    Something of a featherweight, but it's also a positively divine comedy.
  2. 60
    Quite enjoyable on its own terms.
  3. A temptation that can be easily and safely resisted.

    In this movie Liz Hurley gave Chile an earthquake... she's so hot, that we don't care about that.

    A breezy comedy that is so easy to take thanks to sexy Hurley and likeable goof Fraser, who is shaping up into a comic superstar.

    A great film, with a great cast. Liz Hurley, makes the devil steamy.
  4. You can get a few good laughs of this movie (thanks to the script), but from that to have scores above 6 out of 10 it's crazy, Fraser as always, over acting and yelling. Some people say that it doesn't matter that the movie it's dumb because all comedies have to be stupid and I totally disagree with that point of view, I do like fine, intelligent comedians in the movies. I think this movie deserves a 5 out of 10 but since it's being overrated this is my score. Expand
