Snow White, 2008 style. Shelley (Anna Faris) may be pure as the driven slush but she’s got the proverbial heart of gold, and her ignorance more than counterbalances her lack of... read more »

superb.......................
This dvd is superb. This romantic comedy stars Anna Faris, Colin Hanks, Emma Stone, Katharine McPhee, Rumer Willis, Dana Goodman, Kiely Williams, Tyson Ritter, and Kat Dennings.
The Film is very similar to the fabulous film - Legally Blonde. In fact it has the same director - Fred Wolf in charge, and the films executive producers are Anna Faris herself and the very funny Adam Sandler.
The film is about a 27 year old Playboy bunny, called Shelly Darlington (played by Anna Faris), who is kicked out of the Playboy mansion because she is considered to be to old.
Subsequently, she stumbles upon the Greek Row campus of a university, and becomes the house leader of a sorority group called Zeta Alpha Zeta.
The members of the sorority sisters - who also have got to be the seven most socially clueless women on the planet - are about to lose their house.
These sorority sisters are characterised as social outcasts, something the former bunny plans to fix.
The movie also features songs by artists such as Rihanna, Ashlee Simpson, Metro Station, The Cab, Ingrid Michaelson, Phantom Planet and Avril Lavigne.
The message of this film is that:
The girls need the support of what only the eternally bubbly Shelly can provide... but they will each learn on their own, to stop pretending to be what others want them to be, and start being themselves.
Well worth watching. -

MUCH better than it sounds..
If the title or picture on the box is putting you off, don't let it. It really was one of those films that I was dragged to watch not really being too enthusiastic and I left shouting its praises. Shelly (Anna Faris) is the subject of some jealous attention in the Playboy Mansion that sees her unfairly moved out. Her not too extensive search for alternative accomodation finds her on the doorstep of a geeky sorority house on a college campus. Once there she turns the geeky girls lives upside down. The whole thing has a life of its own as a silly fluffy inane bit of cinema, and that is nothing to be ashamed of as it is all the better for it. Definately recommended for a real light funny cutesy night in, I really enjoyed it.
