Gail Pennington St. Louis Post-Dispatch The result is an adorable and faithful update that spoofs politics, television and Boston while making underlying points about education, class conflict and being oneself. Rated: 3/4 Aug 14, 2013 Full Review Brian Lowry Variety A pleasant enough diversion for a few light-hearted hours, and with a little bit of luck, will help point Hallmark back toward sending the very best. Aug 14, 2013 Full Review Michael E. Grost Classic Film and Television Interesting satire comments on politics, education and even cognitive science. Dec 4, 2016 Full Review David N.

Audience Member This is a modern day retellingof George Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion that changes the genders of the main characters. It took me way too long to figure that out. It is pretty cute and Julia Stiles is delightful. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member I adore Julia Stiles, and this was a cute story, but the actor playing in the lead role was very annoying. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/28/23 Full Review Audience Member It was a good Romcom Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member der. tired of movies where the good guys lose at the end. leaves you unfulfilled, like a meal of styrofoam. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member What a fantastic story. The cast was adorable and the ending was perfectly sappy. All fans of romantic comedies should check this one out. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member A nice twist on My Fair Lady Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
