Fools Rush In (1997)
4/10
Virtually unwatchable tripe
28 November 2022
Matthew Perry meets Salma Hayek in line waiting for the bathroom and they immediately sleep together because otherwise there wouldn't be a movie. Three months later she show up and tells him she's pregnant and she knows he's the father even though she was basically engaged to another man because the movie needs to happen. He agrees to meet her parents and immediately proposes to her the same night because ... you know what I'm going to say.

Surprisingly, they have relationship troubles despite never really having met and apparently never having any conversations about anything since they are consistently surprised by details about each others' lives.

Nobody in this movie acts like real human beings. I can accept a little bit of that since ... you know ... it's a movie, but when the plot only works because every decision the main characters make is plain mystifying, it starts to get to be too much.

I'm not surprised that Perry didn't have a film career. He kind of works as part of a larger ensemble on "Friends", but left to his own devices here, he's startlingly unlikeable.

Tomas Milian is in this movie. I sort of liked that.
