Romance, 105 Minutes, 2010
I find it difficult to review this. There are elements of an absolute classic here, make no mistake. At the same time there are hallmarks of a watch-once-and-throw-away disposable date flick.

Movie Review: No Strings Attached

I’m not a big fan of Ashton Kutcher but I’m a huge fan of Natalie Portman so it kind of balances out. Unfortunately they spend a lot of time in this movie trying to make her unlikable but luckily that’s impossible.

Movie Review: Just Go With It
Comedy, 117 Minutes, 2011
You know if you’ll like this before you see it. Nothing I can say can ever change that. Lord help us all.
Like any of the recent rash of Rom-Coms there are few giggles here and, yes, there are some gratuitous (thanks!) scenes of Brooklyn Decker and Jennifer Aniston in bikinis – but damn, there’s not much else. I guess Bailee Madison was cute enough – given a decent script she might actually be more than yet another “kid that talks like a grown up for our amusement”.

Movie Review: The Switch

Meh.
This is the same basic, cookie-cutter, rom-com recipe that seems to draw Jennifer Aniston in like a fly to honey. Jason Bateman’s career hasn’t been doing nearly as well as his talent deserves so he can be forgiven nearly any sin at this point, but Aniston is really driving herself into a nice, comfortable, completely unchallenging rut.
