One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

This film was much better than I expected it to be, but to be fair I wasn't expecting too much, particularly when 'Happy Madison' appeared on the screen. However, it was really funny in places and even had thought-provoking sad moments too. It is your typical American concept of 'boys like bimbos' but this has a cute little twist, which I really liked. I just wish they would stop with the whole 'girls aren't sexy with glasses on' rubbish. Anyway, definitely worth a watch for silly, cheesy and sometimes very obvious laughs, just don't concentrate too much on Beverly D'Angelo's face, something strange has happened to it, and it it looks a little like melted plastic...such a shame. I gave it 8 stars because Emma Stone, as always is fantastic. She's believable in any role that she plays. Anna Faris is her usual funny goofy self, a part that she convincingly plays to a tee, and Kendra is in it. Everyone loves a bit of Kendra!

In the same line of many young adult/ university movies, The House Bunny was able to be inventive and innovative introducing a little bit of the Playboy universe into the plot. However, we have a typical fight cliché between beauty and brains, and all the prejudice around that compel the characters to discover that the two characteristics are relevant and indissociable. I was glad to see Anna Faris growing out of the scary movie series, and also pleased to see Emma Stone established as an even more excellent comedy actress. I think she captivate the lights for herself throughout the film. Beyond that Faris did a great job portraying the confused beautiful blond stereotype that we see in comedies. But as a cinema lover I hope to see her in major demanding roles. Above all, the story and the scenes are fluid, light and fun for a relaxing afternoon with friends.

"The House Bunny" owes a lot to several movies of the "naive wins out" type. The best of these is "Being There," the least is "Dumb and Dumber." The main character is guileless and often childlike, but not stupid. Anna Faris as "The House Bunny" portrays my favorite variation on this theme...the trusting romantic who lives simply but understands complicated. And she does so very, very well.Faris is a natural in this type of role, her particular form of charisma is of the wide-eyed woman/child. If you've ever seen a Marion Davies' movie, you've seen the origin of this character. Alyson Hannigan did a brilliant turn on this role as Michelle Flaherty in "American Pie". And Anna Faris' Shelly Darlingson is another great interpretation of the type. Shelly is all about rainbows and unicorns, but she understands thunderstorms and glue factories, and Faris makes the existence and success of Shelly believable. That said, the main plot of "The House Bunny" is outrageously unbelievable. But its "that kind" of comedy, hyperbolic and over-the-top. I would never recommend this movie for its depth of story, but Faris' performance, with the bonus of early Emma Stone, makes "The House Bunny" a movie that delivers smiles and cheers.

The House Bunny should pleasantly surprise you. It saves itself from being mediocrity with an invigorating sense of humor. Not relying on too many strict movie-picture components, it cares mostly about having a little fun. It's a cultural splash, widely agreed upon as being pleasing. The House Bunny has very vibrant visuals. What I am saying is that The House Bunny is good and funny, and Anna Faris is hot, hot in it. The scantily clad Faris is pretty good at playing a ditsy, flirty Playboy bunny. Anna is so hot and so funny. Emma Stone comes to age in 1 of her first, renowned roles. Emma is clearly cute and she's so legitimately funny. Sooo funny. They could not have cast 3 better girls for the friends than Kat Dennings, Katharine McPhee and Rumer Willis, seriously, and I hope to see more of Rumer in the years to come. Colin Hanks is fine for the viewing, but I would have liked a better choice for the part. He's no Tom Hanks, haha, just kidding. Beverly D'Angelo adds her authority to the mix. The House Bunny has a couple of strong moments I love. When the girls get their makeover and you first see them walking through campus, I think my jaw dropped to the floor, and at the end of the Aztec party when they're all dancing to "Shut Up and Let Me Go", whoa. The songs in those 2 scenes are critical to them being so good. Also, at the very beginning of the Aztec party when Anna Faris is up on the balcony shake, shaking it, she reminds me of Gandalf from LOTR:ROTK when the White Wizard stands high up upon the White City's terrace with Pippin as they survey the Dark Lord's massive army. No kidding! I really liked The House Bunny and it's easily rewatchable. It's appropriate for teenage girls as long as you can forgive some sexiness steered towards the boys.
