Maid in Manhattan (2002, USA) C-105m. SCOPE ** D: Wayne Wang. Starring Jennifer Lopez, Ralph Fiennes, Natasha Richardson, Stanley Tucci, Tyler Posey, Bob Hoskins. Contrived Hollywood romance set in a big New York hotel. Room maid Lopez, who is living a hard life as a single mother, one day dares to put on the dress of a guest, and is instantly mistaken for her by gentleman-politician Fiennes. Needless to say, it's love at first sight. How long will she keep up the masquerade? Certainly smooth but predictable, formulaic. Fiennes and director Wang should be ashamed.
