Faris is GREAT in this, don't get me wrong, but I can't get past all of the stupid, contradictory messages in this movie. There's a "Just be yourself" moment thrown in there, but then Emma Stone still has to play dumb to get with the guy in the end? Blah. I know it's not meant to be some sort of empowering film, but it still sort of bothered me.Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13471664551639091150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7638298281070675587.post-21834575447698207522010-05-08T14:28:09.955-07:002010-05-08T14:28:09.955-07:00I'll be on the look out for that one, thanks!I'll be on the look out for that one, thanks!Norma Desmondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12185179321818700556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7638298281070675587.post-75802984325267481172010-05-06T07:53:12.342-07:002010-05-06T07:53:12.342-07:00Anna Faris' ability to play dumb is third only...Anna Faris' ability to play dumb is third only to Lisa Kudrow's (she's the best) and Dax Shepard's. Somehow you never believe she's dumb because she gives you the impression she's very smart, she's in on the joke and she's playing you for an idiot. I love that about her.<br /><br />Watch "Smiley Face" for another good Faris movie -- she plays a girl who accidentally eats pot brownies. Genius.M.
