Editorial Review:
Adorable as she is ambitious, Kate (Jennifer Aniston) is determined to turn her mid-level advertising job into an executive position - and equally determined to tries snare Sam (Kevin Bacon), the agency's ultra-suave Romeo who prefers illicit affairs with attached women. She achieves both goals by pretending getting married to Nick, a man she met at a wedding and barely knows. But her carefully constructed fictional life comes face to face with reality when her boss wants to meet Nick, sending Kate's personal and professional worlds spinning out of control.
Description of Picture Perfect:
If you can get past Jennifer Aniston's form-fitting wardrobe in a movie about a woman struggling to advance in her profession, this romantic comedy is a fair match with My Best Friend's Wedding. Both films feature conniving, self-centered heroines who undergo a transformation--Aniston presents a bogus fiancé (Jerry Maguire's Jay Mohr) to impress her advertising agency boss and gradually discovers a mutual attraction with the imposter. Both movies go off in delightfully unpredictable directions. Picture Perfect falls prey to occasional sitcom fluff, but it's a fine showcase for Aniston's comedic and dramatic attributes. Critics were mixed-to-harsh in reviews for this movie, perhaps because it's a bit derivative and poses slight challenge to Aniston, who proved her skill with light comedy as a principal cast member of TV's Friends sitcom. It's clear that Aniston is a fine comedian, and she shows that talent to advantage in Picture Perfect. If you enjoy this movie, you should also check out Aniston's follow-up romantic comedy, The Object of My Affection. --Jeff Shannon

2009-10-23 - My wife and I enjoyed watching this movie. The story line was good and it was a click flict that guys will like watching.
Just Love This Movie!!!
2009-10-06 - Something about this movie that you can really identify with - for the ladies anyway. I have watched this several times and I sure can see alot of me and/or my friends in this movie! Sad or true, good or bad - it is all some of what we have done at some point in our lives! What a great ending. And J Mohr - love him! He is adorable in this! Course- Keving Bacon is always great - and I loved him and his character in this - very sexy I thought!
Just a great film, funny, sad, real true to life feelings in this that alot of us may not want to admit or face about ourselves... buy it ladies!
Love it!
2009-08-10 - This is my favorite movie of all time. Granted, it's not great cinema. It's romantic comedy fluff, but I love it anyway. Jay Mohr plays the most lovable character...you can't help but root for him. Don't expect a deep storyline. That's not the point of this movie. It's just pure entertainment. Sometimes, it's nice when a movie isn't "a thinker." I enjoy a twist-and-turn thriller as much as the next person, but this movie is just lovable.
awesome
2008-08-09 - I love this movie. It's romantic, funny, wity and the ending leaves me wishing there had been a sequel!

2008-04-04 - This is a very sweet romantic comedy that stars Jennifer Aniston. She portrays an ad agency copywriter that is involved with fellow costar Kevin Bacon. He is the company bad boy, and she is just too good for him. When she gets involved with Jay Mohr, she finds herself falling for him. I was surprised to find I liked Jay Mohr's character. I have never liked him in anything I have seen him in, but this is definitely the exception. This movie is enjoyable, but very predictable.
