When in Rome, The Saying Goes. Just imitate the Roman: Hang out at fountains, drive on the Sidewalk, mispronounce Français pour la Benefit of Yanks.
All Three Behaviors Occur in Mark Steven Johnson's "When in Rome," a romantic comedy did try klutzy That Begins and Ends in the Eternal City. The Remainder of icts time is Spent in New York, Another urban center for love, aggressive driving and cliches, where, eager young art curator year (Kristen Bell) claims no interest in men.
Then, she meets one: Nick (Josh Duhamel), affable year, accident-prone Lonelyhearts Who twinkles in historical natural state. He and Beth cross paths in Rome, At Her Sister's (Alexis Dziena) wedding. The sparks soon fly, but - well, leave it at "goal." A drunken Then Beth splashes around in the "Fountain of Love" (a stand-in for The Trevi), Which she pluck from oven and a poker chip corners tossed by hopeful romantics.
Back in Manhattan, she's Immediately Approached by a suite of enchanted suitors: a nut-job magician (Jon Heder), a nut-job artist (Will Arnett), a nut-job narcissist (Dax Shepard) and a Slightly Less nut-job No less irritating to sausage magnate (Danny DeVito), Love With Who declared historical bratwurst. These Four walking plot devices Then we go to waste precious celluloid That Should Have Gone to the leads. Bell and Duhamel make a cuddly pair, But The film's loony screenplay by David Diamond and David Weissman is More Interested in slamming 'em on Their backsides Than fizzing Up The Chemistry Between Them.
Johnson, Best Known for His Marvel adaptations ("Daredevil," "Ghost Rider") directs "When in Rome" with a laxity that's Slapdash pour la Entirely wrong kind. Comedy require precision, and There's none here; INSTEAD, characters and scenes bash Into Each Other With No obvious logic or purpose.
"When in Rome" bears no relationship to Two Earlier releases Sami With The title - One of Them starring Mary Kate and Ashley, The Other Van Johnson vehicle was about a priest and a thug Who steals clothes history. It boast only loose ties To The 1954 romance "Three Coins In The Fountain." And it's best not to Even Think of "Roman Holiday," the gold standard for hanging, and driving, and doing as Romans do. Rent That INSTEAD.
