Preview: The Hottie and the Nottie (2008)

• Poster: D+

Review:

This Superstar-colored poster tries to capitalize on Paris Hilton's waifish-thin looks while featuring the film's other titular comparison. It's a rather repulsive idea much like the trailer.

• Trailer: D+

Review:

Dreadfully ugly, it's not the repulsive way they made the "Nottie" appear. It's the way the trailer seems to play into the vanity of Paris Hilton and lamely try to act as a social commentary on the definition of attractiveness. It's unlikely the film won't end up with the gangly young adult falling for the uglified woman.

Oscar Prospects:

Since Hilton insists on looking like a spiled heiress and pseudo-Valley Girl in the film, then I'd have to say "Not!" to its Oscar chances.
