  1. In Duff's movies, the question is whether the movie will find enough interesting stuff to compensate for the blandness at the center. The Perfect Man does.
  2. There's one thing to be said for The Perfect Man: It confirms my belief that I'll never need to see another Hilary Duff movie until (1) she turns 30 or (2) she plays a crackhead in "Requiem for a Dream II."
  3. The story has a definite ick factor that detracts from even the small pleasures the movie might offer its teen audience.

    Duff sucked, as she does in all of her movies. Locklear sucked, everyone sucked. This movie sucks!
