| This film is a Risky Business for the new millennium starring 24's beautiful Elisha Cuthbert as Danielle, a former porn star. Our hero is 18-year-old Matthew Kidman (Emile Hirsch), a straight arrow over-achiever who lives a dull life…that is until he meets the girl next door. This is a comedy about opposite worlds, about a boy with a future and a girl with a past. Director Luke Greenfield brings a combustible mix of humor, risk and love to the story. Other stars include: Timothy Olyphant James Remar, Chris Marquette and Paul Dano. Although it seems a little kinky at times, the film has a good heart and holds your interest. Also there are some very funny bits, much better than the dumb and dumber humor so often seen in these college flicks. |
