It's difficult to determine just how much of the film is specifically gratuitous partial nudity and how much is a purposeful lampoon.

| Original Score: 2/10 | Nov 28, 2020

Undeniably flawed but consistently funny.

| Original Score: 2.5/4.0 | Sep 11, 2020

This is completely and utterly Faris' film.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 21, 2014

An utterly predictable and formulaic comedy given a huge kick in the keester courtesy of its effervescent star.

...it's hard to deny the effectiveness of Anna Faris' energetically go-for-broke performance...

| Original Score: 2/4 | Feb 10, 2009

Why the film works: Anna. Faris.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jan 6, 2009

The result isn't very funny, and its sexual politics are as muddled as you'd expect, but Faris is sweet and likable as the sort of wise dumbbell Judy Holliday used to play.

Not funny, not sexy, not even obnoxious enough to get anyone worked up, The House Bunny truly establishes a new low water mark for 2008 cinema.

Full Review | Original Score: 38/100 | Dec 14, 2008

The flatness of humor comes from the directing and timing, rather than necessarily the dialogue or actor skill. More than once I thought to myself, "That joke totally could have worked."

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 9, 2008

There's a sublimely goofy tone to this profoundly inept film that keeps us smiling from start to finish

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 10, 2008

With strong comic performances and some good laughs, The House Bunny is fluffy, forgettable fun, but it's no Legally Blonde.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 10, 2008

This silly comedy has a few decent jokes in its otherwise dim screenplay. However, its parody is as toothless as Hefner probably is by now.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 10, 2008

The ending is predictably feel-good - if it takes way too long coming - but the female-penned script keeps you perky with some surprisingly surreal flashes... such as: 'The eyes are like the nipples of the face.'

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 10, 2008

One could be forgiven for thinking that the American college system is merely one big popularity contest. Certainly, no one does anything outrageous like read a book.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Oct 10, 2008

It is all so cheesy, The Sneak almost felt like not wanting to be a film critic anymore.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 10, 2008

Every banality is trotted out right on cue, from the makeover montage to the awkward first date, to the usual hoary old moral about being true to yourself, making this one bunny due for the casserole pot.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 10, 2008

Depressingly for a film written by two women, it's relentlessly sexist in its insistence that, in order to attract men, women must appear brainless and dress like a hooker.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Oct 10, 2008
