I saw this movie last night. I will just say it's cute. Not good or bad, just cute.
Ashton Kutcher would seem like the perfect guy for the role, being a rising "star" ("Simon is a rising star") and all, and while he did well I kept thinking the movie needed:
A- a stronger actor to play Simon Green, someone like a Scott Speedman or a Josh Hartnett.
B- ditch the crying and made up drama and head for the full time comedy. A Jason Biggs could've done the job, or a younger Owen Wilson.
I mean, the movie is a "comedy" but then again it isn't.
BTW, I HATED the last 5 minutes of the movie. Far fetched and needlessly cheesy. "Cue in the magic", gag me.
