You’d think that living
with four models—who are constantly dressed in evening gowns and are always surrounded by
rich guys who will buy them anything just for a chance to be in the same room—would be a
bit… disconcerting. But Amanda Pierce (Monica Potter) doesn’t mind. All she wants is to
move on with her life, forget about men (one of whom she just caught cheating on her),
and throw herself into her work (restoring paintings at the Met).
Things
change, however, when she meets Jim (Freddie Prinze, Jr.), the gorgeous fashion exec who
lives in the next building. Amanda and her roommates spend hours spying on him—watching
as he baby-sits, buys candy from schoolgirls, and does chin-ups—until they decide to get
Amanda closer to him by crashing a party at his place.
Amanda finally gets
Jim’s attention—and gets him to ask her out. But after she returns home, she sees what
looks like a murder—one that Jim committed in his apartment. So before going on a date
with a killer, Amanda—along with her evening-gown-clad roommates—go
undercover.
Head Over Heels is definitely high on my Guilty
Pleasure scale. It’s a cheesy, sappy, goofy movie filled with clichés and anorexic
supermodels doing undercover surveillance in heels, and I loved it. In fact, I was
watching it alone, and it still made me laugh out loud. It’s a good thing I got a
five-night rental—that meant I was able to watch it once or twice more before returning
it.
