Jay Mohr, Jennifer Aniston, Kevin Bacon

If you can get past Jennifer Aniston's form-fitting wardrobe in a movie about a woman struggling to advance in her profession, this romantic comedy is a fair match with My Best Friend's Wedding...( read more  read more... ). Both films feature conniving, self-centered heroines who undergo a transformation--Aniston presents a bogus fiancé (Jerry Maguire's Jay Mohr) to impress her advertising agency boss and gradually discovers a mutual attraction with the imposter. Both movies go off in delightfully unpredictable directions. Picture Perfect falls prey to occasional sitcom fluff, but it's a fine showcase for Aniston's comedic and dramatic attributes. Critics were mixed-to-harsh in reviews for this movie, perhaps because it's a bit derivative and poses slight challenge to Aniston, who proved her skill with light comedy as a principal cast member of TV's Friends sitcom. It's clear that Aniston is a fine comedian, and she shows that talent to advantage in Picture Perfect. If you enjoy this movie, you should also check out Aniston's follow-up romantic comedy, The Object of My Affection. --Jeff Shannon

    It was cute, but not great. I love Aniston, Bacon, and Dukakis, but the movie itself was kinda just blah.

    jay mohr was the best here (starting to come across him in a few films lately. proficient actor if nothing else) and jennifer aniston (first time i've seen her in anything other than friends) was good enough in it too. i just can't give it more than a 2 because there was nothing ...( read more)special about it and hollywood churn these type of movies out like they're going out of fashion. unfortunately this is not the case! kevin bacon looks like a tosser

    I liked the part when they were supposed to be breaking-up but apart from that it wasn't good and the concept wasn't really believeable.

    Saddeningly this is the only Quality Jennifer Aniston film. It was alot better than I expected with Touching Romance and Heartbreaking comedy!
    A suprising "Three out of Four" Stars. A Slight Reccomendation.
