Hottie and the Nottie: What they said…. (Part 1)
Paris Hilton has recently been awarded a Razzie as Worst actress in 2008 for her movie, “Hottie and the Nottie” – which was also named by IMDb as the worst flick ever. But the Razzie as we may all know is just one body naming the worsts in Hollywood in the past year. So what I did today is compile several reviews from different movie critics and see what they had said about Paris’s flick.
Here are some of those reviews:
“Consensus: The Hottie and the Nottie is a crass, predictable, and ineptly staged gross-out comedy that serves little purpose beyond existing as another monument to Paris Hilton’s vanity.” – Rotten Tomatoes
“Paris Hilton has already ushered a remarkable three features into the Internet Movie Database’s “Bottom 100.” “The Hottie and the Nottie” will make it an even four, being so unfunny that the previously unthinkable sentiment “She deserves better” comes to mind. A certain disappointment sets in when the consummate awfulness subsides after an hour, becoming slightly less painful. But then, dropping a hammer on your foot improves that way, too. Biz will be hot … not.” – Vfilm
“…in case you were wondering, those acting lessons still haven’t paid off. She [Paris Hilton] pouts and poses her way through every scene, as if she is entirely unaware of the difference between modeling and acting. No matter the talent of the other members of the cast, her lack of big-screen charisma and flat line deliveries reduce every scene she’s in to the level of a high school play. And yet amazingly enough, she’s not the worst part of this film…” – ign.com
“Clearly attempting to remake Paris Hilton into the Bo Derek of our age, this comedy introduces its lead actress with a slow-motion shot of her jogging on the beach, with numerous hapless males ogling themselves silly. Unfortunately, Ms. Hilton is no Bo Derek, and “The Hottie and the Nottie” is no “10.” Clearly hoping to capitalize on the star’s notoriety, what should have gone straight to video has inexplicably wound up as a theatrical release.” – THR.com
