Good story, shame about the actors!
I rather enjoyed this rather predictable rom com, but the acting was contrived and a few things didn't make alot of sense (Dias gives Kutcher a coin
and tells him to email her???
And then ....
He slots it in the slot machine and wins the big jackpot: as far as I know, being to Vegas a few times, I have yet to see a casino that would pay out big bucks like 3 mil with just one coin played)Anyway, the people who made the movie obviously couldn't be bothered
with the glaringly obvious,smaller details that would have made the story more believable. But what was the hardest to believe was Dias and Kutcher's non existent, total lack of on screen chemistry. Dias is looking decidedly more pumped up in this film (I remember she used to have a really lovely, toned feminine body), and her rather masculine looking body, made me cringe when she turned up on screen with just her lacies on. I think she's just been over exposed playing the same ole dull quirky girl role (but hey at least the audience knows what to expect when they go and see a film with her in it). Kutcher was just slightly better, he actually managed to get the bad, bad boy gone good and serious in the end. Overall, I think the main actors were badly cast. I remember thinking how great Dias female brunette sidekick (Tipper?) would have been in the role.
Compared to tired ole Cameron, she's a breath of fresh air!
She's very pretty and interesting looking, totally great, and vibrant on screen with a slamming, hot body!Really everything a leading lady in a rom com should be these days. (talent not a requirement.Not these days anyway). -

100 minutes of cliche.
Okay, okay, so i'm a 32 year old bloke.... and this kind of film clearly isn't aimed at me. But i'm going to slate this anyway. K? K.
The film is so cliched its like watching a montage of chick flicks edited together. You could even mouth the dialogue before it had even left the shockingly wooden actors lips. This is so bad that at times I couldn't work out whether the whole thing was a satire sending up chick flicks.
Avoid. It could send a glass eye to sleep. -
