Synopsis

Amazon.com Review
"I'm an expert in parties and boys. I'm a Bunny! Men write to me from prison--sometimes in their own blood!" So declares ex-Playboy Bunny Shelley, tossed out of the Mansion by a rival for her advanced age (27--"59 in bunny years," she's told). As played by the utterly fearless and appealing Anna Faris, Shelley becomes an unlikely post-feminist heroine, who finds a great use for her not-too-considerable expertise: being sexy. With nowhere else to live, Shelley finds herself as the house mother for a dying sorority, the Zetas, who are the audience for the rallying cry above. And the slightly misfit sisters, though wary, end up giving Shelley a sisterhood she could never have built back at the Grotto. To help build up the sorority, Shelley gives the young women her own peculiar tutorials in charm school--helping them raise their campus profile and recruit new pledges in the process. "When I'm done, every girl on campus will want to pledge Zeta!" Ignore her at your peril, girls. If the formula is a bit predictable, the pace is lively and the cast, headed by the wide-eyed Faris, is aces. American Idol contestant Katharine McPhee is a natural on camera, as is Rumer Willis, daughter of Demi Moore and Bruce Willis. The supporting cast includes the capable Colin Hanks and Beverly D'Angelo, and a bit too much screen time for the real-life Hugh Hefner, who maybe should have stayed on the set of The Girls Next Door. Still, Faris channels the cheerful, girly determination of Reese Witherspoon's Elle Woods--no surprise since The House Bunny was cowritten by Kirsten Smith, who wrote Legally Blonde. Fans of silly romances, hop to it.--A.T. Hurley

3.0 out of 5 stars And the award for least original plot goes to..... House Bunny, 30 Jul 2009
By chuckles "barnie884" (Netherlands) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
What more can I say that my title? Well, this is a movie with a script taken from countless teen movies for boys. Girls' sorority house full of 'ugly' nerds is being put down a beautiful house. Nerdy house strikes back and becomes the best... with mismatch romances, clichés and slapstick comedy this is nothing if unoriginal. Saying that it is still amusing and I suppose writing it from a female point of view and replacing the wanna be sports jock with wanna be playboy model is a little different (just not a lot!). I also couldn't see the audience this was aiming at. Thought it was condescending to women and not sexy enough for the male watchers....

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the funniest films of the year..., 30 Nov 2008
By Sophie (Dorset, UK) - See all my reviews
I went to see this film when I missed the screening of another film at the local cinema. I was so glad I saw this instead. I assumed it would be another rubbish American chick-flick, but I was wrong!
Yeah it is a bit of a chickflick but there are loads of guys I know that loved this movie too.
It's really cleverly written and there is so much humour involved.

I totally enjoyed this film and I can't wait 'til it's released on DVD.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad for a girly night in!, 12 Jan 2009
By L. Felthouse "Avid reader and published writer" (Derbyshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
After seeing the trailers for this film, it looked so silly I thought it was the ideal Saturday night trashy chick-flick, and I wasn't wrong! Starring the pouty Anna Faris (of Scary Movie fame) as Shelley and Colin Hanks (son of Tom and star of Orange County and King Kong) as her love interest Oliver, The House Bunny is a giggle. Though it is just a giggle. I wouldn't say it was a full-blown belly laugh.

It begins with lots of girly giggly fun in the Playboy Mansion, with celebrations for Shelley's 27th birthday, which in case you didn't know is actually 59 in bunny years. Things take a turn for the worse after her birthday when she discovers that she's being kicked out of the mansion, for being too old. Hugh Hefner (yes, it's really him - looking every one of his 83 years, and then some) writes her a letter saying she has to be out of the house in two hours. The blonde bombshell tearfully departs, and this is where the fun really begins.

After a few false starts, Shelley finds herself ending up as the house mother for a dying sorority, the Zetas. The reason, however, that their sorority is dying is because the girls are misfits. True individuals, the girls don't care what anyone thinks and they just do their own thing. However, they're not popular, and for that reason they're not getting any pledges. If they don't do something soon, they'll lose their house. And this is where Shelley comes in, doing what she does best - being sexy.

After sexing-up the Zetas and organising some crazy events including scantily-clad car washes and virgin sacrifices at an Aztec party, the Zetas have never been more popular. Mission accomplished. However, in all her haste to sort out her new-found sisterhood, Shelley has forgotten about her own problems, until they come back and bite her on the bottom.

Overall, this isn't a bad film. There's nothing particularly original about it, and I wouldn't say you must rush out to buy it, but if you see it on sale somewhere, get your hands on a copy. It's an ideal girly night in film - not too much to think about, so you can talk and munch all the way through it and you'll still get the gist.

5.0 out of 5 stars The House Bunny is a bundle of fun!
