Although the premise is implausible, 10 is a witty picture with a pretty good performance by Dudley Moore and a great
script.
In fact, Blake Edwards' script is what makes the film. Of course, Dudley Moore lets the words come alive along with his
antics. On the other hand, Bo Derek, who's by default the cynosure yet is not much of an actress, obviously steals the show
with her blue eyes and, more importantly, distinctive hair style.
However, as soon as Bo's character is revealed as a pothead, there goes the novelty out of the window. Hence, the movie becomes
boring to watch with her appearing too often. No wonder why the musician opted for the prudish Julie Andrews.
All in all, 10 might come off as elitist, but it works out well for the most part.
