Movie review - "Hitch" (2005) ***1/2

A real delight, a total charmer with Will Smith very relaxed as the date doctor who helps men get women. Eva Mendes is a revelation as his love interest, sexy and smart, and the script and handling are consistently fresh and lovely. It almost makes you believe Amber Valetta would go for Kevin James. Just a note on the film's false morality towards the end: Hitch goes "I didn't help you get those girls you did" - we've seen the movie, he did help them get those girls. Besides what he does isn't bad it's a nice service he's providing.
