The alchemy about the two of them is just perfect, they are incredibly funny. The script is fine but they make it great.

If you're having trouble sleeping and are insomniac, try watching this movie. I rarely watch chick flicks (unless forced to the theater by my better half), and I thought with Anna Farris in the lead, I was hoping for some laughs. Do not go in expecting laughs. The movie painfully goes dumber by the minute, until you've lost patience and cant stand it anymore (I'd say sometime around the 30 min mark). I'd practically dare anyone who can sit through this and not come out dumber. Anna Farris fans could stand it for a longer period than I could. She does look glamorous in this one. You might have to keep the plot written in a piece of paper to remember it. The movie just falls off in between and it seems like the writer was struggling to come up with enough punch lines. I would give this a rating of, well 1 out of 10.

It has its moments, but is overall a really really stupid movie, what was the director thinking....

This film is about an playboy bunny transforming a failing sorority house, thereby changing the lives of her new best friends. Just like the amazing female led fluffy classic "Legally Blonde", "The House Bunny" follows the same formula of having a dumb blonde girl in sexy pink outfits saving the day. Anna Faris is adorable and cute as she always is, and she is rightly the centre of attention in the film. Her lines are laugh out loud funny. The "mahi-mahi" line makes me laugh so hard that it hurts. The Aztec party looks so much fun, it gives off the right vibe and makes me happy. Together with the sun, fun, music and dancing, "The House Bunny" is such a joy to watch.

Not all movies are Schindler's List. Keep this one saved for a day when it has been long and your brain needs to rest. The House Bunny is probably bordering on sexist but in this world, the dumb good hearted blonde and her misfit cohorts comes out on top over evil Stepford Wives wannabes.And the boys comes out quite dumb here as well. In fact, everyone comes out stupid which means this is a fine day for equality of all sexes. While those who have thought that this movie is too high for their acutely honed sense of humor, they are also the ones who wrote that they "drug" (sic) her husband to watching this. Maybe she did. It's a good funny movie. Watch it. If you're worried about the dollars, it's out on Netflix. You've already paid for it.

Whe I first put in the DVD, I was expecting a crass, carnal, stereotypical film, emphasizing big * and tight butts, with the classic binary decomposition of inner beauty/outer beauty. What I found was much more significant. The writers explored several other themes beside the binary, such as the concept of what "home" is. Shelli never knew what home was, being an abandoned child. She also never had a true mother, and then was put into a position she had no knowledge to draw from. This concept is doubled with the "Wizard of Oz" motif (she is wearing a Dorothy costume leaving the mansion, the casual mention in the photo shoot, "Are you a good witch or a bad witch?"). This all leads to the viewers' understanding of the fact there is no place like home, and that home is where one feels most in place and has a sense of belonging. On top of the brilliant literary components, the film is hilarious. "The eyes are the nipples of the face." HAHA! All in all, a great film.
