. I haven’t watched it yet, so I can’t say that it even plays all the way. Even if it does, putting “brand new conditions” in the description is completely inaccurate and misleading.

This movie delivers a very age old message- that TRUE beauty lies within- in a very UNIQUE way. Hal (Jack Black) is a regular guy, who is not successful with women because he is shallow- he only wants to be with women who look like supermodels (out of his league). Then one day he gets stuck in an elevator with Tony Robbins (THE motivational speaker). Robbins hypnotizes Hal so that can see a person's inner beauty on the outside, which has the effect of making women that most might see as physically unattractive appear very beautiful in his eyes. Therefore, when Hal meets Rosemary, a very kind-hearted person, he does not see what other people see (a 300 pound woman), he sees a woman that looks like Gweneth Paltrow and he falls in love with her. When Hal finally realizes what has happened (the hypnosis) he must decide what is more important- outside appearances, or true love. **NOTE- I was concerned before I watched this movie that it might make fun of people who are overweight. I did not find this to be the case- although this movie is DEFINITELY a comedy, I do not believe the humor is presented in a way that exploits Rosemary's weight. In contrast, I think that most of the humor is directed toward Hal (and his shallow attitude). HOWEVER, I can still see how SOME people might be offended or embarrassed by the issue of weight, as presented in this movie... Just something to keep in mind, if you are bothered by these kids of topics...Read full review
A great movie! So entertaining...and it speaks volumes about seeing a person on their inner self instead of their looks. Great cast...funny and touching moments...and great music!

I just love this movie. I had forgotten how cute this movie was until I saw it again. It's funny, witty, charming, and a great story. They writers went outside the box on this romantic comedy. You'd think it was just another chick; flick guy meets girl, falls in love and has to win her, but it's not. It's a great movie. Hope you like the movie as much as I did. cmmorsey
