Monica Potter, Freddie Prinze Jr., Shalom Harlow

Blessed with a cut-rate deal on a luxurious Eastside apartment, but stuck with four super-thin, super-fabulous roomates, Amanda doesn't know whether to thank her lucky stars or curse her lot in life...( read more  read more... ). Never content to let the ordinary exist, the models immediately enlist Amanda as their experiment in makeover magic, transforming her from just fine to fierce and training her in the fine arts of attitude, accessories and avoidance of paying the cocktail tab. Things really begin to look up as Amanda falls for Jim Winston, the charmer in the building next door, and Jim falls for Amanda right back. He seems to be the fulfillment of Amanda's unanswered prayers... until one night when the girls spy him committing what happens to be a cold-blooded crime. Amanda's life begins to dizzily unspool as she and her four loopy roomies take to the streets of Manhattan as second-rate sleuths to solve the naughty business next door, staying one step ahead of trouble and in step with the latest style.

Critic Reviews


February 16, 2001
Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer

Kerplunkingly unfunny and -- despite Potter's Julia Roberts-ish smile and ditz shtick -- charmless.

February 2, 2001
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle

Light stuff, the cinematic equivalent of the airy wax paper that separates cold cuts on a delicatessen scale. full review

February 2, 2001
A.O. Scott, The New York Times

Head Over Heels, like Mr. Prinze's other movies, exists in a realm beyond sense, and it induces in the viewer a trancelike state, leaving the mind free to ponder the mysteries of the universe. full review

February 2, 2001
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

It's as if the production was a fight to the death between bright people with a sense of humor, and cretins who think the audience is as stupid as they are. full review
