The Perfect Man Reviews |
"The Perfect Man" crawls hand over bloody hand up the stony face of this plot, while we in the audience do not laugh because it is not nice to laugh at those less fortunate than ourselves, and the people in this movie are less fortunate than the people in just about any other movie I can think of, simply because they are in it.

--Roger Ebert (Chicago Sun-Times)
But despite its few assinine moments, The Perfect Man really isn't that bad of a movie. Mind you, I don't plan on ever seeing it again, but it has a few chuckles, some likeable characters and it doesn't take itself too seriously so I really can't complain about it too much. It's a movie made for a particular crowd and that crowd will probably love The Perfect Man. As for everyone else, it's probably a hit or a miss. For me, it was somewhere in between.

“The Perfect Man” has the candy-colored look characteristic of movies of its kind, as well as the haplessly bouncy music (by Christophe Beck) and the erratic direction (by Mark Rosman), which alternates generally flaccid pacing with spasms of pointless enthusiasm. It’s possible that tweens of the female persuasion will find it adorable. But couldn’t the studio have done the decent thing and released it directly to slumber parties rather than theatres?

"The Perfect Man" is full of people who do stupid things and then are surprised at the consequences. I include the filmmakers in that assessment, too. Here they have taken an impossible starting point, compounded it with an absurd premise, and then set the whole thing ablaze with a series of preposterous plot points -- and now they are probably sitting in their offices, wondering why their movie has done so poorly at the box office.

Messages about honesty and commitment get lost and the teen-girl crowd this film is aimed at should catch something else this weekend -- they'll likely find more pleasure from seeing Christian Bale in a batsuit. [read review]
“The Perfect Man” is a film so awful and devoid of anything that could even loosely be described as entertaining that it makes me hope that Duff will move away from acting and concentrate on her musical career. [read review] 
--Peter Sobczynski (eFilmCritic.com)
It’s deplorable that Universal and Rosman and Wendkos are out peddling this male-denigrating, feminist rubbish to impressionable young teenage girls. [read review] 1/10
"The Perfect Man" regularly reinforces a pattern of characters being interrupted every time something is about to get sorted out. [read review] 
"The Perfect Man" is a cutesy-poo, happy-go-lucky little movie about horrible, irresponsible, selfish people. [read review]
This is unwatchable. Stay away. [read review]
