This girl can live next door to me anytime.

Rating: 10/10 (13 April 2004)

I went in to this film expecting nothing really> I had read bad reviews and wasnt optimistic. Much to my surprise good old Roger Ebert was out to lunch again. To old to connect with a film like this. Not since his review of mallrats (1.5/4) has he been so out to lunch. I think Mallrats is one of the funniest and best comedies of the 90s and one of my fave films of all time, much like this film that ebert also gave a 1.5. I thought this film had a great concept, good pacing, I laughed quite often, and I liked the cast and how the characters were developed. There were certainly moments where you questioned a characters motivations but the film makers redemed their actions in the end. This is certainly not a perfect film and flaws it does have but still a film I am still thinking about more than a week after seeing it and hoping the DVD has great features. Frankly, I love the girl next door.
