In Theaters Now : MONTE CARLO (2011)


Official Synopsis : Three graduates fulfill their dreams of vacationing in Paris. They accidentally find themselves in a lavish world, where they live like royalty and experience romance. But at the end of their journey, they discover the true magic of friendship. -- 20th Century Fox

What to Expect : A flimsy comedy aimed at the tween demographic. If you're not a part of that particular target audience (and you're not a girl), it's not really a movie you need to see. Initially Julia Roberts and Nicole Kidman were supposed to star in the lead roles, but the producers wanted to make a movie with a younger cast.

Critical Response : Mixed. While some critics were willing to let it off the hook for being a light comedy for kids, others slammed the movie for being a derivative empty-headed rip-off. 45% fresh on Rottentomatoes.com from 18 positive and 22 negative reviews.

More Details : 

  • Starring : Selena Gomez, Leighton Meester, Katie Cassidy, Cory Monteith, Andie Macdowell.

  • Director : Thomas Bezucha.

  • Screenplay : Thomas Bezucha, April Blair, Maria Maggenti, based on a novel by Jules Bass.

  • Running Time : 109 min.

  • Rating : PG for brief mild language.
