Honestly, at the beginning of his career, Matthew McConaughey had some interesting parts but since the beginning of the 2000's, he gets keeping typecasted in those boring romantic-comedies. Furthermore, I thought he was was really miscast here. I mean, the guy looks way too good, too charming, too clever to be living with his parents. By the way, Sarah Jessica Parker was also mistcast, in my opini... read more

"July 20 I know what you're thinking. Why would you watch something like this? Zooey Deschanel was in it and I was hoping she would be at least half decent in this one. Her performance was probably the only good thing in this movie. Kathy Bates was OK in this one, but not her best role. I really hated this.

"OMG so cliché, but so charming! Even though I absolutely loathed the ending, Zooey Deschanel's dry wit and sarcasm is enough to save the film! Matthew McConnaughey is hot, Bradley Cooper is hot and Justin Bartha is hot. I also really liked Sarah Jessica Parker. "
