Title: Cute movie for Baker fans
Product review: As a new fan of The Mentalist, I was intrigued to see other Simon Baker movies. This movie has an interesting premise but doesn't fully develop into a well-rounded plot. I blame the writer for that. The talent is there-- Mindy Cohn is excellent as is Julie Bowen (good to see her early stuff), Winona Ryder. However, Simon Baker steals the show with his rather tongue-in-cheek performance. I can see how it would be easy to over-play his character but Baker holds back and let's us see him slowly unravel. For being a "heart throb" so to speak, Baker is a talented actor and its a joy to see him perform. I suppose he could be considered the thinking woman's sex-symbol.Overall, I liked the movie. Its fun to watch on a rainy Saturday especially if you're a Baker fan!
