Love Wrecked (2005)
Love Wrecked is a romantic comedy starring Amanda Bynes who, is stranded on an island with a rock star, and attempts to win him over. It sounds like it could be good, right? Well, the movie starts off fine, decent but not stellar, it does enough to keep you going. Amanda plays the character Jenny, and her childhood friend (who is secretly in love with her) is introduced, they work on an island resort. A famous rock star called Jason arrives, and after a storm, Jenny is shipwrecked on an island with Jason, and Jenny attempts to win him over. You would have thought the island stranding would be the beginning of the good parts, however, it ends up becoming a boring drag with a distinct lack of humor. While Amanda Bynes is the highlight of the movie, even she alone cannot hold the whole movie up. The introduction of the "plot twist" and another secondary character further degrades the movie into a standard typical plot. While it is not horrible, Love Wrecked can be a drag at some points.
