When In Rome


Movie Rating: PG-13

Movie Reviewer: LocoMonkey

Snack/Bathroom Break: It's only 1.5 hours, so you really don't need one...But if I have to choose one, I would say that it's when Beth gets back from Rome.

Review: This was the best chick flick movie I have seen in a long time! I remember Kristen Bell from "Veronica Mars" and of course I know of Josh Duhamel, but I didn't realize how many other famous people and familiar faces would be in this movie. It was fun just trying to remember where I had seen some of the actors before.

The movie is about a hard-working woman (Bell) who manages to incur magic that makes men fall in love with her. All the men are vastly different and try to approach her in different ways -- all of which are very humorous. Of course, since it is a chick flick, you know that there's going to be a happy ending, but getting there is nonetheless hugely enjoyable.

This movie was a little predictable, but it was just a fun movie that made you laugh loudly in places. It had the perfect amount of humor, sentiment, and a lot of actors that made it interesting. The time flew by quickly! The worst part for me was having to sit in the 3rd row (I got there late for the preview showing - wish I got to sit where the movie reviewers did!), but the movie was so engaging that I didn't even notice the pain in my neck from looking upward until after the movie ended. Oh, and I felt bad for Jon Heder (Napoleon Dynamite) having to play a weirdo again!
