What critics compared Fools Rush In to
Salma Hayek ("Wild Wild West," "Fools Rush In") and Jason Lee ("Mumford," "Chasing Amy"), on the other hand, can't do much with their secondary characters.
One should expect little from the man who has directed an Olsen twins movie (It Takes Two, the one with Steve Guttenberg, no less), Matthew Perry's first Friends-to-film entry (Fools Rush In, its title an apparent nod to audiences that went to see it) and Sweet Home Alabama, one of those interchangeable romantic comedies located at the bottom of Reese Witherspoon's barrel.
The film is directed by Andy Tennant, maker of "Fools Rush In" and "Sweet Home Alabama."
Having been at the helm of a number of similar films--including "Anna and the King," "Ever After" and most recently "Sweet Home Alabama"--director Andy Tennant once again realizes the potential he had in the underrated "Fools Rush In" starring Matthew Perry and Salma Hayek.
Currently a huge, runaway hit in the States, Hitch is directed by Andy Tennant, who cut his romcom teeth on Sweet Home Alabama and Ever After (although the less said about Fools Rush In, the better).
Eventually, the two plotlines must meet, and given director Andy Tennant’s schlocky track record — “Fools Rush In,” “Ever After,” “Sweet Home Alabama” — you can guess how it’s going to go down.
Director Andy Tennant is no stranger to the genre (with films like "Sweet Home Alabama," "Ever After," and "Fools Rush In" under his belt) and what's fun about his latest romantic comedy is watching Smith and Mendes play off one another with sophisticated wit and charm.
