Head Over Heels (2001)

EW's GRADE
F

Details Release Date: Jul 31, 2001; Movie Rated: PG-13; Genres: Comedy, Romance; With: Monica Potter and Freddie Prinze Jr.; Distributor: Universal

This very well may be the least romantic, least comedic romantic comedy in recent memory. Potter -- who's coasted long enough on her resemblance to Julia Roberts -- plays Amanda, a single girl who moves in with four supermodels (the actresses, inexplicably, have a tough time playing dumb). The gangly gaggle of girls make Amanda over so she can win Jim Winston (Prinze), the next-door neighbor who may or may not be a cold-blooded murderer. Folks, Freddie is the finest actor of this bland bunch, and if that doesn't scare you off, nothing will.
