greeting again from the darkness . seriously and i have nothing against cute movie with a message . what i can not stand be cute movie that aren not cute . throw in a grating voice over and cardboard character and i be definitely out . somehow a film write and direct by the american splendor team of robert pulcini and shari springer berman and star scarlett johansson and laura linney and paul giamatti come across a shallow and poorly write and and at time and laughably unwatchable . the stereotype be flow big time with rich and snobby and out of touch and self absorb upper east siders on display at every turn . throw in the harvard hottie ( play by the human torch and chris evans ) who have the dead mom and board school childhood misery go for him and a few misplaced mary poppins tribute and and the brilliant but poor anthropology major ( scarlett ) who just want to find herself work a a nanny and and you have the making of a cheap oxygen channel comdram . all party should be embarrass . the only semi bright spot be the icy rich mama play by the talented linney . when she flash that smile or the stare and it do have some impact while and the power broker rich daddy play by the always excellent giammatti this time with a stuffy accent . still the moment of hope be weak and all too infrequent . scarlett and evans be quite the eye candy for the twenty something crowd and but no one involve could possibly feel good about the final product here . such a waste .
