Ele é Minha Garota

David Hallyday might not have made it in the US but he is huge in France. He is dreamy and cool and not a bad actor at all. This movie is funny and full of great 80s nostalgia. A good watch for the weekend.

Here's one that's so bad, you'll spend serious time trying to figure out how anyone would think it's funny. If you're writing a thesis on "how to do it wrong" starting with a bad idea, here's one for you. Otherwise, you're likely to think of asking for your money back.

He's my girl is a very interesting movie with a creative plot.

This movie it is full of laughs and a few songs that you will go on singing for the rest of your life. The suspense in the movie is provided by all of the instances when you think the main character will be discovered to really be a man and the weird love triangles that he/she creates. Take time out to watch this movie. You will instantly fall in love with its light hearted plot and love themes. There is something for people of all ages. This is also one of the earlier works of Jennifer Tilly and TK Carter. You will be able to see that there performances are as good then as they are now.

He' My Girl is yet another one of those role-switching 80s comedies. An aspiring rock stars' manager (Carter) invests his clients money in six hundred entries into a contest whereby the selected winner will win a trip to L.A. for a week. They'll get to meet washed up pop rocker, Simon Sledge. The duo look at the contest as the perfect opportunity to get Brian (the aspiring rocker) recognized since he'll be around all of the industry hot shots. But, the catch is, that the contest requires that the winner bring a date, and the only way Brian's manager will get to go is--you guessed it--by dressing up as a woman.

It's the usual role-switching comedy and follows the same tired story line. The manager is a little too cocky and finds a girlfriend while he's out of disguise. Meanwhile, Brian, too, falls in love. And the two start to find it quite difficult to keep up the charade. The ending was a bit funnier than the rest of the movie, but you've been warned, expect the same old, same old. It even has that peppy 80s intro credits.

But, this comedy is recommended for you if you love performances by TK Carter. If you do, you're in for a real treat since he basically steals the show (what an underrated actor). Other than that, this movie is nothing remotely special.

A coupla posters have slagged this off, but it isn't really that bad. It has obviously been inspired by Hoffman's Tootsie film, and adds a new spin on the genre, if I can call it a genre. TK Carter's pretty funny with his over the top impressions and rubber faced expressions. And, it is refreshing to see some black actors in a love story.

Tasty Tasha!!
