Review of Drop Dead Gorgeous

If you like your humor and satire extremely obvious and incredibly unclever than this just might be the movie for you. Imagine if you crossed Little Miss Sunshine with Fargo...that is if Little Miss Sunshine sucked and Fargo was one of the worst films of 1996 instead of one of the very best. Then cross it with a bad TV sit-com and tack on a faux-documentary style. That's Drop Dead Gorgeous. Really. That's all it is. Not much to "get" here. Just the same clumsy social satire and heavy-handed jokes over and over again. The film eeked out a second star from me based on the reasonably adequate performances by most of the actors given what they had to work with. Unless your tastes are drastically different from mine, or you would rather not bring/take away much intelligence to/from a film you can probably just avoid this one.
