House Bunny
My Review:
House Bunny is sweet enough, just not meaty enough. It’s a big puff of cotton candy, which makes for a nice little snack, but not a whole meal. Anna Faris stars as Shelly, a Playboy playmate who is forced to move out of the mansion. She stumbles upon a sorority house, and becomes house mother and image consultant to a group of misfit girls. Of course, they have their awkward moments, but Shelly is able to bring out the beauty in each of them. As their confidence soars, so does their popularity. Shelly herself gets a bit of a makeover when she falls for the sweet and conservative Colin Hanks (Tom’s son!) and finds her inner intellect. A rivalry with another house puts the chapter in jeopardy, and Shelly must choose between her old life and new one, and of course, there are happy endings all around. Rumer Willis, daughter of Demi Moore and Bruce Willis, is one of the girls. As is Katharine McPhee of American Idol fame.
The House Bunny
- -Sexpot Shelley Darlington lives comfortably at the Playboy Mansion, until a jealous rival gets her tossed out on her tail. With nowhere else to go, she winds up at Zeta Alpha Zeta sorority. The seven socially inept Zetas will lose their house unless they can attract more pledges; to do that, they need to learn the ways of makeup and men from an expert.
