Ward (Portsmouth, UK) 23 out of 28 found this review helpful This film is a cocktail of home truths, humourous anicdotes, and cold hard reality. The women in the film have their own complicated love lives, ranging from Gigi's (Ginnifer Goodwin) almost obsessive persuit of The One, and Janine's (Jennifer Connelly) stressing over her husbands lies, though she seems more concerned over his closet smoking habit than his closet mistress. Beth (Jennifer Aniston) is in a rutted relationship which isn't progressing in her preferred direction, and Mary's (Drew Barrymore) obsession with MySpace is putting her in touch with some very dodgy characters, alongside all the usual perils of online relationships. The last character is Anna (Scarlet Johansson) who is a step away from the other leading ladies in that her love triangle contains one too many men. She has a guy who loves her, but who she doesn't love, and a man who she loves, but who shouldn't love her. I'll leave it there!! br / br /The tastefully cast and well known men Neil, Ben and Alex (Ben Affleck, Bradley Cooper and Justin Long respectivly) are three of the four main men (the name and actor of the fourth me escapes me, sorry!). Each is coupled or involved with the above women at some point in the film, and again I won't say anything else for fear of ruining the plot. br / br /The storyline of the film is quite 'Love Actually'-esque in that it uses lots of mini storys (some of which link up) to form the whole. The characters interweave and have small connections with each other which is quite intreaging. The situations that the women find themselves in (apart from Janine's) are often so close to home that you find yourself blushing with familiarity, or cringing at seeing a deja-vu scenario from the outside. A couple of times the 'Oh my cod, I've done that...' moment hit me, especially with Gigi, who analyses everything a guy does. But the fact that so many people can relate to moments in the film is probably key to his success. br / br /'He's Just Not That Into You' made me laugh and cry in equal measures. There is enough sympathy generated for certain scenarios, like Beth's sister's husbands' slothen behaviour, to make them really realistic. Beth's desire to get married will also mirror for several women watching. The delicate in-and-outs of relationships are examined, and it is refreshing to see this from another perspective. In one sense this is a usual rom-com, in that the ending is mostly happy, but the route taken to get there is what makes the film different from others. br / br /I thorooughly enjoyed this film, and its one of the best I've seen in a while. The performances of the actors/actresses were first rate, even Ben Affleck (often critisised for the quality of his performances) has pulled it out of the bag. Drew Barrymore's character had more of a back bench than the others, but she did it well. For me, Scarlet Johansson and Ginnifer Goodwin completely made the film. br / br /The beauty with 'He's Just Not That Into You' is that we've either been through the situations or at least know someone who has, so it is incredibly easy to identify with. I recommend this film to everyone who likes their girly films to be thoughful without being complicated, and lovely without being cheesy. Top marks :-) I really loved it! April 28, 2009 F. Taylor (England) 12 out of 19 found this review helpful I don't understand why everyone critises this film so much. Me and my sister absolutely loved it. It's not too long, it does have depth, good characters, funny parts and dramatic parts. br /In my opinion it's definitely better than the book, the book has some good parts but the movie brings the message across in a much better way. br /I've read people say it's embarrassing and some parts make them cringe because it's reminded them of themselves or for whatever reasons. I think some people embarrass too easily and need to stop worrying what people think. br / br /I urge you to watch this movie and decide for yourself. Everyone has different tastes anyway but don't be put off by the bad reviews, I thought this movie was great. Love it September 18, 2009 Zoe Goodwin (Uk) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful This film is brilliantly set out, with all the different stories it really keeps you interested. br /Very clever movie. Its Brilliant May 16, 2009 R. Blackman (West Yorks) 2 out of 4 found this review helpful This is one of the best films ever made. My friends were crying at some parts and laugh out loud in others. Its brilliant. One to watch! June 3, 2009 M. Anthony (n. ireland) 1 out of 5 found this review helpful After reading the reviews already given, I had to write my own.
