Totally Blonde

Krista Allen and her smoking Hot Bod, Funnyman Colin Mockery's brilliant adlib'n and Michael Buble's Great voice all aid in making this light hearted, good hearted PG-13 Sexy comedy work. Blondes do have more fun, they are lusted after more (in the USA) and they get laid more. This film explores all that and a bag of BB-q chips. Of course if all you want to do is see Krista Allen is sexy outfits (inc a thong) than you MUST rent this film. IF you want to hear great ORIGINAL songs sung by M. Buble that you MUST rent this film. and of course if you want to see Krista Allen is sexy outfits (inc a thong) than you MUST rent this film. (did I mention that already??) Wow SHE IS HOT AND FUNNY, the kind of girl you take home and laugh you ass off as she lets you slap hers!! 8 out of 10 I LOVE KRISTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought that this flick was pretty funny, although it was filled to the brim with all kinds of jokes about blondes. I honestly think that Krista Allen is gorgeous with blonde hair, and I'll say that one of the funniest parts of the whole movie was the beginning (the Blonde school). I thought that Charlene Tilton's brief scene in the movie was really funny, especially when she got to the part about "Y'all go ahead and be dumb!" and so on. What really cracked me up about Charlene is her doing a Southern accent (I must add that she's really good at it because many women I've met here in the South talk very much like that, but I've met a few who talk rather differently). However, it seems that the rest of the movie went downhill after the first part. I think it's really sad when a movie's first part is funnier than the rest of it because it makes a person feel like he/she has wasted the rest of the time that the movie lasts. All in all, it's a rather amusing movie if blonde jokes and parody flicks are your thing.

For those who enjoy only the parts of the movie in which Michael Buble sings, there is a DVD out there containing only those scenes. It's called "Totally Buble" and is a companion to a CD of the same name. Both have been denounced by Buble and his management, but IMHO the songs are not as bad as they let on. There are seven songs/scenes on the DVD but they're very short (That's How it Goes, Peroxide Swing, Me & Mrs. You, Love and First Sight, Anyone to Love, Guess I'm Falling For You, Tell Him He's Yours). But if you can find it in a bargain bin for a couple of bucks, as I did, it may be worth picking up. (At such a price I doubt the producers will get any money from it, so you needn't worry about supporting their actions against the artist's own wishes - besides, it's your money.)

BTW, here are Michael's own words concerning the Totally Buble CD and DVD, from his fan site:

"'Totally Buble' is not an album that I wanted to be released. They were songs I recorded for a film called "Totally Blonde" many years ago before I was signed to 143/Reprise Records. The decision to release it as an album was made by the film's producer, and I had no control over stopping him. It is important for everyone to know, that I only want to release quality music to my fans by offering my best work and I sincerely apologize if you purchased this album."

"You've heard from me in the past regarding my thoughts on the "Totally Buble" not being a true representation of what I do. I have now been told of a DVD that is out in the market with the same name and art work. I feel the same way about this DVD. The old expression 'Buyer Beware' has never been more appropriate. Thanks everyone."

Alright, the only reason I watched this was Krista Allen otherwise I was expecting a horrible movie and it was pretty bad. Allen looks hot but I prefer her non-blonde look and her dress sense in 'Totally Blonde' was awful. I'll start with the good points of the movie. It features some very nice solo numbers by Michael Bublé. The chemistry between Bublé and Allen isn't lacking either. For a débutant, Bublé is okay but at times he's a bit too weepy. Krita Allen grossly overacts with the exception of a very few scenes and sadly, she doesn't go nude in this one. Maeve Quinlan is decent and the rest of the cast is unbearable. The atrocious writing is extremely shoddy and even amateurs can do a better job. I hope the director has now chosen a different career path more suitable for him because film-making is not for him. He should be banned. This is one hell of a crappy movie with only one or two good points. If you want to watch Krista's beauty, go get her Emmanuelle series but if you want to see her act, then try to catch the last several episodes of 'What About Brian'. For Michael Bublé's singing, his CDs are available. Avoid this junk.

I'm almost embarrassed to be writing a review of this film. It features B-movie/soft-core porn star Krista Allen in a farcical attempt at romantic comedy. The only highlight is the Sinatra-like singing of Michael Bublé, the male lead. His acting is very bad, but his singing is good. The acting of Allen is painful to watch, and I continually felt pity for her. The other characters don't do any better.

The script is atrocious, the interior sets look over-lit and low budget (especially the club), the photography is mediocre, the narrative flow is ridiculously compressed, there's no building on the theme of a woman changing her appearance to exploit a male preference (in fact, almost no comment on it at all), and Allen's character's behavior is so completely juvenile and immature that she becomes an obnoxious stereotype of the oblivious woman. This display erased any sympathy I might have otherwise felt for the character. Obvious attempts at humor were almost universally unfunny, and the soundtrack in many cases unsuccessfully tried to be jazzy (aside from Bublé's songs). The trite message of "Follow your heart" as the core of the film's plot had me rolling my eyes on multiple occasions.

I am convinced that Andrew Van Slee lacks any real talent whatsoever (how many readers are saying "Duh!"?), having now seen three of his films (I won't bother with any more of them). There are so many truly great romantic comedies available that no time at all should be wasted on this one (instead, run right out and rent "It Happened One Night").
