About this movie

From the duo that brought you Dumb and Dumber and There's Something About Mary comes a hilarious film about "inner beauty"! Hal (Jack Black) is a man so shallow that all he cares about are the bodies of the women he dates. After being hypnotized into seeing the beauty that exists even in the least physically appealing women, he now thinks he's found true love. But what he doesn't realize is that his gorgeous girlfriend (Gwyneth Paltrow) is actually a 300-pound-not-so-hottie!

Ratings and reviews

One of the best movies I have ever seen. The plot was so believable and very funny. Such a shame we are all shallow Hal. But the ending was so touching. I cried. And I loved seeing Tony Robins. Also love Jason Alexander. Not to mention Gwyneth Paltrow.

Great lesson learner... it would b wonderful if all men saw women this way n vise versa

Clearly some reviewers here are nothing but shallow. Anyone who actually has any morals and values sees the beautiful message this movies teaches us. On top of that, pretty funny movie overall. One of my favorites.
