Rating:
3.5 out of 5 stars
I really enjoyed this movie because it was well written with lots of jokes and it had Jennifer Lopez. This is an actress who knows the type of movie she does well in--- romantic comedies!! Maid in Manhattan is one of my favorite movies to watch when I am upset because it gives me hope there is love out there for me. She is a wonderful actress but she doesn't stray too far from romantic comedies which I love!!
The premise of the movie is a woman cannot wait any longer to have a baby so she goes and gets a doctor to help her out. After she had the procedure done she meets her soul mate played by the amazingly good looking Alex O'Loughlin. Honestly why is that guy not any more famous than he is. He is one of the best looking men in Hollywood (if you don't know who is he SEE THIS MOVIE!!!!). They fall in love and then he realizes she is pregnant. The rest of the movie deals with the hysterics of what happens after he realizes.
The reason the rating is not higher for this movie is the ending and other parts are very unrealistic. The reason I love romantic comedies is they seem like they could really happen. A great romantic comedy makes you believe that it could happen to you, even if it is totally unrealistic. Look at Maid in Manhattan--- how many women out there honestly thought they could find a rich good looking man and fall in love!! How about Enchanted!! I for one was looking down sewer drains trying to find a portal to another world, because it seemed to realistic!!
This movie did not seem realistic AFTER the guy found out she was pregnant. Everything before that totally seemed like it could happen (and probably did happen) at some point in the world.
But I definitely think you should rent this for a good date night with your lover or by yourself (like me). Guys will find it hysterical and girls will love to watch the male lead!!
Let me know what you think!
