An average movie

Posted : 12 years, 6 months ago on 25 October 2011 09:41

I wasn't expecting much from the damned thing but since I have a weak spot for Jennifer Anniston and Aaron Eckhart, I thought I might check it out. Well, to be honest, the damned thing turned out to be even worse than I expected. I mean, Aaron Eckhart is a really solid actor and one of the most underrated actors right now and he did his best here. Concerning Jennifer Anniston, I have absolutely nothing against her, she seems to be quite charming and I'm pretty sure that deep inside, there is actually a talented actress hidden somewhere but she just keeps playing those thankless and totally boring characters over and over again so I lost hope with her a while ago. Furthermore, the whole thing could have been actually a rather powerful drama but they kept providing some obnoxious and useless comedy scenes every five minutes. So, there was this rather awkward back and forth between romantic-drama and romantic-comedy and it was just so annoying and it didn't work whatsoever. In fact, this movie reminded me of the Tom Cruise subplot in 'Magnolia'. Indeed, imagine if they had added some romantic-comedy bits in this terrific story. To conclude, I have seen worse movies but it was still really average and I donโ€™t think it is worth a look.

Love Happens review

Posted : 13 years, 4 months ago on 23 December 2010 08:42

I gave this film a try because it's Jen Aniston that plays and i was looking for romance movie. What i got is a little bit dissapoint me, because when you watch a drama movie with jen in it, you want a light hearted romance comedy
on it..what i got is a dramatic romance, and really dramatic storyline all over the movie...the man being brokenhearted from wife died many years ago, become a writer and motivator to help those who has through the same thing as he did. Meet the girl at one of his seminar, afraid of fall in love again and then fell in love. This can be a cute movie but the players seem not acting quite naturally and a bit forcing at some scenes. The storyline is easily to be read so would not raise your curiosity. After awhile around the middle I gave up, and look for another movie.
