What to know

critics consensus

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. Read critic reviews

Audience Reviews for Head Over Heels

    Trying to hard to make it a successful comedy, the plot was just ridiculous, could be seen as 2 irrelevant movies, toilet humor was over used, acting was really bad, only watch it if you are bored

    Monica Potter (Amanda) plays a woman with a quiet conservative life who has a horrible dating history and is looking for a room to move into. She ends up sharing an enormous flat with four supermodels but one night Amanda and her newly discovered supermodel roommates (who share one brain) spy on their young attractive neighbor Freddie Prinze Jr (Jim) and they think he may have killed a young woman. But that won't stop Amanda and so she begins to stalk him to find out the truth of the situation. Toss in a dog which loves to try to hump Amanda and a topless Freddie Prinze Jr and you have a light hearted romantic comedy that will make you laugh.

    This was actually a very hilarious comedy for me. It was a bit cheesy, but alot of hilarious scenes throughout the movie. Made me laugh especially with Freddie's bathroom scene! lol...Monica Potter and Freddie Prince, Jr. are very cute in this amusing movie. :D I liked it alot.

    It's an average romantic comedy movie and also a farce and a screwball comedy. <i>Monica Potter</i> and <i>Freddie Prinze Jr.</i> had good on-screen chemistry. But, unfortunately for <i>Freddie Prinze Jr.</i>, while he was good, it was the females, in this movie that stole the show. <i>Monica Potter</i> is wonderful, the models are goofy yet so likable. The plot is okay but takes a long time to develop. This movie has a great ending.
