Fixing Pete

About This Movie

Fixing Pete, from 2012, dives into the world of fashion and journalism with a light-hearted touch. The story revolves around Ashley, a journalist who transforms not just appearances but attitudes, particularly with her subject, a rather rough-around-the-edges sports writer. The film captures that classic TV movie vibe, blending humor with romance, though it doesn’t shy away from the more nuanced dialogues about sexism and personal growth. The pacing feels typical for a TV flick, so don't expect a whirlwind of action; instead, it’s a slow build that leans heavily on character development. Performances are decent, with a certain charm in their chemistry that keeps you engaged throughout. It’s not groundbreaking, but there's a cozy atmosphere that’s hard to overlook.
