I Could Never Be Your Woman (2007)

Hey studio. Are you out of your minds? You released this direct to DVD? ( I read that, anyway) This was a great romantic comedy. Everyone was a standout. Fun and touching. Loved Michelle and Rudd. I'm a little sick of Rudd because of his current vehicles, but he was excellent in this. They made a great, believable couple. The daughter, now in Hanna, is ...what?...can't use great again...fine, great. Took over her part.One of the best films of any kind I've seen this year. And I see many. Found this by accident when I was looking up Hanna on Rotten Tomatoes and this was mentioned. Good find.Thanks for making me laugh..(and tear up a little.)

If you want to laugh and just relax this is the movie for you, its a chick flick but a good one. Michelle is a good actress and Paul Rudd too. They are a nice couple together. I really like the music they play during the movie, some Alanis Morrissette and Greenday. It's interesting the way they present the subject of age difference and the pressure of the movie/ television of actors about being young forever. Aging is natural and everybody aged. The relationship between the daughter and the mother is a funny one, they always laugh together and support each other no matter what happens. In real life, its not always like that but movies exist to entertain us and distract us from our everyday life.

"I Could Never Be Your Woman" is written and directed by Amy Heckerling, she of "Clueless" (1995) fame. Now she has triumphantly returned and is taking on the TV and film industry.This movie is for the young Generation Xers who watched "Clueless" en masse. Now that we have grown up and Heckerling has too, she is skewering the beauty-obsession of Hollywood and its desire to look and be younger.Michelle Pfeiffer stars as the producer of a teen-based TV show, she's 40 and she's a single mom. The main storyline is that she casts Paul Rudd in her show and starts dating him. A romantic comedy with a younger man-older woman relationship. Yes that's been done before, and yes, the standard lame rom-com story isn't great. But that doesn't matter here because it's the right vehicle for all the hilarious Hollywood-bashing jokes.Heckerling is right-on-target with her many jokes, and her audience should appreciate the casting of "Clueless" vets Stacey Dash and Paul Rudd as actors playing high school teenagers. Also stars Jon Lovitz as the ex-husband, and Academy Award nominee Saoirse Ronan as the daughter, plus even more great comedic actors.The right audience (teenagers of the 90s) should thoroughly enjoy "I Could Never Be Your Woman". Anybody frustrated with the beauty-obsession and thin bodies thrown at us from a Hollywood-induced society, will also find themselves laughing all the way through to the end credits.

This movie is by Amy Heckerling who is the one the brought you Clueless Which was another great film. This film had an all star cast and more than solid Directing, Acting, and Script. The only negative is on the studios part which is this movie did not get a decent budget, Not to mention i believe this movie sat on the shelve and the decided that they needed to clean it out. So then they decide to make it exclusive to blockbuster. This movie could have made money for then, it's just a shame. There is one more thing and that is Tracy Ullman. She was great however her part was a little awkward, and off. Other than that it's a great classic.Your Average Movie Guy-Trever
