Beautiful Men, Un-Pretty Woman, Hmmmmmmm

Rating: Null/10 (13 December 2001)

Hollywood's great gay casting directors have done it again and they must be proud. Clooney and Pitt couldn't possibly be better looking. Julia Roberts for the female lead? Maybe ten years ago. What's the one thing that all pop video's, black or white, have in commom. The men are all butt ugly and the women are drop dead gorgeous. I guess out of all those staggerring beauties, none of them can act, or, Hollywood film directors and pop video directors use different casting agencies. Very different.
At least Julia's a name star. But it's just impossible to believe that two super studs like Clooney and Garcia go to war over Roberts (maybe Eric instead). Oh, yes,
she's still pretty by real life standards. But in a film close-up? Puhlleassse.
Robert Redford can't play college kids no more nor can Marlon Brando be cast as the Thin Man. No matter how great the actor, you can't be the part if you don't look the part.
This is an Okay film at best. The lack of a real Hollywood beauty in the only female part hurts badly. And they'll pay for this at the box office.
When the credits said, "and introducing Julia Roberts", well, that was a cute touch at the end.
