  This is a great romcom that is a classic even till this day! I believe it was one of Roberts major breakthrough films and i think we can see why! Its a lovely romcom that is enjoyable to watch and smile with! Very much worth the watch!

  Julia Roberts before the edge set in, there is a slight ironic innocence in her earlier acting. A nostalgic watch, despite the highly unrealistic storyline and (at the time) it's accused glamourisation of prostitution. Some enjoyable moments to rewatch though and this is a film that does what it's supposed to, it's easy watching, taken with a pinch of salt, with a fairy tale ending.

  Despite the cliché, Pretty Woman is memorable, compounded by great performances from Richard Gere and Julia Roberts. Formulaic, but beloved, Pretty Woman thrives on a perfect dream, perhaps a wild and modern interpretation of Cinderella.

  Cable TV fare. This flick shouldn't be regarded as highly as it sometimes is and is as romantically trite and ideally impossible as it is overrated. But it is entertaining on first watch on TBS. But is it a film to add to one's collection of purchased films? No. This film… More
  Cable TV fare. This flick shouldn't be regarded as highly as it sometimes is and is as romantically trite and ideally impossible as it is overrated. But it is entertaining on first watch on TBS. But is it a film to add to one's collection of purchased films? No. This film isn't quite so pretty after all on second glance.

  It is easy to enjoy this sweet little Cinderella story. Even if completely unrealistic, it is delightful and works very well thanks to the chemistry between the two leads and the delicious dialogue. Also, Roberts puts in a very adorable performance.

  Over the years I've learned that women love 2 movies more than any others. "Dirty Dancing" is always number 1, and then "Pretty Woman" is number 2. I hate to admit it, but I've probably seen this movie just as many times as my personal favorite "Pulp Fiction"(not by choice, but hey a guy's gotta do, what a guy's gotta do). This is the movie that put Julia Roberts on the map, and I'd dare say she's never been better than she was in this. She's charming, funny, sexy, and seems down to earth. Richard Gere is well, Richard Gere. I'm not a big Gere fan, don't know why, but I just don't like him. May be a great person, but as an actor, he just don't do it for me. I hated this movie for so long, but over the years I've learned to appreciate it for what it is. It's the ultimate chick flick and rags to riches movie in one. I would probably never, ever, sit down and watch this alone. But, I've gotta keep my wife happy. When "Pretty Woman" is on, and there's nothing else to do, just bite the bullet and go with it.

  A timeless classic! Richard Gere however ruins this film. They should of picked another lead male role. He seriously cannot act. Julia Roberts carried this film along with the other cast members. The soundtrack is also just as good as the film.

  pretty woman is one of those pictures i've watched for a million of times and could memorize every detail of it, not because i'm particularly a fan of julia roberts or richard gere despite they were really quite good-looking then. i watched them because my sister and my mother were suckers to chick flicks. this picture gave me some idea of how woman should be in their own conceptualization of womanhood, which is something i've always felt quite alienated from. any kind of popular romantic movie is basically a mutant representation of the cinderella formula with contemporary contextuality. super-rich-handsome guy meets a woman who comes from much humbler upbringing, but this prince-charming sees something classy within her, some divine and fine essence which hasn't been discovered by anyone else but him. and he's also generous and big-hearted to discard the barrier of class and condescend himself to accept this woman. everyone is happy. story ends. i re-watched it months ago just to grasp some points i could attack over this flick..to begin with, in the beginning of the movie, richard gere cannot get his girlfriend, who is in the same class as him, who complains his incapability to spare some actual capacity for the relationship and his self-centeredness (i suppose female viewer tends to ignore it since he was kinda cute then) to attend a business banquet with him...so this man, who seems to have everything, needs some companion to escort him in some classy business meetings..then he encounters some paid woman, who could look classy after some gloomings done on her, to be his companion, who he could easily buy off with money. then this woman starts to ask for more like equal respects as if she was not his employee while insisting not to kiss him on the lips. it develops to the point that she even tries to depart without taking any bit of his money. but strangely that strategy works! eventually she gets EVERYTHING and him, of course! anyway, let's ideologize everything...let's see julia roberts' role as the representative of the proletariat female since she's really well loved by female audience...richard gere as some signifier of the suave male idle rich...the rich man, who's kinda dysfunctional in his relationship with woman in his own class, picks up some woman lower than him as some romantic redemption, woman who is grateful to appreciate his "chivalries"...just like man who marries woman from the third world, and within east asia, man marries woman from south asia (east asian countries are generally richer than south asian countries)...the woman would be rewarded if you follow the virtuous course of womanhood and maintain your fine essence within, then you would be compensated handsomely. it's like winning a lottery, one chance out of millions, but everyone is still buying it. as for those who don't have the luck to win the lotteries, they're lost courses which we don't have to pay any regard to. all the other street-prostitutes are incorrigibly corrupted, and let's leave them alone. let's disregard the general condition of gender inequality, and you woman just tries your best to beautify yourself, if you could look like julia roberts, you might win the lottery. i'm confused why some men detest chick flicks, which are literally ideal apparatus to justify gender inequality. but on the other hand, it points out the class issue, which means if you're not the elite of men, you're also a lost course without good laids. (crudely, if you're loser, you're discriminated from this scenery of romances)... of course, i didn't hate the movie, which is ok. adam smith says something, the reason why ruilig class remains in power is the aesthetization of human imagination, which favors to watch something beautiful rather than ugly. they use aestehtics to justify their priviledges. this is the case.

  Beauty and the Beast with Hector Elizondo as as teapot. Fun.

  Entertaining, but its not a very memorable movie

  This was always one of those films that I never had any intention of watching. But, boredom got the best of me and so I gave it a go. I was very surprised by how much I enjoyed it. I was interested the whole time. Also, a great performance by Julia Roberts!

  I'm just really not a fan of this movie. It's an incredibly horrible representation of prostitution and promises hopes and dreams where there are none. Richard Gere just doesn't fit into a likable leading man role, he is nowhere near as charismatic as he is epitomized to be. Julia Roberts is literally the only good part about this movie.

  Pretty Woman is basically a fun rom-com which is a million dollar making rework of cinderella. even though this sounds like something which has been done to death, richard gere and julia roberts refuse to slacken off throughout the film with consistently great acting throughout. even though some of the lines are cheesy as hell and some scenes and characters are completely irrelevant, it's a really good movie. that chick from las vega is good too. Defining Scene: Even though the jewellery box scene has gone down in history, the best scene is at the dinner table where they play on every stereotype there is to offer, and get away with it.

  It was never a favourite of mine although I enjoyed watching it as an 11 year old for obvious reasons. That said, I feel her stunt double should have had a higher credit than her, Roberts should have been introduced as 'Also starring...'
