Clay Loomis Gentlemen, we all know what we're in for when our women mention that a Tori Spelling movie is on. We're all in agreement that Tori looks like the female version of Robert Z'Dar (ladies, if you don't know, look him up). When the plastic surgeons were messing up her boobs they should have taken a couple pounds off her Leno-esque chin as well. She is also a bad actor. She wouldn't be in the entertainment business at all if her father didn't have so much pull in the industry.This forgettable TV movie is like all her others, overly sentimental and dripping with emotional treacle. It's a Chick Flick through and through, without a laugh or any action to be found. There is nothing here for men, not even a pretty lead to distract us from the fairy tale nonsense of a story.Guys, you've been warned. Ladies, now I know how YOU feel when WE watch The War of the Gargantuas.

edwagreen An absolute pleasure where Tori Spelling places a career woman whose company is gobbled up by a larger one. Her new boss believes in family values, and the single Tori hires a guy to pose as her husband so that she can keep her job. Her friend's daughter, played by a very young and precocious Abigail Breslin, acts as her daughter.What makes this film so good are the complications that soon develop over this lie. We're dealing with houses, the boss wanting to meet the family, her friend, whose house is used, is separated and her suspicious husband thinks she is fooling around with the guy that Spelling has hired to portray her husband.Obviously, we all know where this is going but it's quite funny and by the end, this is one lie that has worked out quite well.The old subjects of career woman and no family, and a lie spinning out of a control are well worked on here.

Amy Adler Charlie (Tori Spelling) has worked for a baked-goods company for quite awhile. Very talented, she has earned the respect of her fellow workers. However, her company has just been bought out by another cookie enterprise, one that has a very particular business philosophy. The owner places family as a top priority, along with other important work ethics. This means that bachelorette Charlie is not the most desirable of employees, for she is seen as having a life "out of balance." Therefore, when the takeover owner (Greg Germann) arrives to interview his new employees and make decisions about their futures with his firm, Charlie is advised by a close friend to "pretend" to have a husband and children. Against her best judgment, Charlie does so, telling her new boss that she has a hubby and a young daughter, but she also impresses the big man with her smarts. In short order, Charlie is given a higher level job and a big office. But, things get complicated when the CEO asks to have dinner with her family and, even worse, may move into a home very close to "hers". Although Charie hires an actor, Buck (Jordan Bridges) to pose as her better half and "borrows" a darling daughter, Nicole (Abigail Breslin) from her friend, it is a ruse that is hard to sustain. More complications arise when the handsome Buck thinks Charlie is a very attractive female. Can Charlie save her job, even if the truth surfaces? This is a very nice and funny love tale for those who never refuse a romcom. Although Spelling may not typically be everyone's cup of tea, she is quite warm and engaging in her role as the self-sufficient Charlie. Bridges is also a very attractive love interest while Germann is likewise good as the conservative boss. As for Breslin, in an early role, she is enchanting and one can easily see why she is a much sought-after young star these days. All of a film's niceties, from costumes to scenery to script, are well above average. I happened upon this film at K-mart, in a cheaper-movie bin, so my advice is to take a stroll over to this fine store. When the work day is done, get a group of ladies together for popcorn, cocoa, and the sharing of this very enjoyable romcom.

darrenmartin78 This was a great movie from start to finish. Tori did a great job playing Charlie and Jordan Bridges was great as Frank/Buck. Great on-screen chemistry between the two of them. I read in a PEOPLE magazine article that they actually used to spend summers together when there families were vacationing and that Jordan used to dump sand down Tori's shorts while at the beach.If you like romantic movies and a few laughs along the way, this movie is sure to please. A definite 8 out of 10, not quite like the Jennifer Aniston/Kevin Bacon movie Picture Perfect like stated above, I'd only give that a 6.Hallmark movies are great and need to be released on DVD so that more people can see them. A lot of people don't get the Hallmark Channel.
