Head Over Heels is being blasted by critics as a huge mess. The plot and jokes are idiotic, while the toilet humor is gratuitous and more gross than funny.

Movie Info

If you think you've seen a man killing someone, does that mean you shouldn't be dating him? This and other questions about modern relationships are explored in this offbeat romantic comedy. Amanda Pierce (Monica Potter) has found a great job (restoring paintings for the Metropolitan Museum of Art) and a great place to live: a spacious East Side apartment that she shares with four successful models, played by Ivana Milicevic, Shalom Harlow, Sarah O'Hare, and Tomiko Fraser. Amanda is still in the

The best jokes are on the models and the men who pursue them, and Shalom Harlow, Ivana Milicevic, Sarah O'Hare, and Tomiko Fraser -- the real models who play Potter's roommates --are very good sports.

Head Over Heels may bear some superficial resemblance to a movie, but don't be fooled -- it's really just a marketing strategy, a loose assemblage of components each pitched to a particular demographic.

[Teens] deserve decent movies, but instead they get glop like Head Over Heels. There ought to be a law.

Kerplunkingly unfunny and -- despite Potter's Julia Roberts-ish smile and ditz shtick -- charmless.

All that's lacking is anything remotely resembling wit or style.

The screenwriters' desperation is palpable at times.

Head Over Heels isn't exactly terrible - it's just completely uninspired.

The girls decide to conduct their own wacky investigation, with consequences that are at best negligibly humorous.

When your script calls for a suave, mysterious leading man and the best you can come up with is the bubble-bright Freddie Prinze, Jr., it's time to do some serious recasting.

Between the ridiculous stereotypes and "stupid model" jokes, the comedy in Head Over Heels stands up. The romance, on the other hand, simmers but never really boils.

This is no Oscar nominee, but it's a sweet, funny, refreshingly different movie about models, a woman & the guy she loves, who may or may not be a murderer. Hee!

When anyone's not delivering the groaners that pass for zingers, someone bumps into something and has a 'hilarious' pratfall.

For all their charm, even they can't salvage the clunker outfitting them.

A bright and breezy start goes nowhere in this ultimately miserable attempt to mix murder, mirth and romance.

Lo más recomendable es que la tomen como una de las últimas opciones o que de plano vayan y renten algún buen video.
