Ridiculous

Rating: 1/10 (29 January 2014)

Anyone who has ever seen women working the streets in person, or even in a documentary on TV, should find this film to be ridiculous. They are living a wretched existence, usually to support a drug habit or an abusive pimp or both. Nothing glamorous about it.
Yet this film presents Julia Roberts as some sort of naive Girl-Scout-turned-hooker, all shiny and clean and cute and perky. Are they serious? And, yeah, right, a multi-millionaire venture capitalist is going to bed down with a street walker. Not in a million years.
Just stupid, unbelievable and ridiculous.
Gary Marshall, director of Lavernce and Shirley, directed this farce. It displays the same stupid unrealistic view of life.
