Spencer P. With Julia Roberts and Richard Gere bonding like glue, Pretty Woman is a contemporary fairy tale that has plenty to say about public perceptions of prostitutes, as well as being kind across class distinctions. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/11/25 Full Review Anthony Q. Schmaltzy and predictable, but charming and full of heart thanks to Richard Gere and Julia Roberts. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/10/25 Full Review Rohan H Pretty Woman (1990) is one of those rare romantic comedies that has truly stood the test of time — a sparkling blend of humour, heart, and undeniable chemistry. Directed by Garry Marshall, the film is a modern Cinderella story that brings together two unforgettable performances and a message about love, transformation, and self-worth. Julia Roberts shines as Vivian Ward, a spirited and kind-hearted woman whose charm and honesty light up the screen. Her performance is magnetic — full of warmth, humour, and humanity — and it’s easy to see why it launched her into stardom. She brings depth to a character who could have been a stereotype, instead making Vivian funny, strong, and deeply relatable. Richard Gere is equally captivating as Edward Lewis, the polished businessman who hires Vivian as a companion for a week — only to find himself falling for her genuine nature. The chemistry between Gere and Roberts is effortless, giving the film its heart and magic. The supporting cast adds flavour and comedy throughout, and Garry Marshall’s direction keeps the tone light while still allowing for real emotional moments. The film’s Los Angeles backdrop sparkles with style and glamour, and the now-iconic soundtrack — featuring Roy Orbison’s “Oh, Pretty Woman” — perfectly captures the film’s playful, romantic energy. What makes Pretty Woman special is that beneath its glitz and humour, it’s a story about two people helping each other rediscover who they are. It’s about acceptance, growth, and the idea that everyone deserves love and respect — no matter where they come from. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/31/25 Full Review Charles C If you can completely disengage your brain and avoid the characters (not very likeable) and plot (billionaire buys prostitute as a love story??) then this can be a completely enjoyable movie by just enjoy looking at how pretty Julia Roberts and Richard Gere are. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 09/17/25 Full Review binta s Easy watch. Funny, cute and you watch it smiling at the scenes involving Julia and Richard. One of my favorite Rom coms Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 09/12/25 Full Review Ed . Pretty tail! Uplifting cinematic showcase of female empowerment. Any stepfather would hold up as an example to his three boys Vivian's eschewing of controlled substances. Any mother to her three girls would likewise be heartwarmed by Viv's monogamous focus on a stable, high profile trick. Any middle sister would be green with envy over Vivian's enormously good fortune. Any housekeeper would no longer regret her choice not to have children. Ignoring the obviously distasteful reality of Hollywood's faux plot line, this is an enjoyable example of rooting for the plucky underdog.
