Review:
Another ABC Family romantic comedy. I have a thing for these cheesy movies. The Romeo and Juliet play is a bit overdone, but most of the actors make it fun.
Best Bits:
- Jean Paul Veber: [trying to tell the families that he can only pick one to go into business with] I can only go to bed with one of you.
- Joe Montebello: Ma told me to spice up my life. Gloria Montebello: Not with arsenic. Joe Montebello: Arsenic is not a spice.
