Python Hyena Head Over Heels (2001): Dir: Mark Waters / Cast: Monica Potter, Freddie Prinze Jr., Shalom Harlow, Sarah O'Hare, Tomiko Fraser: Exaggerated mess about wrong impressions and curiosity that leads to trouble. Monica Potter preserves portraits and lives with four brainless supermodels and they believe that Freddie Prinze Jr. murdered someone in the apartment across the way. She goes undercover with the brainless supermodels to find out whether this seemingly sweet guy is a killer. Mark Waters directs this crap half-heartedly and the reference to the great Alfred Hitchcock masterpiece Rear Window is obvious but the difference is that the Hitchcock film is engaging and suspenseful while the Waters film is merely stupid. Then we are given the Russian mob plus toilet humour complete with sound effects. Potter plays an idiot with weak knees who is constantly saying the wrong thing. She is featured in a scene where a dog jumps her from behind and appears to be humping her. This cannot be her best moment. This also ranks in a long list of terrible performances by Prinze Jr. whose identity will surprise no one. The four supermodels are also a bad distraction of complete overacting. None of them are given an ounce of personality and they greatly subtract any credibility every time they open their mouths. Absurd comedy should be tossed head over heels into the back of a garbage truck. Score: 2 / 10

fedor8 Yet another awful Freddie Prinze Jr. vehicle. The "humour" is so bad that it is at times embarrassing to watch the movie. The script is utterly awful, employing the kind of "gags" that are on a "Police Academy 6" level. And as if that weren't bad enough, a lot of the "gags" are given to the four fashion-models, who are the worst kind of actresses one can imagine: it is their eagerness to comedically please that is the source of most of the embarrassment. Another problem is the casting of Potter, who simply doesn't look that much different from the four models she moves in with - which sort of defeats the whole purpose: her character is supposed to be different in mind AND body from those four, so the casting of a non-thin and sufficiently shorter actress would have made more sense. But sense wasn't what the makers of this malarkey cared for.

mybnanny I liked the characters as well as the actors. It was a fun movie, I thought it far fetched in a lot of areas but the actors I think made the movie fun with with their portrayals.Monica Potter is a great alternative to the love story objects of affection, such as Ashley Judd,(who I do Love) and Julia Roberts. They are approaching the age where they can take on more intense roles, and then who does that leave us? Brittany Speers or Lyndsay Lohan, "YUCK" to them both. I hope to see more of her in future films. I loved the song at the end,"Roller Coaster" but I can't find it anywhere, could some one please post where I can get the sound track or the album with that song.

Amy Adler Amanda (Monica Potter) is an art restorer for a New York City museum. Needing a new apartment with a miniscule rent, she finds a tiny room. It is located in the spacious apartment of four supermodels! Amanda gets the large closet. When a good-looking man (Freddie Prinze, Jr.) moves into an apartment nearby, the models encourage Amanda to express an interest in him. However, Mandy thinks she sees him commit a murder! What's happening?Monica Potter is so lovely and charming in this film, one wishes she had a better vehicle. The plot is okay but takes a long time to develop. However, the costumes and sets are great and Prinze and the models make wonderful eye candy, too. One could do worse than spend an afternoon with all of these attractive folks. Recommended as an alternate choice for those who have laughed and cried through two dozen other romantic comedies with mild suspense.
