Save your money for something good and enjoyable

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

I have read some reviews here, and many people think this is a conventional romantic comedy, it really is not. It is about not being truly happy with your life, and when you discover what you want, being willing to make the sacrifices necessary to keep it. One of these is overcoming your fears. This is what Alex Whitman (Matthew Perry), and photographer Isabel Fuentes (Salma Hayak), have to do throughout the film. One big issue is the families involved: Alex's are blue blood WASP types, and Isabel's are very traditional Mexicans. It is also Alex's story (far more than Isabel's), and how he really does not like his life, he just does not know any other way. One thing he does, is instead of joining the Country Club set, is studying architecture, at Yale. While going to Yale, is expected for someone like him, taking a difficult major outside the family business was not. So was marrying Cathy Stewart (Suzanne Snyder), who to quote Alex "Was pursuing me since the 3rd Grade." Since the Stewart's were good friends of his parent's (John Bennett Perry (Matthew's real life father) and Jill Clayburgh), it would have been the easy thing simply to marry her, and please them (Although he finds it difficult to stand up to them (Which will create problems later on)). Spoilers Ahead: He and his best friend Jeff (Jon Tenny) are transferred From the New York office where they work, to Las Vegas for a construction project. He then meets Isabel in a Mexican Restaurant and lets her cut the line to the bathroom, and from there they have a one night stand, and then she disappears. Month's later, she shows up pregnant, and he offers to meet her family, so she would not be shamed into being pregnant with someone they never met. When he does, he really likes the big family environment and comments on how his family never eats together. He then offers to any marry her, and he is happy with her, until his parent's show up, and he cannot admit to them Isabel is his wife. From there, the relationship starts to sour, because of family issues, mistrust, lies (She told him she had an miscarriage), and their fears. In one scene Isabel goes to Mexico to visit her great grandmother, and admitted how much she loved Alex, but was afraid of being hurt. They finally agree to get a divorce, but Alex (Now back in New York) is miserable. He runs into a Priest, who tells him "There are signs out there." Pictures of The Grand Canyon, a chihuahua, and a little girl named Isabel, remind him of her, and he does not want the divorce (Although time is running out). So he goes down to Mexico (Where he found out she was), and takes a cheap plane from Mexico City, an old bus, and a mule, to get to her great grandmother's only to find out she was heading back to Las Vegas (He had no idea it was to bear his child, since he did not speak or understand Spanish). He gets there first, and is standing on Hoover Dam, and a huge rainstorm happens and he gets drenched. Finally she is driving and sees him and almost causes an accident. She is mad at him (And more at herself because she lost hope (She broke up with a previous boy friend because a necklace broke which to her was a sign)), then he finds out she is still pregnant, and they both admit they were lying and afraid. Then her water broke, and she is going to have the baby right on the Dam. What really impresses her, is the fact that he would travel all the way to Mexico just for her (He had no idea she was still pregnant). When the baby comes (A girl), Isabel asks "Do you think she will like living in New York City?' Alex says "Not as much as camping in the desert." A key point, because one of Isabel's brother's explained, that her life is here, and she would not be happy anywhere else. Then Isabel said "With a few Gray's Papaya hot dogs (A famous New York hot dog)." Alex then says, "Oh no." Isabel says:' What?" Alex says "We're divorced." Of course, that will change when they are married again (This time in a traditional way at The Grand Canyon (Unlike the first time by an Elvis impersonator and without the families there)). I am a huge Salma fan, and she is at her best here. But this is Perry's film, and his scenes are the funny ones: Getting cactus needles in his behind after going camping and landing in a pit of rattlesnakes, and the rain scene. But he is also the one who is willing to do whatever is necessary to have Isabel, and that means leaving his prior life behind, and not only accepting but embracing hers. This is one of my favorite films of all-time. 10/10 stars.

each time that I watch it. There's some charm about it that draws me in. I love the chemistry between the actors. I like the music and the scenes are heartfelt, but also make you laugh at times. I think the definition of a good movie is when it evokes an emotion from you then transform that emotion in a split second. I will be crying from happiness then a joke will pop up or something and in the next second I'm laughing.So I recommend anyone to rent this movie if they are looking for a perfect romantic comedy. I guess this movie is like my romantic guilty pleasure. I watch it all the time and always will.

Boy {Matthew Perry} meets Girl {Salma Hayek} in a queue for the toilet in a club. Cue both people from different ethnicities ending up in bed together doing something that neither of them have done before. Cue three months later and Girl tuns up in Boys life announcing she's pregnant. Cue emotions pulled apart, a hasty marriage, family strife and many stumbling blocks getting in the way of potential true love.Sound familiar? Not surprisingly this retread of a formula that is as old as the hills has very little originality. The script is desperately dull, the ending is exactly what the world expects and the leads have zero chemistry. That only Perry and Hayek are "names" in the film speaks volumes one feels. You get the sense that what budget there was went on getting the sexy Hayek and Perry {riding on the crest of his Friends wave} to appear. Little flashes of comedy do from time to time surface, and, yes, those who like a cheery cup of the love froth with their rom-coms will feel fuzzy come the end. But really it's a poorly constructed and executed picture, the type that unfortunately seems to come out on a yearly basis. You have been warned, stick with a Cary Grant movie instead. 3/10

"Fools Rush In" is not funny, not romantic, not cute, it has a slight heart, but that's about it. Not one joke in the film worked, and even if it was a mediocre one (which is the best they had), it still was terrible because of Matthew Perry's awful timing and the overall bad acting.Alex Whitman (Matthew Perry) is a semi-successful business man, and Isabel (Salma Hayek) is fresh out of Mexico in Las Vegas trying to make a name for herself as an artist. These two have a one night stand, and *surprise, surprise* Isabel becomes pregnant. The plot, which consists of dozens of bad jokes and clichés, has Alex and Isabel becoming a couple and how their different cultures collide. This was a comedy, but I did not laugh once. The only person to have joke lines was Matthew Perry, and he was not funny in the least. Any time the movie was trying to be romantic, it become extremely corny. The climax of the movie ended in the rain (despite that it didn't show any signs of rain the rest of the film). One bad cliché after another corny joke, with bad acting thrown in cannot make a good movie.My rating: * out of ****. 113 mins. PG-13 for language and sexuality.
