Review of Blonde Ambition (2007) by Lisa G — 31 May 2008

The city that never sleeps is about to meet the girl that doesn't quit. Jessica Simpson stars as Katie Gregerstitch, a small-town Oklahoma beauty who's come to New York to visit her long-time boyfriend.

But after finding him in the arms of another woman, Katie decides to lose her cheating man and to find herself. With the help of two scheming co-workers (Andy Dick and Penelope Ann Miller) , she lands a job at a top construction firm where she meets and falls for a great guy (Luke Willson) with an even greater secret.

Now, nothing is going to stop this go-getter from getting exactly what her heart desires in the romantic comedy that proves you can't keep a bright, beautiful down-home girl down. Remarkable Dick's brand of comedy and stupidity fits into this film like a round peg in a round hole.

He is stupid and slapstick and annoying and it just seems to be the perfect role for him and he actually comes across as funny for the most part. Luke Wilson, who can...sometimes act...is kind of bland as her pursuer and love interest.

Together they have chemistry and are reasonably cute together but both their characters are kind of shallow and dumb. The premise is generic, the outconme is obvious and you'll feel like you've seen this somewhere before.
