The only reason I viewed this film is because I find Paris Hilton a very attractive sexy actress with fantastic lips. The story deals with a young man named Owen Peadman, (Jason Mewes) who is an outstanding bartender in Minnesota and works in his father's bar. However, his father needs money to keep the bar open and so Owen heads to Hollywood in order to win a bartender contest. Owen has an Uncle Earl, (David Keith) who shows Owen all the people he has to get to know as well as all the hot spots where most of the actors hang out. Uncle Earl is gay and he hides it from Owen until he has no choice but to let his secret out. There is plenty of nudity and real foul language and there is not very much of a story. Paris Hilton played the role as Lisa Mancini and became quite interested in Owen after she looked down her nose at him. If you like Paris Hilton, you will see her in dark hair, but still very very attractive.

First off, this isn't that bad of a movie,, i mean if you go in expecting only so much, look at it this way, you have Paris Hilton, who still can't act worth a lick,, but doesn't butcher the lines in this one,, now she doens't run around half naked in this one like House of Wax,, i know big disappointment there, the plot, well there ain't much of one,, i mean it is a barrel full of laughs all the way,, especially the bit about the gay uncle.. basically the main character has to win a bartending contest, and when he doens't win , he has to find a way to make money in Hollywood,, so he can bring it back to his dad to save his restauraunt in Minnesotta, all in all the movie was funny , yeah some was lame,, but all in all though it wasn't near as bad as people make it out to be.

For fans of Jay and Silent Bob, also known as Jason Mewes and Kevin Smith, this movie was not about them in their usual roles. This movie was not written by Kevin Smith and has little bearing on the style and characters he would write into a movie. But to see them in the same movie in different roles made this worth a look. And I was not disappointed at all.Owen Peadman is played by Jason Mewes aka/Jay. Owen is a very milder version of Jay but still an intriguing character and his acting was excellent throughout the movie. From his facial expressions to his quick witted responses, Mewes does not disappoint. Throw in the few scenes with the always funny and witty Kevin Smith and you still have a good Jay and Silent Bob connection. Not to mention Owen using the Jay and Silent Bob term "Sirs" in one scene. The underlying familiar humor was welcome.Now let's look at the characters of Uncle Earl Peadman played by an outstanding actor, David Keith. David Keith has played many macho roles and seeing him play a gay man was quite different. But he played it well and by the end of the movie, you felt his character.Now let's take a look at the questionable role for Paris Hilton. First of all the role was perfect for her because she's lived that lifestyle. I almost perceived her as wishing she was her character instead of playing it. But unfortunately that's not true. So putting her name aside, I think the young lady who played Lisa Mancini did a great job at bringing out her character. She was a soft, hard and everything in between.The movie will probably get bad reviews because of her. But as a comedy, I thought the movie was witty, funny and well written with underlying twists.I recommend this movie just because you can sit back and watch it and laugh without thinking too much. A nice view after a hard day at work.
