Film Review: When In Rome


Kristen Bell....tsk tsk. I guess you just can't escape crud like this fair. Then again, neither can the talented cast ranging from your future-hubby Dex Shepard to Josh Duhamel to Danny DeVitto.

Kristen Bell plays Beth Harper, a single artist who goes to Rome to find love. When she takes coins from a love fountain, she finds many suitors waiting for her. Could one of them be her future love?

I love ensemble casts and this one has a lot of good names (missed you Jon Heder!) but none of them work in a film that seems to miss obvious gags to use and instead uses idiotic slapstick's jokes throughout. The direcotr has shown his sloppiness before in the horrid Daredevil and Ghost Rider...but why should he of all people stoop this low?

Rating: 4.9 out of 10 or D+
