Summary: Pretty Pretty DVD
Review: Garry Marshall is the true star of "Pretty Woman", a fact that only comes out if you buy the DVD and listen to his witty and insightful commentary on the side track. Starring Julia Roberts in her career-inspiring role as Vivian, and a stalwart Richard Gere looking more handsome than ever as stuffy but approachable Edward, this vehicle made these two stars shine in the heavens. The trick to their magic was Garry Marshall's directing, and his philosophy of making the stars look their very best. And he succeeded. Sure, this movie is predictable and campy, but buying the storyline isn't required to fully enjoy this charming classic. Thumbs up to "Pretty Woman" on DVD.DVD owners: make sure you listen to Garry Marshall's commentary. I guarantee you will be laughing at some parts, and notice things you never have noticed before!

Summary: poor
Review: When a movie this bad does as well as it did, it boggles the mind. It shows the cream does not rise to the top, because Eric Roberts is a brilliant, charismatic actor, but it was his bland bland sister Julia who became the movie star of their family with this film. I read that after seeing this movie, girls from around the world flew into L.A. to try prostitution in order to marry a billionaire! I hope that isn't true. But it's people dumb enough to do that who would be dumb enough to like this movie.

Summary: Don't Watch Again.
Review: The first time I saw Pretty Woman, I thought it was great. When I saw the film again, however I was disapponted. I noticed it was poorly done and it seemed thrown hurridly together. There are editing mistakes which are noticeable, such as the breakfast scene. The movie is choppy between each scene, with no continuity. The dialogues written was also poor. The only good part of this movie is the cast- Roberts and Gere are delightful as a pair.

Summary: FOOLISH !
Review: Is there a story more foolish than that? If I want a fairy tale, stories for children are the best and they are surely more realistic than this one which can only be defined as ''a piece of garbage''. Even the prostitutes themselves would find it insulting, as it does not reveal the truths about their lives. Sure there have got to be movies about prostitution - which is the part of the real life - and certainly the ending would not be happy at all!

Summary: Simple Yet Effective
Review: At the beginning of the movie, it is fairly obvious what the outcome of the movie is going to be. Yet, it is still makes for interesting watching as to how it eventually evolves. Richard Gere and especially Julia Roberts turn in stunning performances in this easy to watch movie that will have you laughing. The subject matter is not so mindless that it will insult one's intelligence either.

Summary: Excellent DVD for fans of the movie
Review: The 10th anniversary edition of Pretty Woman on DVD is a great buy if you are already a big fan of the movie. Some people may appreciate the extra scenes that were deleted from the original theatre release. However, those that liked the original version just the way it was might find the extra scenes annoying or adding unnecessary plot points. For example, in this version, Carlos the drug dealer has somewhat more of a role. I didn't necessarily like him and I can see why this minor storyline was cut from the final version. However, I thought it was kind of fun to see some of the extra dialogue, scenes, etc. I just wish that I had the option of turning it off when I want to see the "real version." The commentary by the director (Gary Marshall) is kind of interesting too. The other features such as the behind-the-scenes featurette and the music video aren't particularly interesting and in my opinion, don't add much value to the DVD release.

Summary: Cinderella plays hooker
Review: Yes, it's incredibly predictable and far to sweet for it's own good sometimes but were it not for Gere and Roberts onscreen chemistry this could have been a dismal flop or nothing too engaging. Julia Roberts portrays a girl lost on the wrong side of the Hollywood tracks, prostituting herself to earn some hard cash. Richard Gere plays the typical hokie prince charming who sees it fit to lift her out of this pavement status. While never totally believable it always seems to skirt on issues that leave it lacking the courage of its true convictions. The director had pure romantic comedy in mind here, thereby totally disregarding an underbelly that could have given the film more depth. If you like your comedy's laced with about as much cuteness and sugary sweetness as a precosious six year old then your in seventh heaven here else others may find it a mild, incredibly simplistic way of passing an evening.

Summary: Worthy Special Edition VHS
Review: The 10th anniversary edition has enough to make any person without a DVD player happy (ezcept for the absense of an alternate widescreen edition). It's a director's cut with about 5 minutes additional footage which includes more to the sequence when Edward picks up Vivian in the Lotus, a completely new sequence taking place the night of Richard's day off when Vivian's unable to find Kit at the Blue Banana before being confronted by Carlos and his thugs, plus many other small worthy additions. One of the new scenes removes a continuity error at one point in which Vivian takes Edward's shoes off under the tree, before they miraculously appear back on, by omitting the mistake and replacing it with footage of Richard and Vivian riding horses. After the movie they show the full-length theatrical trailer, followed by a not-so-noteworthy behind the scenes featurette, followed by the forgotten "Wild Women Do" music video by Natalie Cole. The tape is definately worth they money, I reccomend it to any fan of the movie.
