This is just a cute popcorn romance movie that is unlike any other comedy/romance movie i've seen before. Based on the book "The Boyfriend School."
Guttenburg looks handsome, Gertz is charming as the initially shallow object of affection. Shelly Long steals every scene she's in with an overly cheery, matter o' fact personality.
It's a simple story, but it works. Guttenburg plays hapless Gus, who falls in love with Emily (Gertz.) Realizing that she would never go for him in his present state (he's recently won his bout with Hodgkins) he transforms himself into romance novelesque "Lobo" the mysterious hunky foreign stranger (with the assistance of his romance novel author sister Lizzie (Long.) In an effort to win her heart.
I won't ruin the movie for those of you who haven't seen it, it's fun, refreshing and a cute little movie with memorable scenes, characters and an original premise.
