Fools Rush In

I feel that I am drown in Mathew's gorgeous eyes! These two leading actors are so beautiful! The plot is okay. Only fools rush in, but I can not help but fall in love with you.

'Fools Rush In' is an entertaining movie although you can pretty much guess every next line in the script. The story is about the Mexican Isabel (Salma Hayek) who has a one night stand with Alex (Matthew Perry). She leaves in the morning to show up three months later telling him she is pregnant. Of course they fall in love and get married and the movie is about to start. They are pretty different so a lot of problems come on their way. From the beginning you know how it is going to end and unfortunately the way to that ending is a little predictable as well. The performances make this movie a little better. Matthew Perry, who always is a little like his character in 'Friends', has some funny things although sometimes it seems he is trying to hard. Salma Hayek is very loveable and really makes something of her character. In the end I had a pretty good time watching the movie but I have to admit it was not very good.

I just caught this on HBO, and before watching it I figured I'd probably switch to something else after a few minutes since I was expecting a bad movie. Wrong! It was actually a lot of fun to watch -- not deep or even unpredictable, but it had a quality that made me want to keep watching, and happy afterwards that I had. Both of the stars, and particularly Hayak, played their parts well, and the result was a charming love story that's easily worth an hour and a half of your life.

This film shows the differences between different cultures mixing and breeding. Actually, they use all the stereo types they can think of. Salma Hayek and Matthew Perry give good performances. I don't get how "The white people are melting" is a racist comment? I figured the guy was making fun of himself for turning red. I didn't like the fact that he kept his getting married from his parents because he was ashamed of his wife. She was hot and I would prance her around every chance I got. Better than most crap movies being put out. 5/10

Guys will forgive or ignore anything in a woman as long as she has a great body that will make his friends go, "Du-u-u-de!" Yeah - this was 25 years ago but I don't think much has changed. Certainly not in Hollywood entertainment.

FOOLS RUSH IN (1997) **1/2 Matthew Perry, Salma Hayek, Jon Tenney, Siobhan Fallon, Jill Clayburgh. Amiable romantic comedy about a one night stand between the charming Perry and luscious Hayek that results in pregnancy, marriage and love (not necessarily in that order) with some wonderfully funny and surprisingly touching moments between the principals.
