  Review by Willow Maclay ★★★½

  This is Saoirse Ronan's first acting role of consequence and at one point she tells her mother (Michelle Pfeiffer) that she wants to be called "Drew" from now on. Her mom asks, "what's wrong with Izzie?"

  "Nothing. I just want to be called Drew now."

  The ultimate foreshadowing for Lady Bird.

  Review by demi adejuyigbe 8

  For ages, I had only seen the scene of Paul Rudd dancing to Will Smith’s “Switch” and placed my own mental context around it that made it seem very charming. Truth is, in the actual film it’s kind of dreadful. Just another moment in a long run of moments that make a man as endearing as Paul Rudd feel so completely grating and immature that you only get increasingly annoyed and put off by his actions (which is why I guess it was never released theatrically in the US.) Also doesn’t help that the grand message of this movie about the societal insecurities placed on older women is that “young adult women are the enemy.”

  Made all the more worse…

  saoirse reworking ironic by alanis morrisette into a commentary on the harmful beauty standards for women in the media and also including a verse about how much she hates george bush? dare I say iconic

  Review by Dylan van Frankfoort ★★★½ 3

  A movie about Paul Rudd being Paul Rudd (i.e. very hot and funny) with 2(!) blink-182 needle drops? Get out of my dreams and into my DVD player. This was such a delight; I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed Rudd and Lovitz amicably discussing how they're the Kutcher and Willis to Pfeiffer's Moore, while Pfeiffer just looks on aghast at their stupidity. Everyone is so good. Like I said, Rudd is 100% playing himself, as he's wont to do, but that his character is also an actor whose comedy chops threaten his castmates ("What is he doing?? Some kind of Second City stuff??") makes it even more fun. Heckerling has proven time and again that she's a writer-director…

  A lot of the humour is dated, but Michelle Pfeiffer does witchcraft at one point and that's more than enough for me! It's also Saoirse's first role!

  Review by maneleeo ★★½

  You know when a film belongs to the 90's, but for some reason it was done much later than that? This film screams 90's all over the place. Amy Heckerling made "Clueless" in 1995, and the style of that film is scattered throughout "I Could Never Be Your Woman". I remembered sequences that were just like the ones in "Clueless", but like a step backward, not forward. And it had a bit much of "Woody Allen" but it did not favour the film at all. I should have given this film a worse rating...

  But,

  There were things that seemed just right, you know? Somethings were hilarious, other times it had good writing. It's like, everything good was cancelled but…

  Review by hamfruitcake ★★★ 2

  I don't need to be a real man, I'm an actor

  Because Paul Rudd movies are movie comfort food, the quality is questionable but it's Paul freaking Rudd. He does a dance and he gets to kiss Michelle Pfeiffer! The age difference schtick gets old very quick, pun intended, but it's perfectly watchable.

  Oh Lord, the casting in this... It's by far the most entertaining aspect, let me give you a run down real quick, I haven't covered everyone but:
  Tiny Saoirse Ronan is playing Ape Escape!! The memories!
  Yasmin Paige, she grew up so quickly to go be in Submarine...
  Tracey Ullman is Mother Nature and thoroughly enjoying herself
  David Mitchell, he looks deeply uncomfortable
  Sarah Alexander, pull up your trousers girl!
  Graham Norton, sporting frosted tips and being everyone's gay best friend
  Henry Winkler, he's the sweetest
