"Pretty Woman" is a 'pretty' cute movie.
The main character is a prostitute named Vivian (Julia Roberts)
who gets picked up on the street corner by a rich, tycoon
businessman (Richard Gere). And they fall in love. Sure.
Despite the fact that this would never happen in real life,
I have to give Roberts and Gere kudos for great performances.
Also, I was particularly fond of a dinner table scene where
Vivian doesn't exactly know how to eat a snail and it winds
up flying through the air. V--room!
In spite of their vast differences, their impossible prostitute-tycoon
romance blossoms.
The ending was totally unrealistic, and a little too "Disney"
for me, with a tying-up-the-loose-ends, everything-is-all-right
flavor, yet this movie was incredibly entertaining, with lots
of humorous scenes.
My rating : 3 stars
Rating: R (but it's "pretty" tame for an R-rated movie)
