All About Steve

'All about Steve' encompasses everything we all love about Sandra Bullock making a fool of herself. Unlike 'Miss Congeniality', however, she swaps her 'tough as old boots' stance in that film for very red boots that speak volumes about her character at every turn: quirky, nerdy, verbose and always eccentric. After pouncing on her date-quite literally-Mary becomes obsessed with Steve and dedicates a cross-word puzzle to him in her local paper. After this causes her to lose her job (as the resident cross-word puzzle creator), she decides it is her destiny to follow Steve cross-country, much to her detrimant. While 'All About Steve' encompasses great entertainment and light laughs, one can't help but feel a less aesthetic person may have been more suited to the role and excellent dialogue that shapes this quirky character so well. But in today's recessionary Hollywood where stars are needed to sell movies more than ever, we welcome Sandra Bullock and enjoy the light entertainment to the end of our popcorn. Go and laugh and let seriousness go aside in this offering from the same producer that made her funny in the first place
