Sparks fly and cultures collide in this romantic comedy about a casual night of passion that turns into the love of a lifetime.
Matthew Perry ("Friends") stars as Alex Whitman, a New Yorker sent to Las Vegas to oversee a construction project. There he meets Isabel Fuentes (Salma Hayek, "Desperado"), and some serious chemistry brings them together for one night. But Alex doesn't see Isabel again until three months later, when he learns that she is pregnant. On a whim and a prayer, he proposes. However, there's more to marriage than a Vegas chapel and an Elvis impersonator, as Alex and Isabel soon learn in this "perfect date movie. Marvelously entertaining, romantic and utterly charming" (Paul Wunder, WBAI).
 
"...[the] perfect date movie. Marvelously entertaining, romantic and utterly charming."  Paul Wunder, WBAI
"One of the most endearing, delightful love stories in years."  Jeffrey Lyons, WNBC-TV
"...appealing and credible performances by the two stars."  Leonard Maltin's Movie & Video Guide

 


Editor's Note

After their rash one-night-stand results in an unanticipated pregnancy, two virtual strangers--a stuffy, upwardly mobile white Manhattanite and an intense Chicana artist--impetuously decide to tie the knot Vegas-style. But can they survive the pressures of their worlds-apart backgrounds and fall in love for real?

Professional Reviews
USA Today
"...Agreeable lead performances...Hayek is never less than passionate..." 02/14/1997 p.4D

Los Angeles Times
"...Reback's script has real substance and perception....Told with humor, passion and wit....A film as good-looking and engaging as its stars..." 02/14/1997 p.F6

Chicago Sun-Times
"...Sweet, entertaining....What makes FOOLS RUSH IN entertaining is the energy of the performances -- especially Salma Hayek's....Here she reveals a comic zestfulness..." 02/14/1997 p.37

James Berardinelli's ReelViews 7 of 10
...[Perry] is arguably the most talented member of the cast of Friends, and he proves to have a style perfectly suited to this sort of low-key, light role. He's the kind of actor you naturally want to like. Salma Hayek, who until now has been relegated to supporting roles in bloody films like Desperado and From Dusk Till Dawn, has the face of an angel and a body to kill for. She radiates both sensuality and sweetness, and makes a delightful opposite for the more laid back Perry. These two are believable as a divided couple who are hopelessly in love.

5 of 5 A wonderful warm romantic comedy Wednesday, August 27, 2003
vizfam from levittown NY  

I highly recommend this movie to anyone who loves romantic comedies, it will make you laugh and cry. This is the first time I saw Selma Hayek, what a knock she is and a wonderful actress.It is a welcome relief from the "American Pie" gendra that passes for comedy these days.

5 of 5 Best love story in a long time!!! Friday, January 21, 2000
A Viewer from Marion, IA  
This movie will leave you with a warm fuzzy feeling. The plot is histerical at times and weepy at others. The story is wonderfully told and will keep you in your seat wanting more. Matthew Perry is irresistable and Salma Hayek is beautiful!! They make the perfect pair. This is a MUST SEE for romantics at heart!!!
