The Taming of the Shrewd

I know that we get annoyed or maybe even used to a certain type of movie. Like this one - where we know the formula and there is not much that will surprise us in the overall scheme of things. Yet that aside (and some little twists or surprises that do still exist), what really helps this are the two main actors. Who take their roles and fill them with charisma.

I really dug what I saw here. This is not a masterpiece for sure, but it is a fun little movie. And while it may be a bit more tease than some would like - it still is able to show us things that US movies shy away from. Like nudity for example - most romantic outings from the US are not going down that road, because of the ratings over there.

So if you don't mind (I won't go as far as to call anyone who has issues with a bit of skin prude) that little bit of erotica the movie serves (don't expect too much), than all the teasing throughout the movie will make sense. Also for the characters ... one has been burnt badly, the other one is on a mission .. of course (mission) goals can change ... well not telling you anything new. Funny and light throughout.
