When you have the creators of Scary Movie and the Adam Sandler’s Happy Gilmore production team you are not going to get serious drama, you are going to get laughs, giggles, and more laughs. The House Bunny is the heartwarming story of Shelly Darlingson who grew up basically unwanted in a Midwestern orphanage only to blossom from an ugly duckling into a gorgeous swan. As a swan she flew into The Playboy Mansion with all the benefits, privileges, and parties only to be kicked out possibly for being too old. While homeless and skill-less, she uses her natural talents to walk into a job as House Mother of a local college’s failing sorority and transforms seven Ugly Ducklings into truly beautiful Swans both inside and out.

Fans
of Anna Faris and her movies will love this movie. If you have
seen at least one of the reviews and you did not laugh or you think you will not
like it—don’t see it. I will guarantee you antics, hysterics, and madcap
adventures in a style that can only be brought to you by Anna Faris. When
Shelly is (Anna Faris) teaching the girls how to pick up a man ala Marilyn
Monroe in The Seven Year Itch or how to throw the perfect Aztec
party (with Easter Island heads), you can’t help but laugh. This is not a
thinking movie. When Shelly is doing make-overs, don’t ask where she got the
cosmetics, lights, and money for wardrobes. Enjoy the music, whether it is
The Pussycat Dolls or Jennifer Lopez you will find yourself dancing
and cheering in your seat. 
The
cast is amazing with American Idol’s Katherine McPhee as
Harmony, Colin Hanks as Shelly’s love interest Oliver, Rumer Willis
as Joanne as well as Beverly D’Angelo as the rival House Mother to
Hugh Hefner and The Girls Next Door. The ultimate transformations of
each girl to attract attention around campus were inevitable and fun to watch.
As in other makeover movies like Clueless and Miss
Congeniality the transformation leads to a new found confidence, slow
motion We’re Hot campus walk, and an overall new look like in Mean
Girls. It is funny to see as the movie goes on that everyone learns life
lessons, who they really are, and that when the chips are down—you can really
count on your sisters.
