It's weird how a guy like me who knows stuff about "stuff" hadn't yet seen The Girl Next Door - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0265208/
A welcome start to this year's vacation movie festival [held on my comp]. I liked the movie, Elisha Cuthbert should get more movies, seriously. She looked great throughout the movie, acted well for her part and besides; it was just an easy watch [she made it a lot easier ;) ]
The story revolves around Matthew who is a nice guy who hasn't done anything 'crazy' in his life ever and wants to, but somehow he just can't. Enter Danielle [Elisha Cuthbert] who instantly arouses his interest. A series of interesting incidents occur and the catch in the movie enters when he realizes that Danielle is a former porn star.
The scenes thereafter in which Matthew begins imagining 'porn star' behavior from Danielle are pretty funny. One thing leads to another and the real plot of the movie begins in which Matthew tries to stop Danielle from re-entering the 'porn business'.
There is a lot of humor in this flick, supporting actors are good. And i must again mention Elisha Cuthbert; she really looks amazing. I remember this friend of mine at IIT-Kanpur who woke me up at 3 am to tell me that he had just seen The Girl Next Door, and how hot Elisha Cuthbert really was etc, etc. And i looked at the posters and a few Youtube videos and said, 'yeah good, another hot chic'. But no, my friends, this is one rare movie in which the best parts aren't over in the trailer itself. Do watch this movie, it's worth one watch for sure. The juice was totally worth the squeeze! [to get the meaning of the line, watch the flick]
Hopefully, i'll check out many more interesting movies during these vacations!

Funny enough. Cos i too saw it like just two days back, and i too was left wondering ki how no ones ever mentioned this till now. And my reaction was the same ofcourse, that Danielle(the name sounds so sexy) should act more. She is awesome, and too too cool....
well, the holidays atleast had this in store for me..!!! :-D
Dude
Elisha Cuthbert didnt come out as the one to gain most from the movie.
U dint look at Emile Hirsch I guess.
The male lead.
He has gone on to bigger things.
He got the male lead in Sean Penns directorial debut- Into The Wild, gr8 movie. And also he is starring in the movie SPEED RACER
and as for who posted this reply...take a guess
Well, considering i was watchin a movie after weeks, and that i'm a single guy [now] watching a movie about a pornstar [who does look quite impressive and attractive] at 3 am; it's hard to focus on Emile Hirsch.
P.S. I did know that he is working on Speed Racer ;)
