3 out of 5
What happens to a Playboy bunny when she's over the hill is the focus of this sweet, daft comedy. Anna Faris sparkles as hapless man-pleaser Shelley Darlington, who's ejected from the Playboy Mansion when she hits the ripe old age of 27. Shelley finds an outlet for her limited talents when she helps to transform the fortunes of a geeky girls sorority that's threatened with closure, and finds something new in herself in the process. Faris is clearly a talented and attractive actress, but she's let down here by an average script and director Fred Wolf's inability to nail the concept's true comedy potential. That said, there's nice support from Colin Hanks (son of Tom) and Rumer Willis (herself the daughter of Demi Moore and Bruce Willis), as well as some great set and wardrobe design. Watch with low expectations and this will be pleasantly surprising.
Plot Summary
Comedy starring Anna Faris. Orphan Shelley Darlington has worked and lived at the Playboy mansion since she was a teenager, but after a party to celebrate her 27th birthday she's sacked for being too old. Out on the streets and unemployed, Shelley falls in with a failing college sorority and sees an opportunity to use her experience as a bunny girl to change its fortunes.
