Pretty Woman description Like a pumpkin that transforms into a carriage, some very shrewd casting (and the charisma of Julia Roberts, in particular) morphed this story of a Hollywood whore into a Disneyfied Cinderella story--and a mainstream megahit. This is the movie that made Roberts a star; the charm of her personality helping tremendously to carry viewers over the rough spots in the script (which was originally a cynical tale about prostitution called 3000--after the amount of money Richard Gere's character pays the prostitute to stay with him for the week). Gere is the silver-haired Wall Street knight who sweeps streetwalker Roberts into a fantasy world of room service at the Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel and fashion boutique shopping on Rodeo Drive. The supporting cast is also appealing, including Laura San Giacomo as Roberts's hooker pal, Hector Elizondo as the hotel manager, Jason Alexander, Ralph Bellamy, and Hank Azaria. Now, is this something you want your sons and daughters to see? That's entirely up to you. --Jim Emerson |

| I am such a fan of the ORIGINAL Pretty Woman film. In fact, I wore out my VHS copy, which I now wish I had held onto. This is a completely runied version of that film. It is like they took two totally different movies and blended them into one. When the added scenes show up, you know it because they just don't fit and pull you right out of the story. Not sure why they didn't just give the viewers a choice of watching the original or the new version, but they don't. It would actually be fun to see these deleted scenes if they were simply an extra bonus feature. I resent having garbage that was once on the cutting room floor now shoved down my throat. | |
