Yikes. First off, I only watched this movie because it was on while visiting friends. It also bears noting that none of us really really wanted to see it. I blame Dara for telling me that this movie was actually pretty cute. What she failed to reveal was that only the first eight minutes were cute. After that, it was a rapid descent into hell, complete with every single romcom formula ever. Terrible, terrible, terrible. The list of people in this terrible movie includes wonderful actors John Lithgow, Joan Cusack, John Goodman, Hugh Dancy, and Isla Fisher, among many others. My favorite part of the movie was the 800 times that there was a character that actually spoke the words that every viewer was supposed to understand from the situation. It's called "show, don't tell". And this movie failed to do even that.
Awful. Do not go see this film.
Score: 2/10
