Monica Potter is hilarious in this movie! Many times she reminded me of Julia Roberts. All the bad reviews are ridiculous. It always amazes me that people like Jim Carey- with all his sick and completely STUPID humor- can be called a genius but a wonderful movie like this gets put down. I guess it's not TASTELESS enough for some people! It's a funny movie that does exactly what it is supposed to do, entertain you for the evening. And at a time as sad as this, it took me away from reality for a little while and made me laugh.

This movie is mildly entertaining, but definitely not a keeper. Freddie Printz Jr. is very nice to look at, but he isn't a strong enough leading male actor to carry off the lead. Monica Potter was surprisingly good as the female lead. I didn't buy the chemistry between the two of them because it felt forced. The supporting cast was pretty good, and they did provide some laugh out loud moments. Overall, the movie was just too silly to get interested in.

Many fans of romantic comedy won't like the bathroom humor and sexual humor that reign in this Freddie Prinze Jr. movie. Then again, it is from the writers of There's Something About Mary, and it is funny. Most critics hated this movie; some critics won't even watch anything with Freddie Prinze Jr. But I liked it. This is a sweet, funny movie. The action scenes won't exactly have you on edge, but the comedy and the romantic chemistry work.

"HEAD OVER HEALS" IS ONE OF THE FUNNIEST COMEDIES OF RECENT YEARS. I THINK MONICA POTTER HAS A JULIA ROBERTS LIKE QUALITY. I BELIEVE WE WILL BE SEEING ALOT MORE OF HER IN THE FUTURE. POTTER MEETS THE PERFECT GUY (FREDDIE PRINZE JR.), BUT SOMETHING'S NOT RIGHT HE'S TOO PERFECT. WHEN SHE SUSPECTS HE MAY HAVE KILLED A GIRL, POTTER AND HER NEW MODEL FRIENDS DECIDE TO INVESTIGATE. THE RESULT IS EXTREMLY FUNNY. THE ACTORS HAVE A GREAT TIME WITH THE TOILET HUMOR. AND WHEN I SAY TOILET HUMOR, I MEAN TOILET HUMOR. TWO OF THE FUNNIEST SCENES INVOLVE TOILETS. DON'T LET THAT TURN YOU OFF, IT'S DONE IN GOOD TASTE. MORE FUN IS ADDED WITH THE AIRHEAD MODELS THAT POTTER ROOMS WITH. I RECOMMEND THIS MOVIE HIGHLY, IF NOT FULLY.

"Head over Hills" is definitely one of the best comedies of all time...
What are you looking for when you get a romantic comedy? Most of the stories have been done and there's just little to improve in comedy.
This movie has good taste using clichés about models, girls, love at first sight and predictable situations.
I've read some reviews that destroy this movie but those don't make any sense.
If you decide to watch this movie you'll find a good realization and narrative, along with a nice entertaining story... nice characters, decent acting...
REMEMBER THAT THE GOAL OF SOME MOVIES IS JUST TO ENTERTAIN
and this one will entertain you a lot (if you're not a bitter person) it will entertain you more than ten times...
Well, it might be like opera... if you don't love it you'll hate it... but my prediction is... YOU'LL LOVE IT!!!!!! (A must have)

Head Over Heels is light-hearted fare and is perfect for girl sleepovers, girl bonding, and that sort of thing. Major chick flick. This isn't a movie to make your boyfriend/husband sit through. Though there are plenty of dimwit, pretty models for him to look at while you admire Freddie Prinze, Jr.

This feature tries to bring in elements of suspense and a "whodunit" type of story, but ultimately it's still about a boy and a girl. The question is whether or not they end up together despite the possibility he could be a criminal.

Freddie is adorable, as usual, and Monica Potter gets to show off some slapstick humor.

You'd think that living with four models -- who are constantly dressed in evening gowns and are always surrounded by rich guys who will buy them anything just for a chance to be in the same room -- would be a bit...disconcerting. But Amanda Pierce (Monica Potter) doesn't mind. All she wants is to move on with her life, forget about men (one of whom she just caught cheating on her), and throw herself into her work (restoring paintings at the Met).

Things change, however, when she meets Jim (Freddie Prinze, Jr.), the gorgeous fashion exec who lives in the next building. Amanda and her roommates spend hours spying on him -- watching as he baby-sits, buys candy from schoolgirls, and does chin-ups -- until they decide to get Amanda closer to him by crashing a party at his place.

Amanda finally gets Jim's attention-and gets him to ask her out. But after she returns home, she sees what looks like a murder -- one that Jim committed in his apartment. So before going on a date with a killer, Amanda -- along with her evening-gown-clad roommates -- go undercover.

Head Over Heels is definitely high on my guilty pleasure scale. It's a cheesy, sappy, goofy movie filled with clichés and anorexic supermodels doing undercover surveillance in heels, and I loved it. In fact, I was watching it alone, and it still made me laugh out loud. It's a good thing I got a five-night rental -- that meant I was able to watch it once or twice more before returning it.

Maybe I'm the only one who absolutely love this movie...But I am a huge fan of Freddie Prinze Jr. Anyways, hilarious movie with interesting twists. Usual happy ending, but cute movie nonetheless.

The casting in this NYC romance/comedy is absolutely grande! Freddie plays a mysterious fashion executive whose druling dog Hamlet can't get away from Amanda(Moinca Porter). It is a love at first sight until Amanda thinks she sees him murder someone! So she and her new model roommates must take on the task of doing their own investigation, since the police think they are just being silly models.

This movie is a fast paced whirl-wind of twists, turns, and surprises. Be in suspense while laughing hysterically at this great comedy!

Billed more as a romantic comedy than anything else, this one only works if you go see it to laugh with the four women playing the Greek chorus of supermodels who help their new roommate (Monica Potter) get the guy of her dreams (Freddie Prinze, Jr., whatever) whom she keeps watching work out in his room from her window across the street (whatever). One day Potter thinks she sees Prinze commit murder and now what to do about it? Prinze's inability to convince us that he's over nineteen saps much of the film's credibility, but the many funny moments involving the girls will you keep you interested throughout. Potter's uncanny ability to look and sound like Julia Roberts will creep you right out of your skin.
