I love the movie Pretty Woman a lot. It is a very well directed movie with a very excellent performance by Julia Roberts. It is her first big ticket movie in Hollywood. I started loving her performance from this movie and I didn't find any of her movies more fascinating than this one. Do you agree with my opinion or do you think there really is a better movie acted by her?

I love Notting Hill, Pretty Woman and she did some pretty good suspense films, such as the one with Denzel Washington, I just can't remember the title of the movie. And there's of course Erin Brockovich and My Best Friend's Wedding. I surely hope that she will still do some movies in the near future. I think she's pretty absorbed by her twins.

I agree with Lady Marissa, Pretty Woman is the only movie that I never tire of watching over and over again. Another favorite of mine is Notting Hill with her famous "I'm just a girl" line, and My Bestfriend's Wedding. Julia keeps getting better in every movie she does. She still is the Queen of Romantic Comedies for me, nobody does it better than her.

For me, it's a tie between "Notting Hill" and "My Best-Friend's Wedding" in the love story division. "America's Sweethearts" was also kinda cute. Her acting piece was definitely "Erin Brockovich" and her work in "Mona Lisa Smile" was flawless. But Im still a big Fan of Pretty Woman. No, huge!

Well, I am a bit partial to Pretty Woman myself.What I didn't know was that she was nominated for the award. But she did a heck of a job on The Pelican Brief with Denzel Washington. superb in Runaway Bride, a knockout in Ellen Brockovich for which she won an Oscar in 2001. Haven't seen her in much lately, but hope she comes back.

Well Pretty Woman is one of my favorite movies. I often wished that I was in her shoes and lucky enough to find a millionaire to fall in love with me. Julia Roberts is very sexy,beautiful, and talented. She has been in a lot of interesting movies.

I loved Pretty Woman & never tire of watching it!!! Her other movie that I don't know was better but was every bit as good was Run Away Bride. She is good in any comedy she is in' (especially with Richard Gere)!!! Her laugh is infectious

I think Julia Roberts played her roles well in these two movies; Forever Young and Erin Brokovich. There was much depth in character and although Pretty Woman was a nice feel good movie, If depth in character and emotions involved, I will recommend the two above mentioned movies as some of her finest acting jobs to date

Hi sweetmummy,
I'll have to agree. Pretty Woman is an excellent movie, for a love story. But Erin Brachovich is an awesome movie depicting a single parent making it with family and career. It is a very good movie and is worth seeing. Check it out. You won't regret it..

Actually I am going to have to say Erin Brockovich. Don't get me wrong, I love Pretty Woman. However, Erin Brockovich has a deeply moving plot that, while having a reference to romance, is more focused on Erin's development as a woman, mother, and career woman. She gets a job as a legal secretary and ends up fighting to save a town from a corporate giant, but has to learn how to balance raising her children as well. Absolutely out of this world.
