Movie Review: Accidental Love (2015)

Accidental Love is a romance comedy with much more comedy than romance. You could even say it is a comedy movie, with just a little sprinkle of romance on it. As a comedy, it is quite funny, but as a romance movie, it is just okay.

Movie Review: My Boss's Daughter (2003)

My Boss's Daughter is a very funny romance comedy. I have read a lot of bad reviews on this movie, but I guess most people just don't get it. This is not a serious RomCom, and shouldn't be judge based on normal standards of a romance movie. It is more like a spoof movie. I also like how they try to downplay racism by making jokes of ethnicity stereotypes.

Movie Review: I Love You, Beth Cooper (2009)

I Love You, Beth Cooper is a romance comedy, with a little bit more comedy than romance. But in all the crazy, rib cracking, high tempo comedy, the love story lies within.






A High school graduate, Denis Cooverman (played by Paul Rust) followed his friend's advise to announce his love for Beth Cooper (Hayden Panettiere's character), a head cheerleader at his school, during his valedictorian speech. He was surprised when the girl got attracted to him because of that one move. It shocked him when she showed up at his house for a party he invited her for later that day, but things got really crazy when her hyper active drug addicted boyfriend showed up on his doorstep, ready to clubber him to death with two of his other macho friends. From then on, it is one roller-coaster ride, till things simmered down a bit in the last 15 minutes of the movie.
