When In Rome... Don't Bother

Yeah, I went to go see When in Rome. Why? Because I can't stand Mel Gibson.

Since that is out of the way....

When In Rome is a classic romantic comedy (which is Latin for Chick Flick) where a young girl who is dedicated to her job steals some coins from a special fountain in Rome that makes some yuppies fall in love with her.

The story line isn't bad, but the preview pretty much show it all. Especially the funny parts. So if you don't want to spend money on this flick, just youtube the damn thing.

I must admit though, I did laugh a time or two. This means that there was some clever lines in this film. Just FYI. However, most of the dialog in the film was pretty cliche. Some of the jokes were predictable too. When you can figure things out as easily as I did, it really doesn't make the movie worth your time.

The acting wasn't to bad, but it was still bad. However, Kristen Bell is pretty hot. So the movie gets some points there. I don't recall a scene where she looked bad. They really made her look amazing.

So, if you probably couldn't tell, I didn't like this flick. I found myself bored and waiting for the predictable conclusion to arrive. Mainly because I had to go to the bathroom. I am giving this movie a one night stand out of a cherry pit (2 out of 5).

Birddogger out.
