... View MoreThis movie that we grew up on is so horrible that its hard to believe the man who wrote it actually had us all fooled like this. A woman who is a prostitute, which everyone know means she is being abused by men everyday (if someone thinks otherwise then go educate yourself), and romanticising this into a romantic comedy?? What is wrong with you people? The guy is a doochbag! This isn't a romantic story, its just plain vile and Illogical. They could have just write the character as some maid or waitress but no they figured a woman who had to sell her body is such a cute idea and the man who is paying for it is a "prince".
... View MoreI am in love with this movie. Definitely in my top 5. I have watched it not less than 15 times at least, and sometimes even back to back. The actors have portrayed their roles really well, the scenes are a lovely reminder of late 1980's, and the songs blend in really well. Julia Roberts was perfect, she's independent, happy, and portrays a positive role for women, because it's not that she was rescued by a millionaire and transformed from being a prostitute, but her dedication to change to the betterment for herself. She wanted to do well in life, and she saw this opportunity to improve. I give this movie a 10/10 as not many movies have me watching them so often, and making me genuinely feel a part of them. I have the movie playing in the background as I type this. XD
... View MoreThere's science fiction that's more plausible than this movie. Let's start with the John's fiction. Apparently this is his first prostitute. He's not abusive, demeaning, and has no fetishes or perversions. Next we have a prostitute with no serious family or abuse issues, substance abuse or STD's. I guess because she's a executive hooker, she has to be white US citizen too.
... View MoreAn over-the-top elaborate extravaganza which pushes woman power down your throat like a roided up school bully. This is the kind of movie a woman with an extreme power complex would love, if she was straight, that is, and its a wonderful feeling. Most of the circumstances in this movie are absurd and very unlikely but it does posses a kind of class and a type of female domination theme. Great Movie.
