Monte Carlo review

Monte Carlo
*** (out of four)
Starring Selena Gomez, Leighton Meester, Katie Cassidy, Cory Monteith, Luke Bracey and Pierre Boulanger. Directed by Tom Bezucha. Approximately 109 minutes. Playing at major theaters. Rated G.

``Monte Carlo'' is an entertaining comedy geared towards tween girls. I think that this is the perfect movie for its target audience. It's romantic, funny and it's got Selena Gomez.
It tells the story of three girls named Meg (Leighton Meester), Grace (Selena Gomez) and Emma (Katie Cassidy) who go on a trip to Paris for a tour. The tour sucks and one day, when seeing the Eifel Tower during the tour, they are left behind by the tour bus. The girls go inside a hotel and Grace is mistaken for a British heiress (played also by Selena Gomez). So, the girls live the good life for a few days (eg. living in a fancy hotel room, going to fancy balls, etc.).
``Monte Carlo'' is a predictable, simple comedy with romance. If you are not a fan of Selena Gomez, romance, predictable plots or comedy, you will hate ``Monte Carlo''. However, if you are a tween girl who loves Selena Gomez, romance, comedy and don't mind predictable plots, ``Monte Carlo'' is the movie for you.
