"You and I are such similar creatures, Vivian. We both screw people for money." Richard Gere has always played a rich snob really well but I can't help shake the feeling that Julia Roberts was shockingly miscast in this role. She does well but the role just doesn't fit. Oh well, can't win them all.

**Excellent performance and an experienced director create a romantic comedy classic full of charm and authenticity.** No wonder it’s a classic! Julia Roberts and Richard Gere masterfully portray their characters full of nuance, sincerity, and emotional pain. Pretty Woman has a plot told many times over. Yet, with the experience of director Garry Marshall and these performances, the story feels...

Maybe help him out with a few formally social occasions where she can smile and ...

Pretty average movie. The dialog is maybe a bit ahead of its' time, in terms of toxicity and progressivism, but that's a few lines. Feels really sappy and cardboard. The cast has great charisma, but they can't help playing cardboard in such a simple play. I'm not sure how exactly modern fairytales are made good, but most I've seen are better than this. 6/10

"Pretty Woman" is a splendid film which possesses a surprisingly hard and sobering edge beneath the frothy comedy veneer when it needs to and this is illustrated when Stuckey attempts to make good on the idea of calling upon Vivian's services and this almost results in her being raped. However, aside from the film being embroidered with such disturbing threads of darkness as these stemming from Vi...
