Pretty Woman

One of the building blocks of romantic comedy, but something is still missing. I never really liked Juliina's crazy acting stance and I prefer Gerea as a slightly older veteran in more serious roles. The best character for me is undoubtedly the hotel manager Hector Elizondo, who never surpassed this little role again. Nevertheless, there is something likable about this Hollywood hustle and bustle that doesn't allow me to be angry at it despite certain reservations. 70% (18/06/2006)

If your eyes don’t sparkle with nostalgia, there is no help for you. Pretty Woman is stereotypical, predictable and full of romantic clichés, but it is so entertaining, sincere and has so many great scenes and jokes that it simply cannot be lumped together with other often quite vulgar romantic films. Richard Gere is a charming gentleman, Julia Roberts is an adorable boor – perfect casting, excellent performances. The music and the setting of a western metropolis are also just perfect. Unfortunately, the frequent repetitions on our TV stations significantly degrade this film for the audience, even though the film itself is not to blame. Today, it is an irreplaceable piece that captivates with its elegance and a simple, yet pleasant scent of humor and wit. Dreams do come true, don't they? (31/12/2006)

Whatever Pretty Woman might be like, I will always remember it as the movie that I first saw in the open-air cinema in Karlovy Vary. And that included an opening word by Richard Gere himself who was really surprised why we like this old movie and that almost seven thousand people gathered to watch it. What can you do? Pretty Woman is nice. It’s nice to watch, iron by, sleep by and all the other things you can do while watching movies. It’s simply a nice movie to go with any activity while watching TV. And there’s plenty of those. And I think most viewers in our country will like it, especially if you watch it with the excellent dubbing that always used to be done in our country (and sometimes still is). (08/09/2015)

I love movies with Julia Roberts and I'm even happier when Richard Gere is by her side. A timeless romance that never gets old. It's the "Vuitton" of movies... it lasts for years, everyone loves it and tries to emulate it... in vain. There's only ever one original. Perfect music, script, and style. A film that entertains, makes you cry, and makes you hot... the best! (04/12/2010)

"Pretty Woman" is a Christmas fairy tale for me that I always look forward to because it is just as beautifully naive as the classic fairy tales that are shown during Christmas. It's simply a story about how Cinderella finds her prince charming, but the difference is that it happens in the present time. And the setting fits perfectly. Beautiful scenes, a simple plot, but two actors who fit perfectly together, and thanks to them, the film works exactly as it should. Romance and nothing else, beautiful and naive. (30/12/2013)
