Editorial Reviews: Amazon.co.uk Review The words "subtle" and "Ashton Kutcher" rarely appear in the same sentence, but here goes: iA Lot Like Love/i, a romantic comedy starring Ashton Kutcher and Amanda Peet, is surprisingly and pleasantly subtle. The story starts when Emily and Oliver meet on a flight to New York and have a tryst in the airplane bathroom. After a day's dalliance, they part and don't meet again for four years--when they meet, spend a day together, part, and don't meet again until...you begin to get the idea. The script could have been dangerously cute, but director Nigel Cole (who helmed the delightful iCalendar Girls/i) carefully steers Peet and Kutcher, two actors not generally noted for their grasp of character nuance, towards fairly three-dimensional portrayals of two floundering twentysomethings who can't seem to find the right moment. There are a few rom-com cliches--at one point, Oliver serenades Emily in front of an audience of her neighbors--but most of the movie is low-key, engaging, and smacks of actual human experience. i--Bret Fetzer, Amazon.com/i

February 26, 2006 Sue Lewendon (England) 15 out of 17 found this review helpful All I can say is WOW!pThis is what romantic comedies should be like! There#x27;s a storyline that isn#x27;t far fetched, drama and tears with just the right amount of smooches and mushiness, and to top it off, a fantastic chemistry between the two leads.pAshton Kutcher has so far done nothing to gain my disapproval with his choices of roles. Whether he be playing a true goof ball such as Jesse in Dude, Where#x27;s My Car? or a straighter role like Evan in The Butterfly Effect. He has again made my day with this performance.pAmanda Peet is another actor who I admire greatly. I first saw her in The Whole Nine Yards and knew I#x27;d see a lot more of her. She is awesome in this film, especially as far as the comedy goes. The out-takes alone are worth a watch just to see how well these two really get along.pThe basic plot is that the two of them are sharing a flight although they don#x27;t know each other. After having been dumped by her boyfriend just before her flight, Peet follows Kutcher into the planes bathroom and they have sex. This seems to be a personality trait in Peet, just to prove that although dumped, she#x27;s still attractive to men! Kutcher tries to strike up some sort of relationship when they leave the airport only to be rejected.pA few days later, they bump into each other and spend the day together just sight seeing and chatting. During the day they talk about their futures and Kutcher reveals a detailed plan of his life for the next 6 years. Feeling slightly mocked by Peet#x27;s reaction to this, he hands her his parent#x27;s number and tells her to call in 6 years time to find out if he really has acheived his goals.pThat#x27;s the basic plot and it#x27;s where the true fun begins. There#x27;s a great scene where they drive through the desert in an attempt to cheer Kutcher up, and the scenes with his sister are hilarious but I don#x27;t want to spoil it by telling all so I will leave it there. pThere#x27;s an appearance by Kal Penn of Van Wilder fame here too. (He played Taj the..."Take it through the car wash"... foreign exchange student) His is a very minor role though in comparison.pI recommend this to any fan of a good rom/com. I even made my hubby watch it and he actually enjoyed it!!! Move over Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan, there#x27;s new talent on the romantic block!pIt#x27;s well worth every penny because it left me feeling like this... :o)pEnjoy! A Must Have!

Dell (London) Great chick flick br /I hadn't heard of it then saw it on the TV, was so good I came on line to buy it!! very good rom-com February 27, 2006 kelly (London) 9 out of 11 found this review helpful what i love about this film is the very obvious chemistry between the lead characters. it#x27;s worth watching, if you#x27;re the chick-flick type. there were more than enough moments in this movie that will make you smile and laugh. plus, maybe reminisce about your own experiences.
