Let me first say that I rented this movie through iTunes and watched it on the plane on the way home from Indiana on my iPhone. I love technology.
Let's face it. I'm a sucker for romantic comedies. I don't care if they have a plot. Really, it's not what I'm renting the movie for anyway! That being said, I actually really liked the plot in this movie. I think it shows up simply that relationships come in all kinds of forms and with all sorts of issues. My favorite part of the movie was Ginnifer Goodwin - she is SO cute! Her character is also fantastic because although she is pitiful and pretty sad to watch, EVERY woman in the world has a little bit (or maybe a lot) of her in them. We don't always make the right decisions and we certainly don't always use a lot of logic, but hey, we're doing the best we can, haha. I love Jennifer Connolly in everthing she does and I think my favorite scene in this movie was with her character - having found out her husband has been lying to her, she throws his clothes down the stairs and then slams a mirror into the ground, breaking it into a thousand pieces. The best part though, is that as soon as she breaks the mirror, she goes to get a broom and dustpan to clean it all up. Her husband is played by Bradley Cooper - I have one word. Hot. There is a great cast overall - Drew Barrymore, Jennifer Aniston, Ben Affleck, Scarlett Johanssen, Kevin Connolly, Justin Long. SO, for those of you that like chic flicks, I think you'll like this one too :)
i really enjoyed this one too. it was surprisingly deep and moving. of course i cried....it's my job basically. Bradley Cooper is probably my fav actor at the moment (and i DEFINITELY agree with your one word description and will raise you a "t" = HOTT). it's hard not to hate him just a little with this character though.
ReplyDeletei think we've all definitely been in at least one of these situations...it's nice to see good outcomes...even if it's throwing your hubby out and moving on. ya know?
I identified far too much with the girl that was constantly leaving messages and trying too hard...at times I was like, I totally did that!! So sad! I agree though, even at the end when Jennifer Connolly left her husband it was a good ending. And yes, Bradley Cooper=HOTT!!!!!
