The House Bunny (2008)

Anna Faris rocks and not just with a widening of the eyes and a shimmy of the ta-tas. I last saw her in Scary Movie, back then she sucked. But what would you expect from a movie of such genre. Now she stars in the gaily laughable, formula comedy The House Bunny — and she gives an A+ performance in the kind of farce from which she's more than ready to graduate. Faris plays Shelley Darlington, a Playboy Bunny banished from Hef's mansion on the grounds she's way old: 27, which is, she's told, 59 in Bunny years. Homeless, the cheerful waif stumbles her high-heeled way onto a college Greek row. And before you can say Zeta Alpha Zeta, she becomes house mother to a sorority of losers in danger of having its charter revoked because they can't recruit any new losers to join them.Wisdom from Shelley to her Zeta girls: ''The eyes are the nipples of the face.''
