Only in the movies...

Rating: 7/10 (3 July 2003)

No, wait...there really are "high" maintenance personalities and "needy" individuals who do fall in love or get dumped all within ten days...but what can I say, as CHICK flicks go, this one left me smiling (as in OH, my GOD...I know someone just like that)! McConaughey and Hudson are perfectly cast...who wouldn't be able to resist Matthew's lean body and glowing smile, complete with dimples...and let's not forget that charming Texas drawl...and Kate, don't you just want to pinch her cheek...she is such a cutie-pie-so reminiscent of mom, Goldie. These two actors on-screen chemistry stole the spotlight so much it makes me wonder why there was any supporting cast. Perhaps this film won't win any academy awards, but it will make you grin...and that's a winner in my book!
