A
romantic comedy starring
Brooke Shields,
Chris O'Donell and
Renee Zellweiger.
Story Line:
A young
man (O'Donell) manages to botch his
marriage proposal to the girl of his
dreams and then discovers he will inherit
millions on the condition he marries
before his next birthday. The catch:
he has 2 days.
Desparate,
the next 24 hours are spent
looking up one old flame after another,
all of whom refuse his offer.
His friend wastse no time in placing a
classified along the lines of 'Would you
marry this man for a million dollars?'.
Needless to say, it hits the front page of
the paper, complete with a picture. The
hapless bridegroom is besieged in the
church by a sea of women in
white wedding dresses. 'Tis very comic scene
ending with him running down the street followed
by hundreds of women.
Of course, he gets
his girl and his money by the end of the movie.
My opinion:
Not worth the $9.50
I paid to see it. Most memorable part of the
movie is the following dialogue between
him and the girl he wants to marry:
Him, fumbling for composure and the nerve to
actually propose:
We have reached that stage
in our relationship.
Her, wishing he'd get down
on his knees or at least look more thrilled:
'Which stage?'
Him: You know...
Her: No, I don't.
Him: Uh,
shit or get off the pot?
I seem to pick the worst movies.
