Absolutely the worst movie.
... View MoreFanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
... View MoreI think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
... View MoreThe plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
... View MoreHead Over Heels (2001): Dir: Mark Waters / Cast: Monica Potter, Freddie Prinze Jr., Shalom Harlow, Sarah O'Hare, Tomiko Fraser: Exaggerated mess about wrong impressions and curiosity that leads to trouble. Monica Potter preserves portraits and lives with four brainless supermodels and they believe that Freddie Prinze Jr. murdered someone in the apartment across the way. She goes undercover with the brainless supermodels to find out whether this seemingly sweet guy is a killer. Mark Waters directs this crap half-heartedly and the reference to the great Alfred Hitchcock masterpiece Rear Window is obvious but the difference is that the Hitchcock film is engaging and suspenseful while the Waters film is merely stupid. Then we are given the Russian mob plus toilet humour complete with sound effects. Potter plays an idiot with weak knees who is constantly saying the wrong thing. She is featured in a scene where a dog jumps her from behind and appears to be humping her. This cannot be her best moment. This also ranks in a long list of terrible performances by Prinze Jr. whose identity will surprise no one. The four supermodels are also a bad distraction of complete overacting. None of them are given an ounce of personality and they greatly subtract any credibility every time they open their mouths. Absurd comedy should be tossed head over heels into the back of a garbage truck. Score: 2 / 10
... View MoreHead Over Heels is a comedy misfire if ever there was one. It has some interesting moments, but in the end a rather stupid plot defeats all the players involved. That and the premise that fashion models must be brain dead as well as beautiful to qualify for the job.Monica Potter who works restoring paintings at the Metropolitan Museum Of Art gets an opportunity to move in with four fashion models who apparently on everyone else's dime and sublet a room in their swanky apartment for a little extra spending loot. If you add up all the working brain cells that the four have you might have one functioning brain.She also meets Freddie Prinze, Jr. who's also in the fashion game and she can see right into his apartment and sees one night him commit a murder. Now how could this sexy guy be a murderer. Well ask such charming characters as Ted Bundy and if he were he'd tell you. Potter decides to investigate Prince which includes a wild night of sex with her model onlookers.If this was Prinze's idea of an adult role he should have stuck to films like Summer Catch and being a teen dream for a bit longer. The film is highly embarrassing for the players, I feel for them.
... View MoreHEAD OVER HEELS, in my opinion, is a heartwarming, hilarious, romantic, and touching romantic comedy. If you ask me, the way that Jim (Freddie Prinze Jr.) and Amanda (Monica Potter) met was pure magic. This was because they were walking along and minding their own business. Plus, it was love at first sight. A lot of people have said that this is one of the worst movies they've ever seen, but I strongly disagree. This is a great movie with terrific performances from very talented actors and actresses. Before I wrap this up, I'd like to say, "This is a perfect movie to see with the one you love!" Now, in conclusion, to all you Freddie Prinze Jr. or Monica Potter fans that have not seen this heart-warming, hilarious, romantic, and touching romantic comedy, I highly recommend it! When you see it, prepare to laugh and have a good time.
... View MoreI caught this movie on TNT today and am honestly surprised by how many people on this board think it's a delightful romantic comedy. Almost everything about it is contrived, ill- conceived, and just plain un-funny. It annoyed me from the very beginning, when the woman's co-worker brought her a coffee whilst she was RESTORING A RENAISSANCE PAINTING. I'm usually not nit-picky about little details like this, but come on! It's highly unlikely, nay impossible, that the Metropolitan Museum of Art would allow their restorers to sip coffee around 600 year old paintings. It's a little thing yes, but it just goes to show how slipshod this movie really is. Don't ask me why I actually sat through the entire thing, because I honestly don't know. It was a little like rubbernecking a trainweck, I guess.
