So, I bumped into this, had a look at the cast and decided to give it a try. I will say it immediately, it’s a chick flick. The plot is basically about relationships between men and women. A few stories are being followed, but none of them is directly related to each other although they have common characters. It’s about reading of one’s doings relationship-wise and generally trying to find the one. There’s laughter, romance… the normal Hollywood package, but I think it was good actually and made pretty much feet on the ground instead of making it a whole lot more. Pretty incredible how invisible this movie has been with the actors and actresses in it.

Ben Affleck we all know from for example Good Will Hunting and other big movies. Scarlett Johansson is a true Hollywood babe and yet a good actress from movies like The Island. Jennifer Connelly, Justin Long, Jennifer Aniston and Drew Barrymore don’t really need any instructions, nor does Bradley Cooper. But Kevin Connolly is perhaps a new one for the ones into movies. He’s one of the guys in the TV series Entourage so people watching that serie will surely recognize him. I know I did.

Pros:
+ cast is really good… Affleck, Johansson, Connelly, Cooper, Long, Aniston, Barrymore, Connolly. Impressive? Oh yea.
+ good view on relationships, or in starting them

Cons:
- a bit cheesy I guess, but it’s not as cheesy as you’d think. I suppose the topic is a bit cheesy :)
