The Perfect Man

Saw this at a press preview and was sadly disappointed. Even though Heather Locklear is nice to look at, I disliked her selfish character right from the beginning. This dark subject was portrayed with too much fluff and the movie was wrought with simple errors and missing elements. In one scene, Jean is asked to go to a Styx concert and says, "Who is Styx?" In the next scene, she knows the band well enough to know the people on stage aren't the real singers. (They're a tribute band.) Holly's young friend (and niece to Pefect man) disappears 3/4 into the movie never to be seen again. The flaming gay stereotyped bartender added nothing to the plot but comic relief. Don't waste your money at the box office. If you must see it, wait for Netflix.

Really ridiculous film where a mother, constantly being dumped by men, moves with her daughters. I thought I would be in for another "The Goodbye Girl," but unfortunately it was not to be. The highlight of this inane nonsense is at an orientation for parents when our mom stands up and asks if there is time devoted for single parents, since the latter have a different perspective than those of married parents. The daughter cringed when she heard this. So did I. Chris Noth co-stars in this nonsense. The girl's older daughter wants to make a match with him and his mother. We know how this will turn out by why the foolishness. We get assorted emails, a young guy playing the role of an older man to fool the mom, who then turns the tables on him as well. Ridiculous. Hilary Duff-get yourself better pictures than this!

Tonight I saw a "Perfect Man". While there were a few inconsistencies such as bad Brooklyn Accents and that Holly (Hillary Duff) was 16 and driving in NYC, you must be 18 to drive within the city limits, the movie itself was great. I am the daughter of divorced parents, as so many of us in today's world. I always resented that my mother changed my sister and my lives to benefit her own. However we saw this movie together and after we both had a really good cry. She related to Jean (Heather Locklear), a single mother who moved over a man. And I related to Holly (Duff) who didn't want to move and had to leave her friends behind. Although it's not clear if the mother was divorced or never married, this movie was an amazing account of the divorcée and her daughters attempts to get things right.

I don't know why in the first place I'm so obsessed to find an original copy for this movie. Seeing the trailer was a means of breakdown, a failure to my expectations. I was excited to watch the movie to consider Heather Locklear and Hilary Duff would be working in the same film, but the plot was quite unconvincing, however for some reason I could not totally hate it. The setting of the story was cute, fine and atmospheric, but the its feeble plot remind me of knocking my prospects once again instead of knocking my socks off. Nothing interesting so far, but a simple movie with half-wits, half drama and half phase turning enigmas. If you're in the mood this may spoil your disposition or maybe freeze your temper.

OK. I'm a Caucasian male in my 30's, there is no reason this film should appeal to me. So, I had the opportunity to see it last night. It has been a long time since I've been so pleasantly surprised in a movie theater. Firstly, the performances were great- Duff and Locklear (I never liked her before, but she's funny and beautiful and delivers... crazy) were dynamic and interesting. Noth is kind of irritating, but I guess some people find him sexy. Anyway, what on the face is a silly small tale is in fact a movie of surprising depth about relationships, the fear of solitude, and familial interaction. Who the hell knew a director of pulpy TV stuff had this in him? I'm considering that perhaps I was emotionally available or vulnerable, but objectively, the film-making is consummate. It looks great- like a big 80's comedy, nice and vivid and bright. So, don't fight if you are taken by a wife/daughter... you will be nicely surprised.

Hilary Duff once again steps into her comfortable role as the good girl next door, this time as Heather Locklear's daughter. Tired of her mom having a breakdown and moving every time she gets dumped by another third rate guy. To prevent going on another "adventure", and to save her mother's self esteem, Holly concocts a plot for the imaginary perfect man for her mother. The film is charming. Although it's no Oscar contender, this film exists to entertain and make audiences laugh. There are some cheesy moments and lines, but it doesn't hurt the film. Hilary Duff has improved her acting even more since 2004's "Raise Your Voice" and Heather Locklear adds a certain flair to the story not always seen in a Hilary Duff movie. The sub romantic plot between Holly and Ben is sweet, and you get some scenic views of New York, all of which helps to make a pleasurable movie that should've been a hit but instead got swallowed up by blockbusters at the box office.
